I installed the ELT mount per instructions. The rudder cable goes underneath the mount. When the cable is taut, it just barely contacts the ELT mount. Did others encounter this? How did you deal with it?
I was wondering about installing a sheath around the cable, similar to the sheath where there cable penetrates the fuselage skin back near the tail. I would have to split the sheath material to install it on the cable. I don't know how easy it would be to split that material. Does anyone know exactly what material is used for sheath at the rear of the aircraft?
Alternatively I could install some of the grommet edging material that is used in lightening holes to protect wiring. That sounds easy. I don't know how durable that material is.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
