Mark, could you post some pics of how you hooked up the kevlar ? That will be great. Thx.........
Here ya go:
Some notes:
To avoid interfering with the rud/elev push rods, I mounted the wire to the side of the fuse. To do this I simple cut a small square hole where the trailing edge of the whole is butted up against a former. I then epoxied a square hardwood stick (about 3/8" x 1 1/4 " I guess) up against the former and then covered with Monokote. this became the "hardpoint" for the fly wires. Once I threaded the kevlar through the holes in the stabs, I then rough cut it to size. I used some 2/56 solder rods (the things you solder on the end of rods so you now have threads on both ends) and simply dripped some CA in there after tucking the thread in the end. I used smali pieces of aluminum that I had laying around from some Nelson arms to and screwed these into the hardpoint in the fuse and bent them at the appropriate angle to accespt the 2/56 plastick clevis. When everthing is done and somewhat tight, just wick some CA into the holes in the stabs where the kevlar is threaded though.
Hope this helps (and hope I can shink the photo)
