I just got notice that my stick grips are on their way. I also may have found someone who can machine a new bushing for the pilot stick, so hopefully before too long I'll have the sticks all finished up. Until then, back to random tasks. Since the seat back brace is now in, I can finally position the canopy latch cable. I already had the nuts that secure the cable fairly close to where they needed to be, so it didn't take much to find the happy spot that allowed the right amount of movement on both ends of the cable. I tightened the nuts down, then screwed on the cover plate for the left side. It cleans up pretty nice!
The standoff for the left side is just a plate that I screwed to the seat brace.
Everything works really well.
I decided to go ahead and throw the panel back on since I need to figure out where to center the glass panels. Once the sticks are in and I can put the seats in, I should be able to finalize the panel layout.
