|
|
Dear Thread,
A quick question? I am in the process of running my rudder cables. I am at the part of the instructions in which we fabricated the 20mm x 30mm Tufnil blocks that are to be located on the plywood triangle seat support ribs. When we place ours on the rib the cable ends up rubbing on the inside walls of the console. If we make new and deeper blocks I'm concerned with clearance of the landing gear (monowheel). Does anybody have pictures or run into the same problem. I may have just place the triangle rib supports a tad bit outboard than I should have.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Cheers,
Jeff Paris Kit # A012 Classic Monowheel

Jeff:
Make some guides out of Nylaflo tubing to run the cables through, for the
sides of the wheel well cavity. It is available through Aircraft Spruce.

Hi! Jeffrey
Yes, the suggestions others have made about running your cables through
tubing is good but don't despair if you later find you need another run
slightly diverting. As an afterthought without removing the cable to put
another length of tubing in place then use some spiral wrap electrical
conduit by winding it into pace. A dab of redux here and there fixes it.
Regards
Bob Harrison. G-PTAG

Jeff,
Check my build web site (URL in signature block). Go to album Year
#3, Q1 2004. Down toward the bottom is a pic taken down the tunnel,
looking aft, of the rudder cables, pulleys and the safety blocks. You
can see the rudder cables coming out of the nylon, Nyloflow tubing.
If this isn't what you want, let me know and I'll try to find a pic
with the information you need.
Good building and great flying,
Bob Borger
