Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: "Jeff Hill"
Hi Guys,I'm to the point of running control cables, and I'm looking for information.As shown on the plans, the top elevator cables lay on the leading edge ofthe stabilizer in the down-elevator position, and the rudder cables have tosnake through the fuselage structure, touching both upright and diagonal ontheir way from the inside to the outside of the fuselage. Looking at thephoto archives, people appear to have dealt with this in a number of ways,from moving the idler crank to armoring the stabilizer, to just letting ithappen. Those of you who have been there, how did you handle the situation?Thanks,Gene HubbardSan DiegoPlane on three wheels--motor mount done this weekend!________________________________________________________________________________
