Brief Description:  Machined one aileron bell crank

One of the bell cranks that came with the kit apparently missed a final machining step as you can see when comparing the two bell cranks. Tempting fate, I was lucky enough to be able to finish the final machining step and actually ended up with a press fit for the bushing while its sister bell crank required a bit of epoxy to make sure the bearing was securely mounted in place. The picture below shows a bolt holding both bearings in alignment while the epoxy cures.
