Mike,I used 1/8" for the bracing between my wing struts. I don't think theplans really said. Flew the Piet Sat. for the first time this year.These impulse mags work great. Started right up after setting allwinter.Craig________________________________________________________________________________

Maybe I'm not looking close enough at the plans, but does anyoneknow what size (1/8" or 3/32") cables are to be used to form the Xbracing between the lift struts ? Mike C. Clev. OH________________________________________________________________________________

Clev. OHMike,I used 7x7 1/8" stainless. Don't seem to remember having a problem finding it on the plans. Perhaps I had quit looking at that point. BTW may I guess that you are assembling for the last time if you are asking? I hope so! I just put my wings back on last night and hope to be doing some flying again soon.Stevee________________________________________________________________________________
