Just took the locking Raven off and put on a API.
Got it all hooked up with the compression springs from API.
With one link looser the tailwheel does not steer until you have almost full rudder in.
I like the chains tighter and took one link out and what I have is what is in the pic.
The tailwheel steering is perfect but now the tailwheel will not break over because it does not travel enough.
I think it has to do with the chain attach point under the rudder is narrower than the steering arm on the tailwheel?
What is a easy fix?
My mechanic thinks if we redrill the holes in the steering arm closer like the rudder it will be better? I’m not sure?
We also thought about putting a little weaker compression spring or a tension spring so it will stretch a bit and let it break over? There is no room under the rudder and between the round spring to put a bar and make that point longer.
