I am using the pullies on the rear of main spar as in the plans. My problem is i don't seem to have enough control movement. I can move the sticks about 3 inches to the left but very little to the right. i have about an inch of movement at the REB that connects to the aileron hinge. Is this sufficient? I would appreciate any help you could offer.

From your description it is hard to determine your problem. Go to my web site http://mywebpage.netscape.com/n886mj/homepage.html and click on the controls section and you can see what I did. Hope this helps. Mark Jones > BlankHey Net Experts, > > I am using the new airfoil so have moved my aileron cranks to the front of > the rear spar.

But I would start by centering the stick, and put both the left and right bellcranks in approx. the same neutral=20 position then hook up or snug up the cables. As the cables=20 get tighter the sys will have more resistance so pick a happy medium.=20 Dale Baldwin, KR-2 ATL ----- Original Message -----=20 From: crsroads=20 To: krnet@mailinglists.org=20 Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 1:26 PM Subject: KR> aileron controls Hey Net Experts,=20 =20 I am using the new airfoil so have moved my aileron cranks to the = front of the rear spar.
