New Rudder Lock for -14
(possible advertiser here shortly - talked on the phone with Chris yesterday. Thought I’d mention the product in advance. dr).
The DroMightâ„¢ Rudder Lock is the best rudder locking system for the Vans RV-14 and RV-14A aircrafts.
This revolutionary product prevents wind from causing unexpected movements of the rudder control
surface and can be secured from within your aircraft while parked on the ground. This tension bearing
dual rudder lock system allows for the rudder to have flexibility in heavy winds while also keeping it safe
and secured when parked on the ground. The DroMightâ„¢ Rudder Lock is quick to install, easy to remove,
light weight and effective. A version for the RV-10 is coming soon.

3D Printed Drill Bit Organizer
To speed access to common RV drill bits, I created a drill bit organizer in F3D and then 3D printed it. I've found it to be very useful, so I thought I'd post the design. The slots to the right are unlabeled for misc. drill bits, but if there is a common size that I missed, let me know and I'll...
