Does anyone have good designs for control locks for the Europa? Now that I am
banished
outdoors on the windy coast, I'm having to give such things consideration.
I'd prefer some sort of design that fitted on to the wings/tail directly.
I figure that this is more secure than simply locking the control column/pedals
in one position since even with the column/pedals fixed, the wind can still
blow the control surfaces around and rattle the control runs and loosen the
joints and pins.
I can see how to secure the ailerons (with a sort of V-shaped hat that would go
over aileron/flap/part of wing), but the tailplanes and rudder look to be more
difficult to hold in position externally.
Any thoughts?
