#04 Flight Controls Continuation B

In this video I am connecting the Control Column to the Bellcrank by installing the Pivot-to-Bellcrank connector which will then connect directly to the Aileron Bellcrank. I also begin to work on the Flap handle and that’s when things sour a bit. I encounter a problem while drilling a 1/16” hole (which may not have been necessary) through the detent pin. This is where I end up stopping due to the breakage of a drill bit inside the detent pin! I broke a few bits in this video and I learned to use much less pressure while utilizing the longer (6”-12”) aviation drill bits.

I hope that you will enjoy the video, possibly learn something or just enjoy watching me progress on the kit. Don’t forget to Subscribe, Like & tickle the little bell for instant content releases.

Have a great day & I look forward to seeing you on the next video.
