On the subject of rudder stops; I'd say yes; put them in - in whatever form
you like. Place them just before the end of travel on the cylinder rods.
Saves stressing the cylinders, gives a firm stop for setting your cables
tight, and will not change cable tension if you later decide on a bit of
adjustment on the cylinder push rods.

Guys:

I don't provide comments (lack of experience and I have a single door,
fixed gear, dual yoke control SUV) but I do and have read all e-mails
back and forth.  I seem to be just behind in construction than some
and the need to ask questions is always unnecessary because the
subject has already been discussed.  However, I have come up with two
(2) questions:  1) do you need stops for the break pedals so they are
not putting pressure on the master brake cylinder heads when the
springs are pulling and your foot is not on the pedals? and 2)  is
there a way to make the two (2) larger NACA scoops on top and in the
back for the engine cooling from the existing fuselage or do you
really need to buy the pre-fabricated ones from Velocity?

Thanks!

Rick Wallace
