Title: Nosewheel steering assembly. Help Needed!
Post by: ayushverma on July 13, 2016, 05:19:26 PM
Hi everyone.
I'm planning to build Pilot QB20 H by Pilot OK Models in Corro.
Expecting an AUW~1200-1300 gms.
I have this nose wheel assembly with me:

Need help figuring out how to mount this :)

Thanks Sanjay Sir :)
I build primarily in Corro and built the Junior 100 last from your builds :P
Infact Maahin taught me to build and fly :)

@Sanjay Sir
Will a 9 gm analog metal gear servo be able to steer using cycle spokes?
I'm thinking to use separate servos and mix them because I don't have pushrods that long.

Ha! Wonderful!

But Maahin is currently in Bangalore, and you are in Indore

We were both in the same college (MIT Manipal)
I'm still studying.
I'm 2 years younger to him

Yes, you could mix 2 X 9 gm MG Servos. Not even mix, use a Y cable. But check actually, you may have to reverse one servo

Or, to keep it simple, make it a taildragger

See http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/pilot-qb-20-l-ii-adapted-in-corro-electric/

I converted the Junior 100 to a taildragger hence trying hands on a Tricycle Gear now :)
