Re: Control cable movement

Thank you Drew!!!

I will finalize my order! I decided to go with McFarlane as it seemed like they had better controls that were smoother and they have a veneer control knob for the throttle which I’m interested to try that out

Re: Propeller Advice for Lancair ES

I don’t know the size of my spinner. But I plan to go out there today and I could take some measurements. I think there’s a standard part number for it that might give the dimensions, but I’ll try to remember to take measurements of the diameter and the length. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pe...

Re: Aggressive Autopilot

Ok that’s good. Did you complete the ground setup and test.

Also does the system do these weird movements when you use the heading bug. Also how about when it does NAV only to a VOR? I am in knowing if it’s just acting weird with GPS steering commands.
