Europa-List: Why would ailerons drop when pulling Gs?

A while back I read that someone was having problems with a wing dropping
during stall, but only when pulling more than 1 G.

After
studying problem he determined than when pulling gs that the ailerons
dropped a bit (washin).

Cure was found by reflexing ailerons a
bit.

Was at hangar today and can't quite figure out why the
ailerons would drop when pulling gs??
Either the wing needs to grow
in length or the aileron pushrod needs to shrink.

Best I can
figure is perhaps when pulling gs the aileron plate at wing root moves
away from plate in fuse??

Perhaps it was a Classic that
identified this, I have an XS.

Can anyone explain why when
pulling posative gs the ailerons would washin?


Thx.
