Richard,
I flew a tecnam Super echo set up in the same way (fuel return to r/h main) and it behaved the same, it was so bad in fact that if you flew on both with the mains toped off the R main would ...

Are you flying yet John?

Ben,

How did you get the balance line from one wing to the other without putting a dip in the line through the cabin. I considered a balance line but it would be rendered useless if fuel was trapp ...

What ever became of Raymond Miller and this wing and what were Raymond's impressions of it?

I've experienced the exact same thing sharpie dies fast, but I've found that if you lightly scribble across some wood (workbench) I've found they come right back to life..... I think they "skin o ...

Same could be said about a guy that touts on about auto conversions, but I prefer not to throw stones but instead respect his effort and keep an open mind

Leonardo,

Elevator cables in, and there is no deflection of the elevator when stick is moved from full left to full right or visa versa.

Dave

We used http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/an490.php and standard rod ends. This setup is flawless.

Dave

Leonardo,

Myself and another mechanic cannot see any noticeable movement of the elevator bell crank going full aileron travel left, right (no aileron stops installed yet). Cannot be absolutely cer ...

I don't have the stops in for the aileron bell crank yet, so I have even more stick swing than is actually allowed. The amount it swings is a total of 6" aprox. measured at base of the controle ...

Without a fwf setup Ive given up on this engine. Fluwithgus seems a little too sketchy to entrust with such a large investment.
Thats to ba ...

Does anyone know what rotax has to say on this subject i would think that there should be something regarding a boost pump or lack of boost pump relative to the engine driven pump, inlet pressure, byp ...

[quote="Tommy Walker"]Earnest,

There are two options for this. One is to use a general lubricant, such as motor oil. The other is to replace the bearing material with an oil impregnated ...

I plan on using a collector tank, behind the seats in my 701. The 750 has less behind the seat and not in the cabin room then the 701 but surly there is room for 1 gallon or so someplace. The attached ...

What is the reason for moving the fuel sender to the side? It seems at the very least more leak proof on top.

And for those with the optional 7-WTA-1 wing tank cover two questions:
Can you rem ...

Use Sealube or Ez- turn. You can get it from Aircraft Spruce. Teflon tape or paste is suicide!!

Yep I agree it is also known as fuel lube ...

I dont understand i was under the impression that zenith is selling the older style tab for the 701.

Has anyone tried to build the elevator trim tab like the ch750 i would like to get the tab incorporated in the elevator. Looks cleaner and less chance of me giving it hanger rash.

Thanks

Dave
