I seem to be posting alot, but it's always something new. When I drilled my control sticks for the wire exit, I drilled about .5 inches above where the pivot tube ends inside the stick. Today I realized that when the sticks are pulled full aft, the holes for the wires are even with a cross tube in the fuselage and the wires hit the tube. Now my plane is no where ready to be rigged. My question is, how close do the sticks come to this tube in a properly rigged aircraft?

You will probably find the answer in the Elevator installation section in your manual. It should have the instructions on how to set the up elevator limit.

On a model 4 the stick touches the front of the seat which sits on the tube you are concerned about. I didn't happen to check that on the one completed series 7 I saw the other day.
