Now that the tail cable-struts are finished I've turned my attention to the rudder and elevator cables. Things are getting exciting now that I can sit in the seat and make airplane noises and wiggle the rudders with my feet. As someone mentoned earlier, it's easy to mix up the elevator top/bottom cables causing the elevator to work backwords. This might work down-under (like the toilet swirls are reversed) but not in my shop. So I did get them straigth just before crimping.
Getting the cable guides installed was a big milestone. I really wanted them all on the inside of the frame, to keep the look clean, but then I also wanted the cable runs as straight as possible. Straight won-out and pictured is what I now have. Still to do, is to roll the airframe and weld the guides in on the other sides.
I was always hoping to complet the airframe and send it to be powder-coated before starting the wings. But alas, I can't do the final wing mount (rear) until at least some of a wing is complete. The plodding-on continues.
