This is more a Barn door then a rudder and with 8711s it may be a functional one as well. nice pics

For comparison the 1/4 inch we use to mount our 150 is equal to 0.625 cm.

Elie....with that accessory pad, you can have the first engine-driven smoke pump

Nice tail wheel install !!! I like it.

Snap how about a pic of the prop hub. What is the shaft dimension for the center hole on the prop? Also what is the spacing for the bolt holes as measured from the center shaft out to the holes?

Thanks,

Richard

And if you ever get too hot sitting in the sun, just waggle your left stick around and you can have a pretty decent breeze goin

Joe, Mark Hale, the guy that does all the work at the Nall sells that setup, not sure how long it is going to last though

Wrong Way, see pics below, not sure if that's what you're looking for but the alignment shaft is 4 cm, the hub is 9 cm and the spacing for bolt holes from center shaft to center shaft is 32 to 33 mm

The new and improved super mega snap a saurus.

Few pics, for comparison purposes, the blue rudder you see belongs to a 3.3m composite ARF Yak.
The wing belongs to a Dietrich 42% Slick 540.
