Onex Aileron Paddle Adjustment
Hey Paul...….I may have misspoke about reaching through the lightening hole.....you can't do that. I did my Onex a year ago and I was trying to remember the sequence to adjusting the paddles.
As I recall now......I reached though the "inspection hole" with my Allen wrench and the "jam nut" that I backed off was the one on the OUTSIDE, not the inside one...…….which will let me crank the adjusting screw.
Do NOT replace those factory spec'd "low profile fiber nuts" that are used for regular jam nuts. You don't want one of those "backing off" in flight.
I will go out to my hanger tomorrow and take a close look at how I made the adjustments.
Why don't you email me direct and I can maybe send some photos of that. I don't know how to post photos on this site. gdbaxter78@gmail.com
