Deflect rudder. Cut cardboard  to nest into the angle. Measure angle with
protractor.

Subject: RV8-List: Measure RUDDER Deflection (Swing) Angle


Greetings:


Have my VS mounted to the work bench along with the Rudder attached.  Trying
to verify the 35 degree travel on the Rudder to the Left and Right of
Neutral.  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,
Set your max rudder deflection after the VS is installed on the  aircraft.
It's easy following Van's instructions.
