Lou,
I don't want to start a "flame" war; however, what advantage does a yoke have over a stick? I have flown both and prefer a stick. (http://tinyurl.com/yc6pog) The only advantage a yoke has is that it doesn't interfere with a woman's long skirt. Wayne HP-14 "6F" http://www.soaridaho.com/ "Lou" wrote in message ups.com... Well, here I go again, thinking instead of doing. My plane call for control sticks just like 99% of the homebuilts out there. But I've been considering using a control yoke (maybe cessna 150 modified) instead. To get from the yoke controls to the push/pull tubes in the wing I may have to use Bowden cables. I may be wrong on the name, but basicly similar to bicycle brake cables. Has anyone used these kind of cables successfuly? Or has anyone incorporated a control yoke instead of control sticks? Lou |
