3.5 System Description
3.5.1 Ailerons
The ailerons are located outboard of the flaps, with deflection accomplished by lateral
movement of either sidestick. Control inputs pass through a series of pushrods,
cables and pulleys to the control surfaces.
3.5.2 Rudder
Rudder deflection is accomplished through the left and right rudder pedals. Pedal
travel is four inches fore and aft of neutral. Control inputs pass from the rudder
pedals to the rudder control surface through a series of cables, pushrods and other
associated components.

Rudder pedals are individually adjustable fore and aft (1.75 inch travel) by depressing
a lever located above each pedal and pulling or pushing the pedals to adjust.
