Hi Tony
I believe the fouling is between the bell crank and the TS05 push rod.
The following is a copy of a check to be undertaken as part of the final che
cklist:
Check that trim bellcrank does not contact TS05 push-rod when fully forward (
tab full down) and tailplane is trailing edge up. This can be checked by cyc
ling the trim motor through its range whilst holding the stick fully back, a
nd listening for any labouring.
In my aircraft I did have the problem, as I also didn't know about shortenin
g the clevis/fork ends. I therefore had to do the remedial work with the top
on and was working single handed through the fuselage access holes. Not a v
ery easy task to undertake. As Bud said there is not a big amount to be rem
oved from the clevis/fork ends, just enought to ensure you get no binding be
tween the belcrank and the TS05 push rod when tailplane and trim tab is in t
he configuration as described above.
Kind regards
Donald(G-PUPY) (Nearly flying, awaiting paperwork from LAA to conduct flight
testing)

the only thing better is to remove it from one and check the operational cl
earance as to whether it is necessary to do the other too.
