I have some pictures on my web site of the control tubes etc.Have a look at
http://www.cpc-world.com/main.php?inser ... 03.php.The only thing I did notice was that the rod ends on the tube under the rearseat did not allow full stick side by side movement with out undoing the rodend a fraction of a turn.There were plenty of threads left and there was no way it was going to fallout so I left it as is. Not problems in use.I think I used 1/2 inch tubing if I remember correctly.CheersPeterWonthaggi Australiahttp://

Ken.1/2" .035 tubing will be sufficient. Use quality rod-end bearings. Keep the control movement ratio the same as the plans.On NX18235 we constructed the pivot point aft of the seat to resist lateral movment.Sorry, no pictures.Greg C.Digging out from 20" of fresh snow in Minneapolis. ----- Original Message -----

John,I left the push rod in the hole shown. The stick was right in the gut on landing (except when I fluffed it!!!) and felt fine in general flying.The bell crank holes were as plans.CheersPeter
