 Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 7:52 pm Post subject: Cable Tensions |
 |
|
Can somebody tell me what cable tensions should be used on the elevator and rudder for the 701? I spoke with Caleb this morning and he said it was in the "Important Notices and other Building and Flying Information" on the ZAC website, but I cannot find anything. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

there are discussions and reference to it here
http://www.zenith.aero/
because of the offset geometry of the elevator cables, setting to a specific tension is not possible
rudder tension is best set with nosewheel off the ground, when tension will be maximum.

Dan. Just got off the phone with Caleb.
The cable tension for the Elevator is 20±5.
The cable tension for the Rudder is 30±5.
He says that its documented on the website for the 601 and 750 only...Geoff
