I had the identical issue and installed a piece of fairlead material at the contact point. Fortunately this is an area that is easily inspected for wear of the fairlead or cable. Hopefully updated drawings have corrected this issue.

Mornin' all -
I was trial-rigging the cables last night in preparation for installing the Trio
autopilot servos and found that the upper elevator cable just barely rubs against
the bottom of the flanged hole in the seat back, maybe deflected 1/4" from
straight.? Re-checking the position of the fairleads just aft of the seat back
found everything per the drawings, and the cable runs through the upper elevator
fairlead hole as drawn.? Looking at a few builders' web sites, I don't
see this condition.? By the way, the arm length of the control stick is 120 mm
from pivot to cable hole.
Has anyone else seen this, and installed another piece of fairlead material onto
the seat back hole to prevent metal contact?
Thanks -
David Glass
