Running coax for vor antenna on assembled VS.

[danlh]

I would like to install my vor antenna on the vertical stab but was concerned about the coax running through the stabilizer being unsecured. Any thoughts on this. The skins are already installed. I was wondering what others have done besides an archer installation in the wingtip.

I added little standoffs forward of the spar with a hole and grommet…before I closed the skin. Riveted through to the ribs on the other side.
You could add nut plates and adel clamps aft of the spar with a bit of work to do the same thing…

I used a piece of nylon conduit. Attached at the top and bottom. It works fine but would have been better to install it prior to riveting the skin.

Thank guys. I’m thinking maybe pcv pipe attached at both ends. That might provide a little more rigidity than the corrugated conduit.
