  Chris Hoskins invented this power steering device for Canard nose
  gear here in NZ.
  It will work on any nose gear airplane including you Tango guys. It
  does an excellent
  job of damping in the bargain. In fact a tail dragger would benefit
  as well. I am
  thinking about building one for my RV4. The tail wheel would be
  locked straight
  ahead for landing and then could be steered back to the hanger.
  IMHO this is a major development.

  Good work Chris. I love it.

  Chris is also building his own Ford C6 based six pinion planetary
  gear box for
  his p-ported RX8 engine.


  He is using the Ellison copy Rotec carb from OZ.

  Great job Chris, i like it.

  I will be getting back to the hangar early next year and will look
  at it.
  How do you feed in the signals, by rocker switch or potentiometer
  connected to rudder cables, or something much simpler?
