ventus c main wheel mudguard attachment
Hello,
i plan to install mudguard on main wheel. I have mudguard itself but it is not clear how/what it should be exactly attached to. I found wheel including mudguard drawings for cirrus however i doubt there is the same attachment principle for ventus c. I would be grateful if someone could share wheel/suspension/mudguard drawings or pics. BR, Martynas

Scott Thanks for the pictures Scott, - to my surprise ventus c (b) has different suspension. "H" shaped forks are not metal but glass fiber, also no shock absorber. BR, Martynas

BR, Martynas I think the fender would minimize dirt, gravel and other debris from being thrown up into the wheel well and underside of the fuselage, "mudguard"? I wonder if that nomenclature is just a translation expediency Scott

The reason i am installing fender is to minimise amount of debris.
Thought mudguard is appropriate word, sorry, i am not native english speaker.
