RE: Help with Bi plane, ailerons not working right

the servo has small short linkages to connect to the torque rods, they have those plastic keeper things that screw down on the road and I have clevises on the servo arm, nothing seems to be sliiping there.

Did you figure this out yet???

Just wondering if you finally got around to moving the linkage or not or ??

I think its the linkage or something, I flew it today, it flew well but when you make a left turn it does not center back, it stays in that left turn tilll you give right. I made right rolls and it centers back to middle fine from right just not left.

Recovery from a bank is basically a function of dihedral, and that airplane doesn't actually have any in the wings. And it has very little dihedral effect from the location of the two wings relative to the fuselage. So it's not going to right itself from most banks. The reason it recovers one way better than the other has to do with the prop and it's thrust angles.

If I were you, I'd re-rig the horns like iron eagle suggests, and see how that helps.
