Travel Limits
« on: January 01, 2023, 05:45:07 PM »
Hello All,
Can someone please show me or tell me where I can find the travel limits on the control surfaces for the LE. I have managed to get 30 degrees+ down elevator and 28 degrees up. Also, since I now have started on my wings. What are those travel limits for the aielerons?
Thank You!
Tony

Bob Wood gives the following, and his newer posts indicate his plane flies well. "I took measurements over the lunch hour. Aileron travel is 21 degrees up and 15 degrees down. Left and right wing only differed by 1 degree. I used the Double eagle bell-crank drawing to the plans exactly."  Tom H posted "my aileron travel as +24* and -19*".

Page 21 of the plans state "Set Rudder stops to avoid Elevator - Set elevator stops 8" up & 7" down"
