Piper single axis autocontrol question redux.

by "Mike Noel" <mikenoel@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 27, 2008 at 02:43 PM

Just to finish this thread, the fix for the bridle cable wraps slipping 
around the aileron servo capstan was relatively simple.  There is a
recessed 
set screw in the front face of the capstan holding the bridle cable
locking 
pin.  The mechanic backed out the set screw with a .050 allen wrench,
pushed 
in and held the bridle cable locking pin with several snaps of a dimpling 
tool (one of those tools you push until it snaps to create a dimple for a 
drill bit), and tightened the set screw while pressure was kept on the 
dimpling tool.  All of this was done with the bridle cable locking pin 
positioned so the pin was a the bottom of the capstan when the ailerons
were 
centered so the pin could not interfere with full aileron deflection.
