RE: Goldberg float kit - any tips, suggestions, warnings?
just follow the instructions......
make sure the blind nuts that are mounted inside have a backing plate, so that it is not possible to push them out of the hole (guess how I found this out.....). 2 oz glass on the bottoms; 3/4 or 1 oz on the sides and top...
The 2-56 linkage that connects the 2 water rudders together is a pain...it gets caught in the wake of the floats, and pulls the rudders out of alignment....after many years of trying everything except a scale pull pull system, I gave up and took one of them off. (then I tried the pull pull cable and pulley system and it works fabulous!)
