I did a post Power Flow installation flight and the ailerons felt as if the autopilot was engaged. I pulled the circuit breaker and no change.
Any similar experiences? Any ideas?

I also worked with researchers at Penn State, Univ of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Univ of Utah, MIT, CalTec, UCLA, USC, Navel Post Graduate School, Lockheed Martin, UTSI, . . . . Hell, I don't remember them all. I also worked with Dr Price from Univ of Georgia on scramjets. We did a few scramjet studies. Not many.
At Edwards, I was a propulsion engineer on F-16s P&W engines. I saw the a few engine runs on the F119 at P&W Florida.
After all of that,I wouldn't give up working on the little Grummans. Plus, if I need something, I don't need to go through 6 months of requests. No morning meetings either.

Gary,
Is this an early serial number Tiger Tiger?
I had this happen.
It could have locked the ailerons up.
It turned out to be the roller pin bearings in the chain drive sprockets and idlers. The factory workers did not grease the brand new bearings on some of the Tiger Tigers.
I'll forward the email I sent last year.
Better not fly it again until you know what it is

I'll let the owner know. Â Thanks. Â I'll let everyone know what I found once I get into it. Â Too bad it's suck a pain in the ass to get to. Â
