Old Dog Flying Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Thanks for the comments guys. It was a very tricky build for a guy with one good eye and arthritis in the hands. But one that I had to try. The landing and flying wires are steel wire as are the cabane strut bracing wires. The drag wires between the inter-plane struts are fishing line and the control cables are made from invisible sewing thread...these last items required painting so that I could see the end to fit into pre-drilled holes.
