So I am currently replacing the universal joint on the yokes and figured I should verify that the ailerons are rigged right while I am messing with it .
We'll I currently only have the co pilots side yoke reattached to the chain so the chain is still loose. ( waiting for machine shop on pilots side) There is a third sprocket on the tee bar that the chain is still engaged on which is holding the cables out to the wing tight yet.
We'll I made the bell crank neutral tool per the maintenance manual and have question on this. I the tool installed on both sides and can move the aileron up or down maybe 2 inches before the other side contacts the tool and rib. Now as I stated above I am still missing one control yoke but I really don't think that effected the cables out to the wing.
But shouldn't the ailerons be pretty much locked with both sides having the aileron bell crank tool installed?
I'm wondering how out of rig my ailerons are now that I see this.
