It is a 180.
Are these too loose?
Are there any published cable tension specs for the PA-18?
Ah, now lift up on it and move it around a bit - does it rub on the bottom skin?
I am talking about a lag or dead space when going from right to left or vice versa.
Some folks call that “centered”.
It’s a flying machine. If you want a precision driving machine buy a BMW.
Yep. Just happened to me today swinging around a tight air park taxiway with a stiff quartering tailwind. That tail came around 70 degrees PDQ. Good thing I was taxiing at a walking pace or I would have bought a new mailbox and some tail feathers.What you don't want to do is go stop to stop on a wagon and have the tail get some momentum built up, they will surprise you how fast they start around the second the TW breaks lose.
I think you will find the wagons need a lot more use of brakes than a Cub. The T/W weight on the late models is 200 lbs +, so they need a little brake to swing around. Keeping the tail up on the roll out by using brakes not elevator gives quicker control response on landing. In strong X/W you sometimes need to feather the brake if you have the seaplane tail on T/O.
