Hi everybody,
I've been happily building my empennage for the last 6 weeks or so and need to order the rest of the quickbuild kit pretty soon. That means I need to make a few decisions and two of those have to do with the rudder pedals.
Up front, I've got the option of the cockpit adjustable or ground adjustable pedals. I don't expect the plane to be flown by anyone but me (at least, not until I eventually sell it), so I expect I'll set the rudder pedal location once and leave it alone. With that in mind, it seems like the cockpit adjustable pedals don't offer any benefits. Is that the general consensus around here? Or did I overlook something?
For the rear seat pedals, it sounds like it's possible to retrofit the kit after the plane is flying, but it's considerably easier to install it during construction. In other words, if I think I might want rear seat pedals in the future, I might as well order them now. Again, is that the general consensus of the folks here?
Thanks everyone,
-Ross
