Brief Description:  BRS Part 7: activation handle install

I ordered the activation handle assembly for the chute, and also asked BRS for examples of possible install options. They were kind enough to send me a pic of the install handle set-up in the Cirrus, which I adapted here. Adel clamps secure the cable fore and aft along the ceiling. The cable then loops down behind the canister and then back up to the rocket.

I had to fabricate a stand-off and 'articulation' to allow the handle to be pulled freely from it's resting position. The articulation prevents the cable from being kinked during an 'aggressive' deployment, essentially allowing the handle (and cable) to travel through a greater arc to avoid cable binding.

Overall, I am quite happy to have routed this along the ceiling instead of the floor. I want to be somewhat carefree in storing stuff on the floor, and keeping the cable up high gives one that flexibility.
