Gentlemen,
I have a classic and when I originally made the rudder, it was as per
the original design. On the release of the tail wheel mod, I purchased
it and fitted the actuator plate in the bottom of the rudder. After
this, I then became aware of Graham Singleton's rudder mod which I then
decided to adopt. (see why it is taking me so long to build !!!) I then
had to revert to the original drive system for the rudder so I used a
piece of foam which I then re glassed to build back up that part of the
rudder previously removed for the fitting of the actuator plate.
Problem is that I am not sure if I have left enough clearance between
the bottom of the rudder and the tail wheel spring rod. IOW, I don't
know how much the tail wheel spring rod will flex.
Would someone be so kind as to provide me with the measurement from the
bottom of their rudder to the tail wheel spring rod at its closest point
please. ie, the minimum clearance between the two.
TIA.
