Great Planes Tiger Mouth problem
I am finishing the Tiger Mouth and in rigging the control push rods a I have found that the control wire pushrod guide tubes have worped badly .
When the control wires are inserted into the guide tubes their is unacceptable drag.
I would appreciate any suggestions on how to correct this problem without opening up the fuselarge.
Thank you,
Joe

For the benefit of the uninitiated among us, the " Tiger Mouth " is the souped up, aerobatic version of the GP Tiger Moth

RE: Great Planes Tiger Mouth problem
Slide the pushrod through the tubes and then pull the tubes from the fuselage and reinsert new tubes. Make sure you put the pushrods through before taking out the tubes so you will have a guide to get the tube out the back slots. Does this make any sense? Dont know how else to explain it? Or you could try the flexrod/cable through those worped tubes
