Title: Rudder pedal stubs on longeron
Post by: JohnB on October 22, 2013, 01:19:25 PM

Every time I build an XL fuselage I have a fit trying to get the 3" rudder pedal stubs both pointing in the same direction,  have used a tandem tube with some success but this time I left out the bottom diagonal and installed a tube crosswise where the stubs go and cut out the middle when welded , THEN installed the diagonal.    Stubs nice and straight and pointed exactly at each other.

Lo&Slo    John
