Quoting:
I also had to tweak my lower rudder bushing to center the rudder in line with the upper bushings. What I found was at full deflection, the leading edge of the rudder stuck out further, past the fairing, more so than the other side. It was a miniscual amount of tweeking, but it made a huge difference and lined up everything nicely. I would check and adjust that first, and then shape the rudder stop bracket.
Jerry, can you provide a little more detail on the tweaking you did to the rudder bushings? (Maybe we have different attachments; mine are threaded rods with ball ends.) While I have the same issue with the rudder's leading edge being a little right of center, I don't see how I could adjust the alignment of the rudder attachment hardware to change that...?
