Default Rudder Cable Replacement?

Hey guys-

I seem to remember seeing there was a rudder cable replacement for the RV's..

It reduced the dual cables to 1 rod type device?

I am trying to find this on the net and cannot seem to find it..

Anyone have any idea what I am talking about?

Thanks

Jeff

I've never heard of anything like that.

Could you be thinking of the tailwheel steering links that replace the standard Van's steering chains? If so, there are several available.

Look at yesterday's thread about preferred tire pressures. I think the preferences were from about 18 to 50 PSI. It's about the same thing.
