This is the 396 that is the lower aileron pulley brackets correct?
�
Yes it does.� This is also part of the cause of the aileron slop in the Moose.� These lower pulleys flex and pull in and back when the tension gets tight on the cable.� Some guys have purchased extra 396's and put one on the front and back of the pulley to stiffen things up.� I did not do that but I made the support bracket (step 18, chapter 12, dated 7-11-02) out of steel instead of the raw stock .032 aluminum.� It helped a lot.�� I wish I had beefed up the upper rear aileron pulley's� better than what is in the plans - the ones that attach to the fuselage/wing root area - these pull the sides of the fuselage in slightly also contributing to the slop.� I have determined nearly all of the slop or play in the ailerons is in the cable and pushrods inside the fuselage - not a whole lot of play out in the wing torque tubes.
