Hello good Piet-ple,Had a great visit with Curt on Friday - and it's a great example of having anotherset of eyes to look at a project. We were working on a number of things and then he stopped and looked puzzled...!?!?!?!He noticed that I had my rudder mounted UPSIDE DOWN....!!! OK, so itwould have worked just fine from a flight/structure standpoint, but I would notlike the nicknames/abuse I would have taken if I had shown up to Brodhead withit that way...!!!!!Attached is a before and after photo........Great reason to have people come and see/review your project....!!! (not to mentionStan's BBQ)Thanks Curt.....!--------Jake Schultz - curator,Newport Way Air Museum (OK, it's just my home)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/rudd ... __________

Hey Jack Don't feel too bad about it. I was once asked to take a look at a guy's engineinstallation that wasn't making thrust. After careful examination, we determinedthat his ground adjustable prop blades were set at +7.5,and -7.5 insteadof both at +7.5 degrees....an extra set of eyes helpsSent from my iPhone> On May 19, 2014, at 10:14 AM, Jack wrote:> > > Wrong-Way Jake?> > Sent from my iPad> Jack Textor> >> On May 19, 2014, at 10:40 AM, "aerocarjake" wrote:>> >> >> Hello good Piet-ple,>> >> Had a great visit with Curt on Friday - and it's a great example of having anotherset of eyes to look at a project. >> >> We were working on a number of things and then he stopped and looked puzzled...!?!?!?!He noticed that I had my rudder mounted UPSIDE DOWN....!!!
