I don't have any photos of the cable attach inside the fuselage but the two photos below show the exterior. Click the photo to enlarge for a better view, especially the second one. I tied the two cables together inside the fuselage for better geometry and have them each exiting through their own cable guide. That keeps the tailwheel cable from putting a side load on the rudder cable. I pull my tailwheel cables tight just to the point before pulling slack in the rudder cable from the attach point to the rudder. Some builders like a bit of slack in the tailwheel cable but my setup gives me very responsive handling when I taxi and takeoff and landing with the tailwheel on the ground. I think the springs help with side loads on the tailwheel in keeping some of the strain off the rudder cables. Just my opinion. My rudder peddles are lightly spring loaded to the firewall to keep the peddles centered and the rudder cables taught. So, is there a softer tire I can get for this assembly? That little wheel sounds like a siren on a grooved runway like Mt.Vernon. :-) Larry Flesner http://www.krgathering.org/images/Gathering%202011/N211LF/RRL_2789.jpg http://www.krgathering.org/images/Gathering%202012/N211LF/RRL_5393.jpg
