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

Hi Phil, Only just started my KR build, I can understand your reasoning for your reply. I think what you maybe asking for is a standard question in a standard configuration. Like most KR builders a lot of these designs have been changed to suit their own likes, as you are with your longer stic

Many of you guys have the advantage of having completed your planes and others have not. 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 yo

Ditto to comment already made. Adding a 2nd stick does not change aileron travel unless you change the pivot geometry. Stay with the same measurement, Pivot pin to aileron cable attach point, which is about 2.75"-3" on the KR. -Original Message- From: Matt Elder Sent: Wednesday, August

Or... You could calculate it if you had measurements from a drawing Or... You could draw the system to scale and measure the travel directly. Or... You said that you were removing a center stick. Assuming it worked, you could just use it to measure, and/or keep the same pivot geometry. This, I

Ok, so let me get this straight, I need to build a stock one first, take the measurements then scrap it and build the new one? If you saw what I had you'd understand why I'm asking for cable travel. I just hate doing things twice (or more) when it's not necessary. But I guess I'll have to.
