Subject: Re: Anti-Splat Gust Lock
From: "bill.peyton" <billpeyton9@gmail.com>
I built this gust lock out of PVC for less than $20. I have been using this since
2012 and over 1000 hours and never had a failure in all kinds of wind etc.
It holds the rudder, elevator and ailerons with just a slight amount of flex
in the pvc. The hinge is designed so that it locks in over-center thus putting
pressure on the rudder pedals. The rear end is held in place by a number
8 screw with a dome nut the fits into the end of the gust lock. It can't move
out of place.
Sorry in advance for the size of these photos
