| Subject: | Building Large Rudder for Glasair TD 1 |
Hello all,
I have finally hooked up with a group of very good fiberglass mentors and we
are getting close to finishing the large rudder for my early model tail
dragger. In the original builders manuals I cannot find any info on the
internal counter weight as far as weight and arm length etc. Was there an
update to the manual that included this info and described in more detail
how the large rudder was to be constructed? We are at the stage where we
need to figure out counterbalance weights and could use a bit more info to
get this right. Is the method essentially the same as for the small rudder?
Thanks so much!
Bob Granley

Thanks John.
Think we are more concerned right now with the weight of the internal (fusel
age) counterweight that I can't seem to find that in the manuals. =46rom th
at we should be able to determine how much we have to put in rudder. Looking
for the diagrams as well.
Thanks
Bob
