Default Piper single axis autocontrol question redux.

Just to finish this thread, the fix for the bridle cable wraps slipping
around the aileron servo capstan was relatively simple. There is a recessed
set screw in the front face of the capstan holding the bridle cable locking
pin. The mechanic backed out the set screw with a .050 allen wrench, pushed
in and held the bridle cable locking pin with several snaps of a dimpling
tool (one of those tools you push until it snaps to create a dimple for a
drill bit), and tightened the set screw while pressure was kept on the
dimpling tool. All of this was done with the bridle cable locking pin
positioned so the pin was a the bottom of the capstan when the ailerons were
centered so the pin could not interfere with full aileron deflection.
