    Re: Aerosim Solutions B737 simulator rebuild

    Hi guys, I've completed the rudder sets at last!
    Well apart from a coat of paint but the mechanicals are done. The rudder pedals stay parallel as they travel over the arc and the return springs of good resistance and excellent self centering. The toe brakes have good travel with spring resistance and full analog braking capability via geared potentiometer drives. The centre box lid is hinged for easy access and it is held shut in the closed position with some small but powerful magnets. I'm really pleased with the outcome and I'm looking forward to installing them in the sim once the new floor has been fitted.

    These are the parts that make up the brakes and rudder linkages

    As always - KISS principle applied!

    The brake plate has the gear teeth for the pot and the return spring, this plate is fixed to the pedal

    The brake pots rotate 280 degrees so they should give smooth braking

    The spring and link arm hangs down on the pedal coming backwards and the other gets stretched

    The lid opens for easy access

    This rose joint under the bell crank is for connecting to the second set of rudders

    70 hours later....

    Cheers Gwyn

    Re: Aerosim Solutions B737 simulator rebuild

    Congratiolations Gwyn, thats is a very well made rudder. To make such complicated mechanical structure in one time, I think you designed it with someting like SolidWorks (or another 3D CAD program). If thats the case would you share the file with us?
    regards
