I had the same problem. I took two blocks of foam about 2" x 3" x 1/2" and
sanded
them so that they had a nice curve over one of the large surfaces. Then I
covered
them with several layers of bid and removed the foam after cure. With some
trimming of the excess around the edges to leave a flange, I had a pair of
nicely-shaped bulge covers. I then cut a small hole in the fuselage bottom
immediately
under where the control system was hitting, reinforced the area, and
bonded the bulge covers on.
I don't have my manual handy, but my control system was hitting the fuselage in
the rear, not the front. I don't remember which piece is CS08.

Good Day to all....especially those that are flying,
I have just completed installing the cockpit module into the canoe. That
Redux job was an interesting ballet of asses and elbows, but it got done with
only
one minor(?) hitch. Now when I move the control column far left and right I
get an interference about halfway to the stop. After careful looking I have
found that both CS08 cranks are pushing against the bottom skin. Did I do
something wrong? Has this happened to anyone else?
