Pavel, it looks like you tried to put toe brakes on a rudder bar design, then changed your mind and made pedals.

Did you try the rudder bar system and find it was difficult to get on the brakes with the rudder hard over?

Are you going to add plates to each pedal to put your feet on, or does your heel rest on pivot bar and you raise your feet when you want to brake to get your toes on the brakes? Right now this looks a little tricky.

Again, don't let me waste your time.

Best regards, John Ferguson

Thanks Jeff You was faster than me, I just trying to get know how to get same size pictures as you do. I'm filling very bad to badging you old the time post my work.

Any body can find which extra tubing i added on airframe structure???? Also measurement is very good, will used gear box and supercharger for more power. The fuel injection will be replaced with different one. I can make this engine fully acrobatic as well. This one will be a positive G's only. the whole work is only 5 cm longer the original Mercedes installation. This engine will take same size prop and more HP at same propeller RPM 1600!!!!

Any comets welcome.

Pavel
