Wanting to install a BRS in a Kitfox IV. Got Pictures?
Need pictures and ideas on where and how to install a BRS in my new (new to me) Kitfox IV-1050. Pls provide me details and contact info if possible. I'd like to leverage everyone's learning.
Re: Wanting to install a BRS in a Kitfox IV. Got Pictures?
Here are some photos of the installation on my KF-IV1200 restoration project.
It's mounted behind the seat pointing down. It fires through the bottom of the fuselage. The lines are wrapped around the the right side and attached to the main spar carry-throughs.
Let me know if there are some specific views you want.

Thanks for these.... your location was just was I was thinking although it is pretty tight.
Can you give me some pics of your final install. Ideally need a close up of the bracketing so I can see how it mounts and where you pointed the rocket.

Here is the pull handle and the routing of the "wrap around" leads. This plane is a little strange in that the origional builder did not put the stringers down the side. If you do have these wood stringers installed, the "wrap around" would go behind the wood, hidden beneath the fabric rather that covered with a tape like this.
