10. Elevator Controls

Pulled all the parts requrired to assemble the control mixer.Reamed all holes. Cleaned up the threads on the pivot rod ends. Installed the lock nuts and fork ends. Attached the pivot rod to the mixer. Assemble the nylon blocks to the mixer and installed the assembly to the fuselage.

I'm not sure from the instructions if I have the correct number of penney washers installed and will check with the factory tomorrow. Also need to see if I have the correct bolt/nut orientation.

On a side note, while pulling the parts for the mixer assembly, I came across the "missing" flying tail fences. They were taped to the back of the instrument panel.
