Ah!  I see the comments are going on top vice the bottom on this post.  At least for my view.

 

Thanks for the tips and photos.

Joe,

 

This has flown for 200+ hours and 4 years without any problems.  Yes, the right side is a mirror image.  I have a 90 degree compression fitting adel clamped to the bottom skin to make the turn.  I did manage to locate a few pictures from the build that show the front end. 

 

Good luck,

 

Dave

Thanks David.  I assume right brake line comes out on right.

 

Sure looks clean under there.  Have you flown?

 

I saw no place to comment on your comment so I am commenting on my comment.  Hope you get it.

Joe,

 

I will chime in here with my configuration.  I ran my brake lines out the bottom of the fuselage floor right by the pedals and back along the lower front longerons 6B10-3.  I had to real reason for doing it this way other than I did not like stuffing anymore things through the middle hole in the center section.  It certainly functions the same when all is said and done.  The main benefit I realized with my routing method was when it came to the wing upgrades.  I did not have to remove the brake lines to get the center section out.  I don't have a good picture of the line routing other than this one.
