The difference between the AVRO 504K and the AVRO 504N are, amongst other things:
- A New” Oleo” undercarriage is fitted.
- An adjustable Tail Plane arranged for dual operation, enabling the machine to be trimmed for different speeds and varying loads.
- Altered Centre Section Plane and Wing Roots, allowing a much greater range of upward and forward vision.
- New shape Ailerons to lighten and harmonise the lateral control with the elevator and rudder controls.
- Direct gravity feed for petrol.
- Different shaped fuselage section.
- 6 inch shorter (from what I see).
- New engine.
It is worth noting that the AVRO 504K Mark II was very similar to the AVRO 504N, but with the original rotary engine.
