Hey guys,
I am building a quicksilver MX back up.
Im not sure how familiar you are with it, but here's a picture:

Basically, the wing is held both up and down by wires. the wires support all the weight during flight, and the upper wires support the wing when it's sitting, or in negative g flight (which i dont think i'll be doing... )
What i was wondering is if i could replace the upper post and wires with a single post on each side? that way I could relocate the BRS from the rear axle (where it would shoot right into the prop) up to above the wings on the king post...
OR, could i replace all the wires with two poles on each wing? for the same effect, but removing all wires...
Throw in your ideas, please!
Dan
