I had my rudder cables through the nylaflo tubing also. I ran them through both the forward and aft spar web and they bent down completely under my fiberglass seat. After 45 hours they were still in good shape.

Sent: Friday, May 14, 2004 2:53 PM To: KRnet Subject: RE: KR> Got my plans today My rudder cables are running through 3/16 inch nyla-flo tubing from the pedals through the cockpit area so the cables don't rub on upholstery or people. The nyla-flo tubing passes through the associated fairleads in the cockpit. Also have 12-inch lengths of nyla-flo tubing floxed through the 3/32 plywood where the cables exit the fuselage ahead of the rudder. Seems to be working very nicely. I had the same treatment for the elevator cables in the cockpit until I took those cables out and went with push-pull rods for elevator and ailerons. Sid Wood, KR-2 N6242 Mechanicsville, MD sidney.w...@titan.com Has anyone run the rudder cables through a plastic conduit. What would the ramifications be of doing so? Please be gentle in you flaming.
