Wish I could find that picture!
I can't find a photo either, but this (above) describes it. The attach bolt is not tight, it acts as a bearing.

Default Rotary Potentiometer

Not my idea ( Weasel's idea) but another option is to use a long stem pot with a actuator arm on stem to flap tube actuator mount. Very easy to install and calibrate.

Default found this

A few minutes googling with bing I found the following video showing the POS-12 installed via Adel clamp to the flap tube & hinge.

The way Bill did it is pretty much what I did - just not quite so neat!

Here is mine, I'm sure I borrowed the idea from someone on VAF..Thanks. I got it tweaked to use almost, but not all, the travel of the pos 12

I did the same thing, I but too can't get the pos12 to travel the full path of the flap travel. My only covers about 85%. When I get some free time, I'm going to move it to another location.
