I've had my Thriller for about 6 months and live in Hawaii so high humidity and sea breeze are the norm. After replacing some brake lines, I measured some lines, A's ok D's 2-2.5 cm short, it's been a bit slow coming up when light. Should I open the trimmers to compensate or try stretching them?
Thanks Joe

Gave them a strecthing with 40# dumbbell and pully. No more than 1 cm difference between A's n D's checked on a couple different ribs. Much better than 2.5 cm. thanks
Try stretch them, shrinking shouldn't be a problem to fix.
I've done it on my wing after it's been lying in wet grass many times. Attach the risers in something sturdy then take the lines one by one and pull. Wrapping the upper line around your bare hand and pull until it hurts was a guideline I heard if you can't measure the pulling weight. I have a small baggage scale with a hook that I hook the loops of the lines on to.
