Gary0747 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Posted November 6, 2018 I searched the MS previous posts on control locks and found little more than bunge cords and straps between yokes. I was wondering if anyone has found or built anything better?
Raptor05121 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Posted November 6, 2018 I've considered the control forces so heavy they're really not needed on Mooney's. Mine is outside sometimes and even in winds they never seem to move.
Gary0747 Posted November 6, 2018 Author Report Posted November 6, 2018 (edited) I have seen it several times when wind gusts in a storm front and one time from prop blast from another aircraft that cause elevator and aileron movement enough to hit the stops. Not good Edited November 6, 2018 by Gary0747
DonMuncy Posted November 6, 2018 Report Posted November 6, 2018 Take a look at my albums for the control lock I built. It works very well. It requires the right horn of the pilot's yoke and the left horn of the copilot's yoke to have no obstructions in the hollow portion. Only a mild PITA to build unless you have excess time on your hands.
