Gert,
You have a number of push pull rods, depending on where you fix it, the
backlash,free play, slop, spil,slr (dansk ;-) ) can be in the remaining
connections btw trailing edge and fixed point, including the aileron
hinge itself. If you can put a finger f.ex. on the joint btw aileron
and pushrod and wiggle the bits youll be able to feel the play if there
is any.
Continue doing that on all connections until you have eliminated all
play within reason....
Alex, kit 529-
Wings to be closed, rudder and ribs to fit, engine and instruments to
buy and fit...paint and upholstery........and then all the little things
on the wishlist!
(Glider quality finish, magnetic fuel level indication, lots of clever
and light glass in the panel, an emergency pop out ram air generator and
a rubber band aileron trim..I will probably have to wait a few years for
the Stirling engine to be available so the 912S and VP prop is going to
drive it in the beginning )
