Default RE: Capiche 50

Did more work on tank etc, now all fuel lines are exiting the firewall, its all a tight fit though with the IH mount, infact it looks like I may just have to trim away some of the mount, I was wondering though do I really need the cross bars?

Anyway, I got the hole for the throttle hole marked out and it will come out nicely inline with the arm, just need now to get soemthing for a snake (clear fuel tubing maybe) and it will have to wind its way around this and that quite a bit so some sort of solid push rod is out of the question, looks like I will try to find that missing throttle cable, if I can't I'll see what IH can do or skip that as well and pop around the LHS.

Fingers crossed for wings and wheels! They are forcasting wind and rain. Kinda like the weather we had yesterday.

Looked around for throttle run, couldnt find any snake or stuff, will order it from IH when I get money along with 3mm and closed loop controls. Also, the adjustable control horns seems fine and indeed would work fine with the alierons and elevator but I cant see how I could use them for closed loop on the rudder, I may just end up buying 6 raked horns, I like the look of those better.

So until I get some throttle run I can't build, ah well, I sort out the Mirage and get it ready for sale.

Have fun chaps see you at W&W!
