Has anyone modified the rudder pedals/ brake master cylinder orientation on an RV4 to gain a bit more "wide foot" room . Have a "not build by me " RV4 that has conflict with the bolting hardware , both rudder cable and brake master cyl, and width of pilots foot. The previous owner added a welded on tab to the bottom tube and that allows for your toe to operate the pedals OK in flight but still doesn't allow for good foot placement for breaking. I think the bottom line issue is that the wells for rudder travel movement are just very limited on the sides from center structural parts and side wall bulkhead parts.
Even a hardware change to bolting arrangement might open up some width space. Any comments welcome, Thanks
