It is going in the 4P carbon fiber Lancair . The other photo is of my 2 girls in the TW before i left Dallas Sun am.

From: Jerry Hey --> Tailwind-List message posted by: Jerry Hey What is the O.D. and wall thickness of the "pull tube" that connects the flap handle to the lower flap horn? It is probably there but I can't find it in the plans. Thanks, Jerry ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:49:32 AM PST US Subject: Re: Tailwind-List: Mazda's From: Jerry Hey Dennis, Nice pics. the 20 B was not sold in the US but it can be constructed by adding another rotor and housing to the 13B. 300 hp (100 HP per rotor is a lot for a normally aspirated engine but is very conservative for the turbo which will easily generate 120 per rotor. With a new drive coming on line shortly, it will soon be possible to spin the rotary engine faster. A LOT MORE POWER will be available.

I couldn't find it on the original plans but I used 3/8 X .035 with standard fork rod ends. The 3/8 should work fine due to the short length of the tube and the real stress on the tube is in the pull when lowering the flaps.
