Norman,I put stops for aileron deflection only, as per my DAR. Small wood blocksglued in place on the floor, topped with leather for the torque horns to"bump" on. They hit the blocks 'just before' the lower part of the aileroncontacts the wing. As for the elevator/rudder, explained that they all hadcomplete free movement with no possibility of interference with each other,so the DAR accepted that.walt evansNX140DL----- Original Message -----
