Hi,

The layout of the guywires (horizontally radial) in the downloaded skp model appear to differ from those of the image on your website (lateral).

See images of radial cables in the skp model below.
I don't see how they differ from the images on our website. Except if you mean the image of the sample design which differs only because the wires are attached to the vertical beams (which in turn connect to the spars) instead of connecting directly to the spars. This is an acceptable minor alteration of the design and, while practical in some cases, doesn't change any properties of the platform.
Regarding your further engineering inquiry, unfortunately I cannot pass on all questions to our engineering team. I ask you to carry on the discussion in our forums where quite a few users have engineering knowledge.

I want to modify the model (move the cables) to accomodate my structure but need a few hints to hobble up something that is feasible.
I would like to know what percentage of the total weight of the truss system is supported by the wires.
In general, we don't allow modifications of the base platform unless they are minor cosmetic alterations. How much is minor? Can't tell you exactly unless you tell me exactly what you want to change, but anything that requires calculations like you want to do is definitely too much.
