Does the big green cable make the elevator 'stiffer' in movement for you folks with the manual trim? The elevator movement on my 6A is a little too stiff for my tastes (haven't flown it yet, talking about just movement on the ground), and the only thing we can think of that is causing it is the big green trim cable. When you move the elevators up and down, you can see the cable being moved a little back in the tail, which I think may be causing the stiff movement. The 9A I fly has electric trim and the elevator movement on it is smooth as glass - no stiffness.. Just wondering if it;s the trim cable that could be the culprit?
