I can confirm that I have needed ALL aileron movement.
My home strip is an agg strip, 23-05. no x strip. very prone to x winds.
Having many trees and buildings, when retuning home from a trip,and found
high wind gusty x wind on 23, coming over the trees and in south Wester, I
used full aileron co
I say, "most definitely". There will be times of quite gusty crosswinds when
you may wish you had MORE travel. Flight near stall is a different animal than
cruise flight. There is not nearly the air loads on the controls.

Hi everyone: I saw the videos of how little a KR pilot moves his control
stick to fly a kr. My question is, do you ever need to use the complete
travel length of the control stick? The elevator has a + - 30 degree
travel, do you use the complete 30 degree to land the KR?
Thank You Larry Elrod

If I were installing my own controls, all of them would be pushtube type,
save the rudder. The easiest thing to do for the ailerons is to install a
bellcrank on the rear of the main spar, to transfer

Hi all
I am ready to start rigging my rudder.
The question I have is to swage or not to swage?
I would like to use swage fork ends on the end of my cables but in
parenthesis it says "can be swaged on to cable with a special tool."???
the nicopress tools and swage tool don't say nothing about use

Hi all,
I'm making my dual control stick assy the same as Mark Langford's from bits
and pieces around the workshop, and I have some 1 1/8" T6 alum tube I was
thinking of using for the stick.
Has anybody any ideas as whether this is going to be too large Diameter to be
practical?? by this I m
RE: 1 1/8" T6 alum tube..by this I mean is it going to be too bulky and
get in the way all the time?
The only things that I can think of is that it will affect is the size that
everything else may need to be and the clearance you will have between it
and the floor for running your cable or t
you might consider that most handles are bored to 7/8 or 3/4 dia,soif you plan
to use a nice grip you may wish you went smaller with the control post

My stick is made of 1" 4130, but your 1 1/8" T6 , and only a foot or so
long, should be OK,
but I'm not an engineer.
Good luck with the project
