Default RE: Carden Cuda Build

I thought I would show how I control the tailwheel. If someone has a better way please show me or tell me.
Thanks

I cut a notch in the bottom of the rudder and then add a small piece of 1/8" ply. I then add 2 small screw eyes near each edge of the rudder and then attach the springs (with a piece of pull-pull cable and crimps) from the tail wheel arm to these screw eyes. It's simple but it does add some weight.
attached are pictures of the ply piece in my Cuda rudder and the finished tail wheel on my 35% Extra
