[Wing] park brake

[Al Cornyn]

I put the valve right between and above the pilot rudder pedals.  I ran the cable through a piece of steel fuel line to get the correct angle to the activator lever.  My brake valve leaks down, so don't trust it too long.  It works plenty long enough to get out and fuel up or tie down.  Used the same push pull cable as on carb heat.

  Has anyone else installed the optional park brake system in their RV?  We are building an RV 7A, purchased the park brake valve from Van's, but rec'd no instructions.  Where does one install the valve?  How do you hook up a cable to activate it?

  Any ideas would be welcome.  We'd like to get the thing installed prior to covering the front top fuselage.

  Thanks, Dennis Voth, Calgary
