I would like to buy a good aileron control rod with it's heim ends for the right side of my Long EZ. (The short one, from bellcrank in the wing into the cowl) Also, could any reader please confirm the nominal center to center dimension of same. Thanks, Bob Mencl

I read somewhere in the CP's that the heim connectors were supposed to be replaced with larger ones.  Instead of AN 3, . .they were to be AN 4's now.  Izzat true ?  Is everyone doin' it ?   Is it neccessary ?

It is true that the change came out in the CPs.  I'm still on the fence about the change and have not made the change.  I am interested in other's opinions.

Robert,

Do you have a set of plans ?

Glennbob, no, I don't have prints, but as that is the only part I am lacking, it seems unnecessary. I just need the dimension. My rotary conversion is almost done. Bob in Houston
