On my 1700 I had to assemble everything together after it was delivered. So far the wings are on but I have a slight problem. Right now the ailerons are only loosely connected so that I do not loose the hardware. I am having trouble understanding part of the plans showing how to connect them. Can somebody please share a photo of how to do this since I am having a brain fart?

Do you need to see inside the cockpit or outside at aileron?

I notice a slight dogleg in the aileron cable in Brian's pics, a few inches short of the cable-tip. Is that normal ? I thought it might hinder the inner cable's free movement.
Brian, this question is just for my education. You have a great project going there, I appreciate the fact that you spend a lot of time in sharing your build's progress with the forum.

Dear bigbrixx1, is this the standard aileron connection or custom built? Do you maybe know which specs this joint rod head has? Many Thanks,

Vmax, I,m more familiar with the Airbike so take this with a grain of salt, it does appear to be the standard connection and it also looks like a pic of the elevator.
