We have a new canopy latch with some great features:

Long version for models in 1:2.0 or with large surface depth

- very strong spring that pushes the pin into the canopy (no need to push the pin over the steel cable)
- a counterpart for the pin out Messing (unfortunately still visible in steel in the pictures!) for gluing into the canopy (this means the seat of the pin does not wear out)
- strong steel cable with 1.3 mm (galvanized and very easy to solder)
- Miniature Bowden cable with a flat wire core (stainless steel) and a black PVC cover
- this is very flexible and also allows several tight radii without any problems
- no chafing of the cable in the radii, as is the case with plastic Bowden cables
- Long-lasting ease of movement of the train thanks to the stainless steel core in the Bowden cable
- the Bowden cable can be unscrewed from the brass body, in order to be able to shorten this and the steel cable accordingly
- There are three different wooden frames to be able to glue the brass body to the fuselage ceiling
- Due to the different sizes, the distance from the fuselage ceiling to the canopy frame can be chosen very well
- There are three adhesive dots with which you can glue the Bowden cable in the fuselage in a visually appealing way
- There is a brass ball with a heel, which is soldered onto the steel cable at the very end
- Length of Bowden cable = 700 mm
- length of steel cable = 800 mm (other lengths can also be manufactured if required)

The kit includes all the parts you need for assembly.
