Hi all
Dont post much on this side of the site,just wont to know if anyone has any type of reference on the wire that attached to the canopy when opened.I was dusting off my 3 1/32 109s and i blew into the cockpit of my 109 G and the canopy fell off and i can't find the wire i had attached to it,i have not built any planes in years thats why am asking so i can make a new one for it.

Kind Regards

Karl

Hi Karl

Here is an overall guide to show you where to attach the wires. I do not have any pictures of the real thing where you can see the wires right here. I believe there were different radio combinations as seen below.

Hope this helps

I think he was refering to the wire inside the canopy that kept it from opening too much, not the antenna wire.

Here's two good photos. They're from a late G6, but I think the erla canopy was the same (correct me if I'm wrong).
