 get the Ailerons set up with failed result. It is simply, I have too much 
down and not enough up on the both Ailerons.=C2- The results are=0A=0ASTB

Stops at 24 degrees before wings rigged and adjustments.=0A=0AOn trying to 
correct so there=C2- is less down throw by altering the long lateral push
rod in the wing in the opposite so it hits the stop, stopping the opposite 
aileron going down too far. OK now I measured the deflection it is now corr
ect from its new position Not Neutral but slightly up. Now to bring the ail
eron back to neutral I have to shorten the aileron link rod. On doing so it
 puts the aileron back to exactly where I started from ????=C2- Nothing g
ained at all just a waste of time. =0A=0AAll I have to do is to get less do
wn and more up.=C2- What am I missing ???=0A=0AAirEupora I have Used Buds
 method a few times now and yes it works every time for the first setup to 
get everything in the neutral position. BUT still too much DOWN and not eno
