Build it in off center so you can service it. It will also clear any future autopilot actuator.

Hello!

Anybosy has updated pictures, dimensions of cables or any other info for the install? I have bought the firgellli actuator and I am ready to build the system, but I want to see what everyone has done.

Thanks!

Tony

Tony,
If you look at this thread in it's entirety I think you have what you need .. the attach from the actuator to the flap cables is captured early on (3/8 Bolt, bushings, 1/8 alum stock, 1/4 Bolts, AN115 shackles, and cable thimbles and sleeves. Later on you see the attach from the airframe to the actuator (1" angle, 3/8 Bolt)
