If the cracks are perpendicular to the grain they are not drying cracks, these

Should you varnish the wood before sticking foam to it? I would have thought
it might not bond so well with a layer of varnish in between.

Hi all
What diameter cable should I use for rudder controls. I cant find this info on
any of the plans or the manual, or should I just get new glasses!

Thanks for that.
Have you any opions on the merits of return springs on the pedals against a
cable run around?

Are you using a push rod system for aileron and/or elevator?
If so I would like to see your drawings if possible
Thanks

This looks very similar to what I'm planning to do for the elevator. As far
as I could see you stuck to the original cable design for the ailerons is
this correct? Have you any opinions on the merits of rod connections for the
ailerons?
