Default Advice for building and flying the avistar

tsawyer148, nice seeing you around too...

I usually hang around in the other forums, but always check here to see if there is anything that I can babble on about... Sometimes, it actually seems like I know something over here.

Now, on to the clevis thing.

I usually stick something through them to turn the clevis just like the other guys. But most of the time I use metal clevis's, so it's incredibly easy to turn them...If it bothers you that much, go for the metal ones with a nut. That little thingie that goes across the clevis and goes through the control horn won't bend or break like it does on the plastic ones. It really makes things a lot easier...

if your using the quick connector on the servo arms just loosen the screw and move the rod thats what i do
You should NEVER use those quick connector/easy connectors on the elevator, ailerons, or rudder. Even on a trainer...It's ok for the nose wheel, but I would really avoid them for everything else...
