2.8.3 Aileron:
The control stick is attached to a torsion tube. This torsion tube drives two cables via
a bellcrank. The cables are re-directed by two pulleys mounted on the cross-rod of
the canopy roof frame and routed to the aileron quadrant. From the quadrant, the
ailerons are actuated via two aileron rods and a bellcrank per wing.
