I am completing a 235 which I purchased about a year ago. The rudder cables
seem to have too much friction. A lot of force is needed to actuate the
rudder. I did notice some carpet glue on the cables left from the first
builder. I  cleaned it off and also tried lubricating the cables with
dri-film lubricant, but not much inprovement.
Does anyone dnow how much friction is acceptable in the cable system? How
about a better method of lubricating the cables and with what type of
lubricant?
I hate the thought of changing the cables and/or guides, but this may be the
only solution. Any suggestions?
