In cruise flight my yokes are perfectly aligned and neutral. However, I noticed that one aileron is slightly up while the other is slightly down (relative to the flaps) by an equivalent amount. Aircraft is coordinated with no roll tendency (flap adjustment is to spec).

If each aileron is adjusted toward a centered position by the same amount, would the rest of the "equation" remain unaffected (ie, yoke position).
