Flaperon rigging?

Post by Tom Anderson » Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:07 pm

I'm trying to adjust the Flaperon travel from neutral to full flaps -
instructions say -20 to +35 - and I do get 55 degrees of overall travel, but
don't know if that's max/max deflection. If we are to have 5 degrees
negative flap, when mixer arm is set at 7/8" lower than hi-stop - what
should be the nominal full flap deflection at mixer arm low stop?

Presently when adjusted to -5 degrees at mixer arm hi-stop I get ~ 50
degrees of down flap at low mixer arm stop - that's way too much as the
control column locks up because of over center of the Flaperon control
horns.

Haven't figured out how to adjust this much Flaperon travel out of mixer
arm.

Any suggestions?
