Canadian Lanc Sim

Well...been awhile. Here's my first of a few vids showing how the canadianlancsim is coming along. I've been very busy with work, but have had time lately to pound on it. This one shows the general layout of the interior of the yoke and pedistal. The final result came out of no less then a bakers dozen experiments or more with how to get the right tension and for the chain drive to work correctly without the multitude of bearings and whatnot.

My next vid will be on how I solved the tension problem with for and aft movement and how I could simulate it with my particular setup.

Any questions, please ask...no secrets here.

Great stuff!!! The only problem with chain drives is teh one you found......but spring tension works wonders!

Had to take off up north to work again, but here's next vid...
