Rudder Post
Posted: Thu Feb 27, 2020 3:43 pm
Has anyone welded sections together for the Rudder Post? Bending it seems like a difficult task.
Also, regarding the bushing in the rudder bar; plans call for 3/8" 18ga (.049) tube in there with a 5/16" bolt. A 5/16" bolt won't fit in such a tube. So, AN4 bolt with plans specified bushing tube, or AN5 and larger bushing tube?
Thank you!
