I am planning my RV-14A build.
I think the release handle takes up too much very valuable panel space in the RV-14. I understand some people just cut it off behind the panel making it unavailable in flight.
I spoke to one very experienced builder who told me that some builders had a cable operated canopy release that allowed you to put the release under the panel, out of the way but still available in an emergency.
If you have done this, or know the details I would like to understand what you did.
Thanks,
