offset control horns

Dec 28, 2005 2 Replies

I am about to embark on my first pull-pull system.



The problem I have is that the leading edge of the rudder is rounded and



3/8" thick - so I have to go 3/8" before I can fasten the control horns on.

I have seen photos of planes with offset control horns. They look something like a "C". Where can I buy them ?



Thanks


Ted,

Get the horns that have a screw right through the rudder with a plate on either side. They have a long threaded horn that can be moved up or down the screw. Some of them (Dubro 866) are quiet long and extend far enough to line up with the hinge.

Thanks
