Subject: | Measure RUDDER Deflection (Swing) Angle |
Greetings:
Have my VS mounted to the work bench along with the Rudder attached. -Try
ing to verify the 35 degree travel on the Rudder to the Left and Right of N
eutral. -Seen no Archieves on how to measure the angle other than laying
the VS and Rudder on the work bench and using "Smart Level" to measure the
deflection in the Up & Down positions. -Must be "super simple" to measure
it, but for some reason the method is not evident to me (now).
Appreciate your help, - -Garey Wittich - Santa Monica, CA

Garey, Seems you may be missing that the swing is 35 degrees relative to
the outside of the fuselage, not just to the VS. I just mounted my rudder
stops the other day and 35 degrees is easy with a plywood cutout of 35
degrees on 90 degrees. Does that sound right? Need a fuselage to set the stops
to. Best of Luck, Bill of Georgia
