Garey, Seems you may be missing that the swing is 35 degrees relative to the outside of the fuselage, not just to the VS. I just mounted my rudder stops the other day and 35 degrees is easy with a plywood cutout of 35 degrees on 90 degrees. Does that sound right? Need a fuselage to set the stops to. Best of Luck, Bill of Georgia

Greetings:
Have my VS mounted to the work bench along with the Rudder attached. Trying to verify the 35 degree travel on the Rudder to the Left and Right of Neutral. Seen no Archieves on how to measure the angle other than laying the VS and Rudder on the work bench and using "Smart Level" to measure the deflection in the Up & Down positions. Must be "super simple" to measure it, but for some reason the method is not evident to me (now).


Appreciate your help, Garey Wittich Santa Monica, CA

Deflect rudder. Cut cardboard to nest into the angle. Measure angle with protractor.
