to add, this is not an area of rigging which (in my experience) I have ever
 had any problems,including rigging single handed. Technique I use is to fu
lly put on one tailplane, (starbord), attach the ts05 to lug on that side, 
then put on the port  tailplane to within about 1/4 inch of fully in, put t
he ts05  tube half into the lug on the port side, so the tube is now half i
n the lugs on both sides, and then push the port tailplane fully home.

I believe the factory jumped in on this one a few years ago, and warned
against such
A mod, I believe they were concerned with icing etc jamming up the trim
system, and thus 
Compromising the flight performance.

I may be wrong however

I seem to recall that someone on this forum mentioned adding small
lightweight discs near the ends of the TS05 cross-piece, inside the
fuselage. This had the dual effect of keeping the TS05 from moving sideways
while rigging and de-rigging (reinforcing that provided by the ply pieces
called out in the manual) and also improving the cosmetic appearance of the
slot in which TS05 operates.

I've searched the back postings using various keywords that I thought likel
y
but can't turn up what I'm looking for.

Would the original poster (or someone who remembers the posting) please hel
p
me find it? Date of the post, who made it, or a copy of the original would
all be very acceptable.

in friendship
