I fliped them around and the binding is gone.It has full free travel.
Yippee kaiaaay M F.
I just read the last post from Dave R and need to check for the "P".
The plastic peice was a little peice of plexiglass. I think that someone put it in there to take up some slop, but every thing was backward.
Thanks to everyone for the input.
It's really great to get such a huge response. I could have messed around with this for months. and still not gotten it right. I had decided to take it out this weekend with the rudders bound up just to see how it worked.
Now on to the next challenge.
In the murrays cat. it has a note about the bungees for rudder kick up. it says to use 5/16 bungee doubled and the manual says it is attached to the tiller bracket pin.
I did this and pulled the bungee as tight as I could and the rudder still falls half way down.
It's mega stretched and I dont think it will last very long.
any suggestions?
