I'm ready to rivet the rest of my fuse and baggage floor. Will it be
too much trouble to run the control cables after I do that?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Not a problem, you'll have access to run the cables thru the hatch on
the bottom of the fuselage.

Hi Steve,
I don't think you need to worry about running control cables after you
finish assembly of your Zodiac. The only tricky part is getting the
aileron cables into the wings. This can be done easily by tying some
string to the aileron belcrank before finishing the wing and running it
to the inside edge of the wing. Then you can just pull the string with
the cable attached later. If that isn't possible you can push the cable
or a string from the open end of the wing by taping it to the end of a
long wood stick.

Innstalling the cables
Aileron cables can be installed anytime, and the tail cables should be installed before installing top of fuse.
The tensioning of the cables should be done asap.

No problem to install the cables after the fuselage is finished as long as you fit through the fuse bottom opening

Steve,
Sure, you can always run cables later. But why not do it the easy way, when access is easy. I ran all my cables as soon as possible and avoided the access hassles later.

You might want to run some string where the cables will be run. You can then use the string to pull in the cables later.
