Brief Description:  Set up elevator controls

Installed aft elevator control rod,as you can see in the photos I had to make a pattern up for reworking the Left hand rod to control surface horn.When the rod was offered up to the control horn it was approx 10 mm inboard of the horns surface,to far to pack with washers.Anyway the plan is to rebend the control tube and off set the bend a further 10 mm outboard.I have heard people having this problem before and when Ive fully investigated the problem it appears the two chromemoly ears that support the intersection of the two contol rods in the aft fuselage have not been welded central on the airframe.....Ummmmmm.Yet to rebend when I get a pipe bender but confident this will rectify the situation.Trim tab servo installed
