Subject: | Van's Parking Brake and Andair Throttle Quadrant |
Hello,
Does anyone have any experience in the installation of a Van's parking
brake:
http://www.vansaircraft.com/cgi-bin/store.cgi?ident=1386516792-84-561&action=search
or an Andair throttle quadrant:
http://andair.co.uk/system/index.html
If so, are they easy to install in an RV-6? Mine has a fixed pitch
Sensenich propeller and a 160 HP Lycoming O-320 engine.
As for a parking brake, I have none in my RV-6. I would find one useful
when undertaking power checks prior to take-off. Which in your opinion
would be best and easiest to install?
Thanks.

Hi George,
If you do a search on VAF you will find a number of interesting comments on
Park brake -
http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?p=782033
Personally I am going to install the Grove type - it is a one part unit -
The Matco is made in 2 parts and if you clamp it hard in place - the
internal piston may jam
Have you looked at this throttle quadrant

Again .. search on VAF and you will see several who has installed it .. I
have no experience with the Andair type.
