11.1 ELEVATOR CONTROL SYSTEM
11.1.1 DESCRIPTION
The elevator control system is comprised of a control column and one enclosed push-pull cable fitted
with rod ends at both ends.
Due to space constraints not all different variations are shown herein. When ordering spare parts
provide as must detail as possible
– part description, aircraft model, serial number etc to Jabiru to
ensure accurate part identification.
WARNING
All spherical rod end bearings must be fitted with a large washer on the outside of the through-
bolt to prevent the bearing case and cable releasing in the event of a bearing failure.
