Gary0747 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptor05121 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary0747 Posted November 6, 2018 Author Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonMuncy Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
