This week I worked on finishing up the flight control bushings, rods, brackets inside the fuselage. I was waiting until the canopy was on just in case it tweaked the airframe just a little. The controls are very sensitive to misalignment so I wanted to play it safe. Also the control sticks in the left right direction were a little tighter than I wanted so I spent some time trying to determine where the friction was coming from as technical didnt want me to disassemble the factory assembled sticks so that I could sand the bushings. Both sticks were getting friction due to the rear bracket which was a little over bent. When I pushed on it the controls noticeably became easier to move but I also measure it with a spring scale. The pain was I had to completely remove the sticks which are fanagled in their pretty good. After that I did the final assembly for the flaps and ailerons where you rivet the leading edge while constantly checking to make sure they have the correct twist to match the twist in the wings. I did have one rod end bearing that is mismanufactured and needs replacement. A nut just will not screw onto the end of the bearing.
