assume you are talking about the control horn clevis. I use MK control horns as
well as the control horn clevis and ball bearing rod adjuster. If you are using
the MK control horns and you need to make a half turn adjustment you can remove
the control horn, attach the clevis and reattach the control horn to the control
surface. It's a bit clunky but it works.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=240251818-21012004>By the
way if you are also using the ball bearing rod adjuster make sure you have
the open side facing up. There is a lip on the nylon piece that the bearing
seats against. This lip has to be facing the servo horn. If it is not facing the
servo horn the nylon piece can separate from the bearing leaving the
bearing and screw attached to the servo horn. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I'm using some MK ball bearing
connectors on my plane now and have a few questions for those that use them.
When installed on the elevator, I only have the resolution of 1 full
turn because the direction the small Philips head screw must pass
through. Are there any tricks to working around this? The aileron
install seems fine as you can access the screw head from any direction.

are there any improvements, maintenance, or things to be aware of? Has
the screw ever backed out?</SPAN></FONT></P>
