Have a quick question, I'm re-installing my ailerons and forgot to mark the pushrod orientation. The shaft has a dog-leg, is the "long side" toward the aileron or the wing? (sorry, I also posted this in the Market Place section by accident)
Thanks, Jim S

Hi Folks. This thread is a bit old but only 6597 responded. My aileron push rods are opposite from 6597's. My ailreons have full travel without any interference and full deflection. I don't have any doubt that over the years, things might have been installed backward, but which one of is is correct? Thanks for your help,
Dave

I don't remember, and can't get to the plane right now, but I do recall that if you reverse them they just look wrong, at at least one of the limits.
