Sperry T 1 bombsight

Does anyone know where the flexible drive on the base of a Sperry T 1 bombsight ( on top left ) is leading to ?
It has a loose end and I don’t know where to connect it to. Cannot find any fixing hole on the bombsight itself.

Thank you for these interesting pictures. The T 1 bombsight however is placed in my Mosquito B 35 replica nose section. If you can post pictures of the Mosquito B 35 bombaimers section that would be great. I could not find any pictures on the net and in books.

Thanks to your last picture I found out that the flex drive has to go through the bigger hole underneath the left arm upwards to connect inside. Great !

Lower flex drive for drift works fine, but where to connect the end of the flex drive for the sighting angle ? Picture please.

The two flex drives connect the Computor Unit to the Sighting Head, transferring drift and sighting angle.
