Subject: | Elevator and joystick throw |
Hi all,
I've just finished building my Firestar II tandem and in the process of test flying.
One thing that the person test-flying initially has noted is that the elevator
authority feels a little limited, and 'spongy' feel at either extreme.
Flying here in W Australia can be very turbulent and windy much of the time and
he feels an improvement in the elevator authority would be useful.
The joystick has a cable pivot point separation of 3" and the elevator control
horn a cable pivot separation of 4". So we are thinking of increasing the joystick
pivot separation to around 4" also. However, this would mean having to raise
the front of the seat about 1/2".
Has anyone found a similar problem and if so how did you address it?
Thanks
Steve
