Ordinance Pylons.

Now I’m moving on to the ordinance pylons. These are Aerotech pylons and are molded from a resin of some-sort. I opened up the top of them to see if I could get any sort of mechanics inside and was pleasantly surprised.

I have to devise the mechanism, but I believe I can have that sorted out in a few hours. I believe I can install the release servo in the wing and with the use of a couple of 90 degree bellcranks, I can get what I need.

In studying the pylons last night, I’ll have to add a bit to the bottom of each. This next photos shows where the 2 release points will be, but the bluish shapes show the rough outline of how much needs to be added to replicate the real thing.
