Hi! Frans.
Just occurred to me .....are the bellcranks of equal leg, because if not
you may have one incorrect way round giving you unequal movements?

But how to adjust the port one? If I allow more up movement there, the
starboard aileron will get more down movement, and exceed the maximum
allowable down movement.
Somehow I just can't get both ailerons moving the same amount. I started
twice right from the start, with finally the same results.

And I have no balance weights hitting the skin, as I don't have the skin
yet on. This is why I'm trying to get the ailerons adjusted, now I have
still easy access to all parts.

Thanks,
Frans
