| Closeup of the control stick mixer |
Installed connecting rods and control stick pivots to mixer. Spent a few hours fixing problems with binding, which was caused by tiny misalignment of parts. Found that the ends of the control stick pivots were slightly angled out, so bent those straight which helped tremendously. Once all parts were moving freely without any binding, they were greased and assembled. Castle nuts and cotter pins were used to fasten these parts. Hours: 3.5
