LOL, the weather has been pretty crappy here lately too, we have had a lot of high winds and rain lately. I am ready for it to get warm. It is going to get blisteringly hot this thursday. It will be 80 degrees. Thankfully we have air conditioning, I do not know if I will be spending a lot of time outside in that heat.

It's been a big, windy convection oven in Vegas

After every 10 to 20 flights, I find my pull-pull rudder cable has stretched and I need to tighten the turnbuckles half a turn or so. Do you guys find this needs to be done for the life of the airframe? Or will they stretch to a certain point and then stretch no more? Or should I maybe use a cable other than what came with the 3DHS kit?

Thanks,
Marc

That's normal. They should only stretch so far though so you should only have to tighten them up once or twice.
