Brief Description:  Rudder Cable Exit Guides

The tailwheel mounting bracket would interfere with the rudder cables as they exit the fuselage without extra guides being installed. I have copied the method used by the factory by producing saddles that capture a 120mm length of nylon brake line, extending the cable guide aft of the forward edge of the tailwheel bracket. The tubing is wrapped with silicone tape under the saddle that is riveted over the standard plastic guide that I decided to install inside the skin as the tubing provides all the required cable protection. I placed washers under the tails of the rear rivets to prevent the plastic cracking.
