All,

I saw Bryans thread, but mine is somewhat more specific IV (i hope): does anyone have pics of the routing left-hand rudder -> through the fabric -> into the Grove Gear, please?
The Grove has brake line attachments at the backside, so the brakelines should go 180 degrees in a very, very sharp angle.
And with the right brake it is even an edge more....

Would be helped and inspired) with some pics.

Hans,

On my first Model IV, I ran the lines on the floorboard at the left edge, then across at the bungee bulkhead and through the bottom of the fuselage where the bungees used to pass through the bottom fabric. Then to 90 degree fittings to the gear legs. I made some attachments to hold them flat to the floor so the llines wouldn't interfere with the push pull tubes to the flaperons. Sorry no pictures.
