 |
|
The travel as measured on several aircraft Here is 1.25” down tab, or up trim. Measured from the elevator TE to the TAB TE.
The travel in degrees is between 25-28 on our aircraft, built as shown in the manual.
Will revise the manual to reflect what works in flight.
thanks

Hi Nick,
Thanks for following up on this but I'm still confused about your measurements, I attached a drawing I made of two control horn setups one modified and the other as per manual. You can see from this that it will be not possible to achieve anything close to 25 deg without big modification. I guess there must be something different in what you have and I have. Hope this drawing can help to find out what it is as the trim tab is in scale 1:1 what I have and how it is in the manual.
Thanks
