KR> sanding blocks
Hi Everyone, On the subject of sanding blocks it's?just like everything else, the longer the better. You can pick them up at Harbor Fright or your local auto body supply store. For the compound curves use a flexible one and the flat surfaces use the straight one. Good luck.? ? http://s449.photobucket.com/user/rkpsk1/library/ Robert Pesak

Simply delete the krnet address and it will go only to the sender. I used to have to hunt for it in the long and cluttered header. I like this system better. Now if everyone will go into there e-mail program and put something in the "real name" box, we'll know who sent the e-mail as some fail to even put their name in the e-mail as a signature.

The blame for that falls squarely on AOL and Yahoo.

KR> Rudder pedals
On my S project I also beefed up the rudder horn. The original design had hand operated brakes and there was never much stress on the rudder horn unless you just pushed on both rudder pedals for no reason. Since most of us are adding brakes now we put a lot more stress on the rudder horn. Not sure if anyone has ever broken one or not.

I would definitely recommend going up a few sizes on wall thickness (.058) on the rudder tubes as I bent them twice trying to stop on a short runway.

Another suggestion that I used is the stuff they sell to keep you from slipping - comes rough and has a sticky back.

KR> Rudder pedals
Phil. I would definitely recommend going up a few sizes on wall thickness (.058) on the rudder tubes as I bent them twice trying to stop on a short runway. The right hand one is really the culprit not so much the left one due to the torque you can apply when the adrenaline starts flowing and the end of the runway is near. I actually ended up re-enforcing the lower corners with an internal tube to strengthen the weld and torque points to stop it from bending. The rudder pedals were one of the surprising things that I did not expect to have any problems with yet it was an ongoing issue until the third set were made as above. Contact me directly if you need more details.

KR> Sanding Blocks
I also build R/C planes and the hobby shops sell sandpaper on the roll for about 5 -7$ It has a sticky back and you can stick it to almost anything, angle iron/aluminum, edge of 2 X 4, etc. worked great for me.

KR> 'net testing
In an effort to make the list more useful and less bothersome...could all you "net list testers" think of some meaningful contribution to make while you're testing? Anything regarding KR flying or building. Like maybe "I've found that putting a 90 watt floodlight 18" away from a layup cures it in just a couple of hours, and allows me to get a lot more done on a small part by allowing three different work sessions in the same day", or something like that? Or maybe "There's been a history of the plans-built rudder pedal system breaking prematurely, so I made mine from the next larger diameter but thinner wall tubing and they are way stiffer but weight the same". Or just sit on your hands for a while until you really have a reason to send a post and then see if your test worked? Thanks...
