Don't know if this would work in your situation, but it's an easy way to do this if it will Bob Pastusek -----Original Message----- From: Lancair Mailing List [mailto:lml@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of Bryan Wullner Sent: Friday, January 23, 2009 5:47 PM To: lml@lancaironline.net Subject: [LML] Balancing MKII Elevators My Left Elevator has the weight in the counterbalance and because of the trim tab and servo Its out of balance. Im not sure how I can balance it. Its gonna take more than 1 lb. If I attach both elevators together at the bellcrank I might be able to get the two balanced easier together as one unit. But as far as balancing the left one alone I'm not sure if I can do it. Right one is fine. Any ideas, suggestions? Bryan -- For archives and unsub http://mail.lancaironline.net:81/lists/lml/List.html
