I believe that I pointed this out about 4 or 5 years ago. I found that the distance between the cables on the stick end, is not the same as the distance between the cables on the elevator bellcrank end. If they are not the same, you don't have a parallelogram, and there is no way to avoid having one going very tight and the other one going slack when the elevator is being deflected. I believe that one was 2.5" and the other was 3". When converting to the dual stick and push rod thru the spar, to cables, I found this and corrected it on my plane.

Heath - Lexington, SC -------Original Message------- I too found a BIG discrepancy with the controls of the elevator. It seems the cables were apparently different lengths, so that at full aft actuation, one cable went partially slack, while full forward both were tight.
