    Default Need some measurements for KF 5

    It looks like I am going to have to fabricate the inboard pedal/tubes, Part #51023.101.

    Can someone please give me the measurements? I need overall length of the torque tube, and then the center of the rudder pedal upright tube, from one side and then the enter of the pulley bracket from one side.

    Also I am going to extend my elevator to the current model elevator. I need measurements for the length of the elevator at the ribs.

    Thanks in advance.

    Jerry, I can get to the hangar tomorrow to take the rudder assembly measurements you need. Can't help you with the elevator , I have the stock Series 5 elevator. Bruce N199CL

    Thank you for the replies and the info.

    So I am good on the rudder measurements and just need the elevator length when someone gets a chance.

    It's been a while, but I believe the original elevator has a 12" chord and the current design is 15".
