<\/a>This is the DT setup loaded and ready to go. You can see an anchor point for a dental band at the rear of the fuselage opening. At the extreme rear, there is a pin in the tail assembly and another on the tip of the fuselage. A second dental band keeps the tail locked down until the fuse burns the band.<\/p><\/div>\n
