• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

The old setup on my S-1S was a drilled bolt attached to the control horn thru which the bowden cable was passing. When torquing the nut of that bolt along with a special washer, the cable was bent and secured in place. I'm looking for something easier to install/adjust so I was looking at the wire grip Spruce sells + clevis. Does anybody use this for elevator trim? Any reason not to use it?

Thanks,
