Phil, the side sticks were set up using a 3/4 in 7075 alum rod under the arm rests between new and old truss members with a bearing on each end. A bell crank at the lower end for the aleron cable that runs in front of the rear spar. (I moved the aleron control cable from behind the front spar to just in front of the rear spar) The sticks are made from 1/8 inch x 1inch 6061 alum one on each side of the 3/4 inch rod with elv control cable 3 inchs above the pivot point of the 3/4 inch rod then returned by way of a 2 inch pully back through the center of the side sticks down under the arm rest to another set of pullies then to the rear with another set of pullies redirecting the cables to the elv. bell crank. I don't have drawings but may have some pictures. If I can find them I will send them to Omar in the next few days.
