CG Ultimate alternative cabane struts?
Thanks for all the good idea's. If I had known this could be a weak spot on this plane I would have rather had TNT bend up a set for me, sounds like the best idea yet.
The cabane is broken at both ends, at the mounting bolt inside the fuse and at the top where it is bent flat to fasten to the wing.
The plane has about 3 hours flying time on it with an FX 91 without an isolated mount. Also the plane had one crash. It stalled and went nose in from about 5 feet up. This didnt seem to hurt the front cabanes but did bend one of the rear ones and was bent back into place. Maybe the front ones did get hurt in the crash.
Im still not sure if I'll replace just the one damaged front with some better aluminum or have some better ones made up and replace the whole bit, I'll hold out for more reply's and think about what I'm gonna do for the time being.
Thanks for your advise.
