Hi Evan: good head work there using the piano wire! What diameter piano wire do you use, and do you glue them into your wingtip?
I think I’ll pursue your great idea of the piano wire skids and also try to find some suitable material to stick onto the impact points where the tip tank contacts the runway when the plane tips, usually on landings.
I just replaced my tip tanks with new ones that I’d like to protect. I can use the old ones as a testbed to find the best solution for my TBird.
Thanks for the tips!
Cheers
