b) Loosely fit all cables in the positions shown, and with tangs overlapped as
shown above. Note tangs may have multiple holes. Only attach through the
very end ones!
c) Forward side bracing C cables.
These are the only cables with turnbuckles. Tensioning the turnbuckles
sets the tension in D cables also, and permits adjustment of Fin angle.
d) The tension in the rear cables E and F is provided by attachment at rear. Fit
first on very end of bolt with nut only just engaged.
The rear of the fuselage can be lifted which will aid attachment of E
cables at front position. Fuselage rear can be pushed down to aid
attachment of F cables at front position. Twisting the cable in the
direction of the cable layup can be used to shorten the cables if
necessary. The aim is to eliminate all slack at this stage as much as
possible and it still be possible to attach them. Final tensioning of these
E and F cables is achieved by tightening the rear attachment nuts.
e) Upper bracing cables A. Should first be fixed at the rear.
The wires should be twisted as necessary to eliminate slack to make
the cable a tight fit on the start of the forwards fixing bolt. Final
tensioning is achieved as the forwards fixing nuts are tightened.
f) Lower bracing cables B should be fixed at the rear first.
They should be twisted to provide tension and fixed at the front
Inserting the bolts at an angle initially and levering straight to tension
the cable as they are fully inserted. Take care not to lose the spacer in
the tube
– use another bolt or thin screwdriver inserted at the top to
hold spacer in position and bolt is withdrawn and reinserted.
g) Apply light tension to the cables but do not tighten at this time.
