I second that motion. Let's get Nancy on here directly for an analysis.

Hi. I got some new Aerodyne Triathlons. While attaching toggles, there is no loop at the end of the control lines. How that has to be done? Any guiding document? Is it to be done like this PD video ?

Yes. That PD video shows you the best - most professional - way to tie on steering toggles.

Further, I like to wiggle the knots until they are hidden inside the grommet. This prevents them from snagging on the steering guide ring.

It is a cool technique to know, and very useful for making field repairs where I don't have access to a sewing machine. When I am at my loft though, I seldom use it because sewing is rather fast, and I don't have to explain to people who don't know how it's done why the bartack is missing...
