Futaba 8UA

[Wayne Galligan]

I fixed the problem last night by turning the elevator  pot till the high
and low rate matched.  I forgot all about that part of replacing the gimbals
till Troy
mentioned worn pots. I never use the high and low rates on elevator on my
pattern planes so the issue never came up.

Thanks all for the help,

Wayne
