I’m working on the control system on a KR-2 taildragger project I purchased. The plans (January 1990) state “the tail wheel cable should be attached as far forward on the rudder cable as possible before it enters the fuselage.” Where would this be? Seem I have to attach it BEFORE the last fairle

Larry, How do you put a hard stop on the rudder pedals, so that you cannot over stress the system while braking? I can see stopping the movement of the rudder on right to left, but when braking, they are not moving. See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics Daniel R. Heath - Co

I don't think the size KR Flyers I've seen would be able to overstress 1/8 inch cables. That's about1600 pounds. I think we need another area to "worry" to pieces. Stops at both the input and output are advisable. In a tailslide, the rudder can be flipped by aerodynamic forces. Rudder pedals c
