Safety wired the prop bolts, then decided to tackle the stick interference problem. I was going to wait until the wings were fitted to see the amount of aileron deflection, and then shorten the sticks if needed. But thinking about it, they dont need to be this long anyway. Problem is the grips are glued on, I hate removing things that I thought were finished. To my suprise and great joy, after a generous dose of heat they came of using a hardwood drift and mallet. I have reduced them by two inches, but I will leave them off for now.
