There is a thread over on the Zenith Owner forum with more info and links to several different designs of methods to keep the rudder from contacting the ground. Including several pics of how I built this one on my plane.

It looks good Greg. A friend of mine made a drag bar. It attached at the first L Angle support forward and came back to the stock Zenith tie down were he installed rubber grommets through the tie down hole. The bar attached in two places and was curved enough to keep the rudder from hitting the ground. I'll see if I can dig up a picture.

Only for those moments when there is a bit too much rotation or flare angle! :-)
