After reading about how people with flying airplanes were having to trim
their rudders to center the ball, I thought there might be a better way.  I
think that this is a better way than shimming.  I built a screw adjustable
rudder stop that doesn't take much longer to build than shimming.  The
advantages are infinate adjustment and easy fix if you didn't get it right
the first time. I've attached pictures because that's easier than typing.
The aluminum "U" channel is 1/2" and the screw is a 10-32x3/4" stainless.
