Default Cat XL Wing Mount

Hi Guys,

Does anyone have a wire wing mount lying around or know what material they are made from as the ones i have tried out of stainless steel wire are too soft.

Cheers

Rich

used 2mm piano wire for various wing mounts over the years, 2mm is very strong but still workable, go any thicker and you may struggle to get really tidy bends in it
