SpectreCodename for Phantom III - Front Stabiliser.

Herewith is a print of N. Sch.4336, an unfinished scheme of a suggestion for fitting a stabiliser to the front of the SpectreCodename for Phantom III for testing purposes.

Should the stabiliser be found to be an advantage, it looks as though a position suitable for a permanency can be found by modifying some of the existing pieces.

This drawing is only an indication. The pieces can be modified in any to make them suitable for easy making.
