Great job, looks outstanding. That's also the best bell crank system I have seen done on a plane in a long time. The minute you mentioned U-Control I knew where you were coming from, I have also used U-Control items for builds and it makes things a lot better. LA engines, I love them, great bang for your buck. After using a bunch of them over the years I just pull them out of the box and use a touch of locktite on all four head screws and a dab on the back plate screws. I have never had the back plate come loose on one but on almost every one of them {first three} I have had the head screws come loose on break in runs, the bit of locktite cured that little problem. Fine looking plane!!!!
