I do not see anything in these updates relating to light elevator forces which is something I would rather see changed. So far I have no plans to incorporate any of these 2012 updates into my already built XL. -------- David Gallagher Zodiac 601 XL-B: flying, 200+ hours now Next project under construction: Aircamper Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=368101#368101 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:38:05 PM PST US From: Terry Phillips Subject: Re: Zenith-List: Re: Control Balance Thanks very much, Dave For the life of me, I cannot see how one gets from the xl-up-drawings page to the update pdf. I guess I'm not nearly as good at navigating the Zenithair site as I thought I was. Scratch building a new control horn should not be difficult. It's just a case of deciding whether it is worth the bother. I'm kind of thinking that it might be worth doing since I wouldn't have to do anything except fab the new control horns.. My thanks to Ron for pointing out this change and to you for the document link.
