After the crash the plane is repaired and the fuel nipple repaired. Just about to mount it and noticed that the pickup wire is broken at the tip of it and cant reach to solder or repair  :banghead:  Any one faced this before? Is there any way to open and fix it? Is a spare available anywhere for this wire? Please help  :help:

Still would love to hear if there is a way to fix this one. Hate to wait for the wire :(

No helping hands so far.. decided to give it a try myself. Will try to solder and see how it goes :(

fixed it :) and it worked. Used dremel to dig the wires out to solder and applied epoxy to keep them from breaking off.
