Moth rudder foil trim tab adjustment

High there I am currently working on a foiling moth and need some assistance with the control system for the rudder trim tab control.
Where the control rod exits the top of the rudder foil how is this linked to the tiller extension and what is the degree of rotation of the tiller extension in relation to trim tab angle change. Also how much load does this system see

Moth rudder flap control

You might check with John Ilett at www.fastacraft.com to see if maybe he'll sell you the components. Also check the Moth forum on the Australian Moth site.
