Here are some bridle shots of a Punisher Sport 54 for 29mm motors:
Top view looking down. I decided to foam the fincan.
The pink string is so I can grab the barrel swivel with the quicklink attached. It stays below the lip. If anything needs to be replaced, I can detach from the bridle and replace the the harness.
Internal shots with a cheap ebay endoscope for an Android device. I paid for the MScopes Pro app. I don't like to "sock in" my kevlar where the CR exits are located because I feel epoxy impregnated kevlar becomes brittle. As long as it's not allowed to go from "side to side" it should be O.K. Now I put masking tape on the other side to
plug the gap but the foam I elected to use busted through. Why foam? 'Cause I've never done it before and simply wanted to try it! :smile: There is a fillet on the other side of the CR though. One can see the wellnut for the launch button in the upper right of the last picture. I used the endoscope to examine the single shockcord that occurred with a burn through with the Formula 54 below.
The repaired Formula 54 is on the left of the Punisher.
The fisheye of the sport camera distorts the shot.
One can see the coupler used for the internal repair/stenting off to the left and the cord looks a bit ratty but I've yanked on it pretty hard and I believe there is competency left in it.
These are three shots of the removed Dino cord protector. That grotey stuff peeled off is borate soaked (flame retardant) cardboard I had
duct taped to the cord protector on the end closest to the motor. The protector is reusable
but I'll duct tape two new pieces of the flame retardant cardboard to it.
These cheap endoscopes are not 720P but give one enough resolution for gross observation of internal stuff. I did add an external light source though in the form of a hand held light to
give more illumination of the internals. Kurt
