    Installing release in ASW19

    I'm collecting idea's on how to install my release.

    Step one, I'm building a servo support and installing it on the side of the fuselage. There was already one there installed before.

    I have the wire from the original owner but my release is round and i have a triangle as a hole. Maybe i have the wrong release or i have to build some king of support.

    Any idea's as i've never installed a release at the bottom.

    I would be inclined to make my own for that setup...use a 1/8" piece of music wire inside some brass tube that runs across the hole......epoxy that in and then with the music wire pulled out cut out a section of the brass tube to be able to fit the tow loop in...about a 1/4" gap....hook the music wire to your servo and away you go!

    thanks. It makes sense and not too hard to build.
