Trim assist, rudder install, and seat install

Post by MikeFairbanks »

Pretty quick job to install the trim assist...

The rudder ball joint bushings had to be tapped to be able to screw them all the way in. Once I got the tap through all 3 of them I was able to install the rudder, adjust to the required measurements, and then file the rudder stops to get 25 degrees in each direction...

I also got the seat pan trimmed so that it fit in place. I haven't cut the slots for the seat belts yet, or cleaned up the edges... but at least I was finally able to sit in my airplane and make airplane noises! ;)
