Very cool day in the shop. I was able to install the rudder horn in a position that gives it exactly 27.2 degrees of throw which is EXACTLY the same as the other rudder before it reaches the stop. The plans suggest NO more than 26 degrees MAX throw so I'm pretty much dead on with a little buffer after the cables break in and some time is put on the airplane. I was also able to fabricate all new hinges, drill the proper holes and mount the rudder. This rudder actually moves smoother than the other due to better hinge lines that I was able to achieve. The horn was bonded in with 30 minute epoxy, however it will get EZ Poxy prior to the final 2 ply layup inside the aileron. Finally I was able to drill out the holes routed for the internal rudder cable conduit. One side proved to be a challenge but the job was done well. After finishing up the winglet interior I will permanently bond the cable conduit just as I did on the other wing with 1 ply glass in 5 spots.
