Flap Cables

DSC05067

Today I installed the remainder of the flap control cables.  This picture is at the rear of the baggage area.  A single cable runs underneath to this triangle.  From there each cable goes up to pulleys then along the top of the fuselage to the wing to activate the flaps.

The triangle has 3/16″ holes in it but the turnbuckles were 1/4″.  Some people had just enlarged the two holes to 1/4″.  I decided to bush the turnbuckles down to 3/16″ instead.  This is the way it was designed to be done since the original holes were 3/16″ and the kit came with bushing material.
