A bit more Goat work on a muggy Sunday instead of fixing a hand-launch glider recovered from the trees on Saturday. Word to the wise: your battery will always die on a 1000 point round. Boo. But everyone was quite encouraging having recently seen pics of Goat!
There is a pair of brackets for each of the four strut attach points, and each of these pairs gets a quick-pin and captures an AN42B eye-bolt to transfer load to the wing tubes. Not sure if this was really the intent of the eye-bolt... the load test should prove this system out.
Maybe this week I'll have the chance to jig up the wing, trim the struts to length, and mount those new brackets to make it a whole lot less wobbly.
