Tony,
Where are you trying to change the direction of the rudder cables
to that degree?? Anything beyond 10 degrees should use a pulley and the
larger the better. The arc radius is important for the flexing of the
cable. I think I would use the minimum size of the cable pulley we have
in our cockpit module. Note that is used for a small directional change
around 10 degree's. I've used nylon ferrules for small changes and just
keeping the cables from flopping around and dragging on the bottom of the
fuselage.
