Mod needed on Spoiler bracket
Posted: Sun Oct 31, 2021 4:51 pmFor those still building with short legs, here is a mod you need to do.
The last triangle on the spoiler bracket does nothing but put the point of it right into the side of the knee. Very annoying. I'll be cutting mine off. But I have been flying with my parachute so maybe without a chute, it would not be an issue. Don't know. I do have a custom single seat that maximizes the rear space down low for a backpack parachute so your crotch is not up into the stick.
I suppose it is there for the rear stop for the full spoiler position but the spoiler linkage is the real full stop and the handle will never hit that aft most triangle.
Of course if your knees are up knocking on the fuel tank then this would not be an issue for you.
