Turnbuckle check.

[jak]

Hi guy's Jak again I forgot to mention in the las t message we are making a change to our preflight checklist. I have not as of yet looked at it to see where this is going to go but you can wright it in on your anywhere you want. It seems that when you fold the wings sometimes the cables will bind when folding back out. This needs to be checkedat every preflight, look at the turnbuckles and see if the cables are straight . If they did bind up just pull the long side and a gentil twist of the bound end will rectify the problem.  Thanks as always Jak.

I slid plastic tubing over mine to prevent that. You can also install "never kinks" when you swage the fittings that help prevent that.

Very nice Rick. I wish I had thought of that.
