I detect that the front cables tighten and loosen at different rates betweenfull back and full forward on the control stick. I wonder if anyone hasoffset the cable attachpoints on the stick to account for this and keep thetension even?Ted BrousseauNaples, FL________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Elevator control cablesI played at mock-ups with this for a long time and got no where. The only conclusion I came up with is that there ought to be a double type bell crank----such that the bell crank part going to the front cables faces them perpendicular ( that is tipped -top forward,bottom back) and then on the same shafta bellcrank perpendicular to the rear elevator cables. I havnt gotten this far yet- just at this point an idea.Henry Williams ________________________________________________________________________________Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2004 08:46:26 -0700 (PDT)
