TomKrajci 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️<p>Glider flight controls - rudder pedals and cables. </p><p>The rudder pedals pivot at the bottom and pull on steel cable that runs along the fuselage sides, in plastic tube jackets, all the way back to the rudder. (This steel cable can handle about 1,000 pounds before failing. My legs will never generate that much force.)</p><p>Note the "S" tube on the sides of the pedals. When pedal position is adjusted for different height pilots, the S tubes mean that the rudders maintain the same orientation, and the steel cable is unitary...one length. Simple, yet effective.</p><p>(The seat/floor pan is not present in this photo.)</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/AvGeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AvGeek</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Aviation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Aviation</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/ElectricAircraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ElectricAircraft</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/ExperimentalAviation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ExperimentalAviation</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Homebuilt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Homebuilt</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Glider" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Glider</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/DIY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DIY</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Rudder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Rudder</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Cable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cable</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Steel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Steel</span></a></p>
