Ok, I admit that saying this chapter is complete is a little inaccurate. I still have to install the static port, pitot tube and complete the nose access hatch. However I am going to wait on closing up the nose until more work in that area is complete. Next up will be the main spar.
I finally have finished fabricating all of the rudder/brake pedal parts. Tomorrow I should be receiving some hardware from Aircraft Spruce to complete the installation. What follows are some photos of the left pedal test assembled:
Here is a shot of both pedals. Only the left (pictured on the right) has the brake parts installed at this stage.
Here is a shot of the pedal in the position it will normally be, with the rudder un-delployed.
Here the pedal is in the positioned where the rudder will be fully deployed, but just before brake pressure is applied.
Another shot in the un-deployed state:
