I'm rigging the controls in the -12 and thought I'd ask before drilling a couple of important holes.
I'm getting ready to drill the flaperon torque tubes and I have the controls locked in the neutral position per the plans. The torque tubes from the mixer to the rear are not aligned with one another. I can reason with myself that this is okay because the mixer arm is locked in it's most forward position and the right torque tube must swing in a wider arc as the mixer arm is moved aft.
However, before I drill these important holes. I wanted to make sure that the torque tubes should not be perfectly aligned with one another. I hate to take it all apart and double check the measurements only to find out that everything was correct. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
