Hello all,
I just mounted the elevators on the HS and would appreciate some feedback on proper fit. With the rod-ends set to the plans-specified minimum distance, the elevators contact the HS skin just as they reach the maximum allowed up-travel (30 degrees, according to the plans).
I can't find anything in the plans that calls for a minimum distance between the elevator and HS skins at maximum elevator travel. Seems like there should be, so am I missing something? Is this the interference that Van's mentions in the instructions for fit-checking the elevators?
Thanks in advance,
Dave
