Hi, my PA makes real tight left turns & HUGE right turns. Any ideas why? Maybe I need to adjust the cable? |

You will want to adjust the control lines on the steering drum. Put the Pro Angler on a stand so the rudder has clearance to move when down. Remove the square black cover to gain access. Put the handle at a 45 degree angle, the rudder should be straight at this position when finished with adjustments. Untie the control lines and loosen the two screws that are on the drum. If you are not turning right than you will want to pull the line that is on the left side of the drum (the lines are cris crossed over the top of the drum). Pull or loosen the lines on both sides so that once you re-tighten the screws, the rudder turns the same amount each way. Having someone to help you makes this a lot easier. Make sure you retie the control lines over the drum and put the cover back on. At the top of the forum the second topic, "Steering drum Upgrade" contains a video about upgrading the steering drum which might be of some help. |
