RUDDER CONTROL SYSTEM
Figure 31: Rudder control system.
Refer to Figure 31. The control system layout is two steel cables attached to the rudder control horn at
the bottom of the rudder. The cables are supported and aligned by cable guides. The cables terminate
on two rudder pedal control horns. Control stops limit movement of the pedal to cable attachment
horns. These horns are in turn attached to two adjustable pushrods which are attached to a control
horn on the nose wheel strut (detail B)
The rudder pedals can be adjusted backwards and forwards on tubular slides (to set positions) and
locked in position with bolts and lock-nuts.
In the rear fuselage the rudder cables are attached to a spring load device (detail A) which provides a
centring force on the rudder.
