Ryan,
Are you going to use a pull pull with cable or mount the rudder servos in the rear fuse??

He Steve! Have not seen you in a while. I hope things are well with you. I see Walt answered your question.

AWESOME scheme on your Dalton!

Gary, I'm planning on a push-pull. Servos mounted in the rear of the fuse.

This is a great build thread, lots of pics, and very detailed. I would love to see a how you set the incidences when you get there. I am planning on trying to build for the first time, and that is one part that seems complicated (or just makes things really bad if you don't get it right).

Hey Pride,
It's really not hard. Why don't you come on up and we'll do the incidence on your wings so you can have some hands on . . .

I just thought I would show another way to mount a tailwheel for those that don't like to see the mounting hardware.

Walt started messing around with a rear pipe mount. He ended up making several till he came up with this one. It has super support and weigh's 1.4oz complete with the silicone tubing. Made it from 1/4 light ply and the tubing is typical medium silicone glo fuel line. Will need to lower one stringer 1/4 inch to allow some clearance for the pipes in the one bay. I ended up cutting 1-1/8th off the stingers to allow installation and removal.

Are you going to enclose the pipe tunnel?

Looking sweet.
