No, I'm using the MK bellcrank.
   
  If the problem was only related to the length of the pushrods, then when I re-trim the knife edge performance should return to normal. Thats not the case. The plane pushes to the bottom in the cold and is dead straight on hot days.

  I noticed recently that I need to add a bit of down trim as the air temperature drops....maybe as much as 4 beebs going from 30+ days to 15C. That upsets the knife edge trim on the aircraft. 
   
  Is that normal, or do I have something set a bit marginally, like CG or wing incidence?
   
  Do you guys typically have a "cold weather set-up" ?
   
  Colin.
