** To fix the grip interference, a lot of builders bend the control stick with e.g. a hydraulic HF tube bender (don't forget to fill the tube with sand). However, then, the elevator all up position might interfere with the pilot / passenger with the seats in the front 3 notches, especially, if you opted to let the elevator travel reach its maximum angle of 30 degrees up (only 25 up is required).

** Some have opted to lengthen the pushrod setup to move the stick aft. This may require longer rod end bearings as the stock thread engagement is only about 1/2 inch. This may introduce dangerous binding between the aileron pushrod bolts and the F-1033 Control Column Mounts which needs shaving. | ** Some have opted to lengthen the pushrod setup to move the stick aft.
