Variations on control sticks
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:51 pm
As my control sticks were hitting the panel before reaching the stop mounted
on the floor, I assumed that the sticks must have been modified with later
kits. Since I have seen a couple of Rebels on the net with sticks which have
a more pronounced bend rearward, I wrongly made the assumption that if I
ordered new ones from Darryl, I would get the revised ones. So the ones I
finally received were the same as the ones I had been given with kit #56.
Rule of thumb, ask twice, spend once. Obviously I didn't ask where these
"uber-bent" sticks came from.
Two questions, 1) does anyone else have the clearance problem between the
top of the stick and the panel? And 2) if there is plan to make modified
sticks or a source, can someone share the details?
