I didn't see that there was any discouragement in any post. Perhaps you lack the vocabulary to properly ask the question because a couple of us have answered it already as asked. Aileron cable travel as you ask is purely a function of the pivot radius and the angle of swing-a la the distance the Center of the cable eye will move... If that's not what you are looking for the you need to describe it better because that's what you asked. If that is what you are looking for the you already have your answer assuming you had a working system.... See previous posts.
There's no reason to bash anyone on the list because we answered a question you didn't know how to ask. If this didn't help, email me off list and ill give you my phone number and we can talk about it and perhaps resolve it that way.

I don't know why you join a list like this if you are not really going to help/share your knowledge and experience. Are you going to tell me I don't really want to know what I just asked? Really? Could you just remember back to the days when you were still building please and treat others the way you would want to be treated? Would you want to be encouraged or discouraged? Sometimes this list is really great but other times it's a real downer. Everyone told me how great KR builders were and how happy they are to help and answer questions. Really? <sigh> Did I ask for aileron travel? No, I asked for aileron cable travel. Two totally different things are they not? A builder will understand that these are totally different things. So, once again for the hard of hearing...I have built my own version of a dual stick aileron control system based on the stock geometry. Stick pivot to cable eye is 2.5", as spec'd out in my plan book. What is unknown is whether or not my stick will allow enough movement side to side to move the cables enough to get the ailerons to move the prescribed amount. Not having a working STOCK system to work from, I was just asking if someone with STOCK stick assembly would measure how far the cable travels during aileron deflection from stop to stop so I can tell if my clearances are ok. That's all. On , Pat and Robin Russo <patru...@myfairpoint.net> wrote: > Ditto to comment already made. Adding a 2nd stick does not change aileron > travel unless you change the pivot geometry.
