[rebel-builders] SR/Moose rudder springs

Springs are in tension all the time (once you get the rudder cables
run/connected that is). Add inspection/access plate in bottom skin to
access these springs/attach points (pic posted to archive area 124 S/M
Modifications) or you will really hate yourself later.

Subject: [rebel-builders] SR/Moose rudder springs

Guys,

Quick question about the springs (part no 311-606) that go from the rudder
pedal control horn back to the front web of the gear box: should they be in
tension at all times, or only when the horn goes forward (i.e. when the
pedals comes back)?

If anyone has an pics of how they have hooked the springs up I would sure
appreciate emailing them or uploading to the site. The rudder control system
is poorly covered in the manual.

Thanks, -Jason

Ted,


The pic you posted to the archive on this subject, shows a piano hinge along the
lower edge of the firewall flange. What is this hinge used for? Is it used to attach a
section of the cowl or for a control flap for air exhaust below the firewall flange area?
Thanks,


Jack, SR193
