Just wanna ask the forum before I do too much head scratching. After completing (nearly) my torque tube assembly, I am wondering how much stick throw anyone else has in the pitch direction. As an exact plans build, no substitutions of tube sizes, I have +/- 18deg of throw available. I could coax out another degree with some boot massaging. I can see that the mechanical advantage of the reverser puts a little more pushrod throw with the shorter pivot arm, Appx 4” stick pivot arm and 3” reverser arm. Plans call for +/-25deg of elevator travel.
Just curious if anyone can put an inclinometer (or iPhone has a pretty slick LEVEL function on their Measure app) on their stick for comparison. No need to level your ship, just a total movement range would suffice. Thanks in advance!!
