i have recently replaced the rudder cables after the port one started to
destrand just as it goes through the fin bulkhead. The cause appears to
be the fitting of two sleeves on the rudder end which hit the bulkhead
on full deflection (go and check yours). My aircraft has two turnbuckles
in the rear fuselage and when setting these up you need to use the ruder
pedal stops so shortening the cable may create trouble here.
Regards, john.

around the fuselage bottom of the XS with the extended tail wheel. So
far I have been using cushions to adjust the body. What are others
doing?
