I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Front and rear

Ready to connect the rudder cables under the front cockpit (before gluing it it place) and to install the rudder pedals in front. That will complete the working controls.

Very nice, yummy!

Yes, indeed.

Thank you, you are very kind not to point out that I screwed up yet again. I extended the rods to the throttle quadrant in the rear cockpit back towards the tail where they control nothing at all (except how I spend my free time fixing stuff).

Amazing. All 3 axis controls are working?

Yes they are, nominally, due to the short throw of the stick to the ailerons and the limited cable movement to the rudder. But it's pretty cool to move the various control surfaces by hand and watch as the stick and rudder pedals in the rear cockpit move in response.
