OK... I am feeling like an idiot this morning. I am in the process of making new cables to attach my control sticks in my Exp. Clipper build to the ailerons cables in my wings. As a side not I had to add pulleys inside the fuselage as when Charlie built this fuselage he had standard cub routing of the cables up the front strut. I am using extended pacer wings with the aileron cables coming out of the aft wing root area. The cable that I am making this week will go from my control sticks to the side of the cockpit, under the seat along the sidewall then up the sidewall behind the door frame and out of the fuselage at the same point the pacer cable would exit. It appears on the drawing that this cable should be 1/8 inch 7X19 galvanized. All my current turnbuckles have a 10-32 thread... When I went to order my new turnbuckles it states that for 1/8 cable I should use the larger turnbuckles with 1/4-28 thread.... It appears that all may stock cables are 1/8 inch and using the smaller turnbuckles. Any advise would be a huge help!
