Default RE: My ailerons don't move the same ...

Perhaps Im stating the obvious but just in case it was omitted I will mention that I think you should have the servo hooked up and Tx/Rx powered on and trim set at neutral when installing the servo arm. If you dont have the power on, the servo may not actually be at it neutral position which is where you want it when you install the servo arm. I dont want to mess up Minns excellent information here. Personally I do all of my hooking up and adjusting with the system powered on. The only thing I MIGHT turn off for is to tighten a servo screw so I dont strip a gear.. anyways I quitely bow back out if Im out of line..


Also Minn,

Is the reason his aileron "torque" arms arent even because they were glued to the ailerons at different angles? If so when you bend one wont you distort the height of the control arm a little? I think under the circumstances he has no choice but to bend it but Im just checking to see if its just me or it was originally glued in a little out of line?
