Any CH801 builders out there interested in participating in writing a
"CH801 Builder's manual by Builder's" which can be put online
somewhere? I can provide the website.

I'm done with my wings, tail feathers, and flaperons, and could put
in some time to write a couple sections.

Probably just need some volunteer's to write, and to QA each other's
work.

Feedback? Thoughts?

You write it and I'll install it on www.ch801.com All the room you can desire.

I'm not about to bash anything in the manuals, yes there may be errors. But if you built a 601Hd about 8 years ago all you got were 5 pages of text to build the whole plane, hand written plans full of Tildes that stated about that measurement.
The photo manuals are a huge difference from what builders used to get. Updates to the manuals are slow in coming due to the fact that Zenith does not build a new demonstrator every year. The 801 they fly is the original demonstrator as is the 601 and the 701.
So if you spot an error in the manual then take photo's and write down exactly what you have seen and send it in!
Maybe you will see changes in the photo manuals faster, these guys care and genuinely want to help and have a great experience for everyone. Truth be known when they didn't have photo manuals and only FAX support, builders didn't have as many problems that they couldn't figure out. Why? Because in writing the fax out to Chris they mulled over the plans longer and looked ahead and the light bulb went off, which is why Chris ALWAYS stated to read the PLANS.
Now a good 75 % of the questions answered and taking up the time of the support crew are simply because the builder didn't look at the plans and understand what they are actually trying to accomplish. IF you wait for ZAC to build a new demonstrator just so they can take a few photo's and correct some errors in procedure, then yes it will take a very long time. IF you notice an error or even if you think you came up with an easier way of doing things then send it in!!! don't just open a bitch session on the Matronics list, update the manuals for ZAC so that the next builder may benefit from a lesson learned.
Now the 601XL builders manuals have changed completely from the original release, why? Because they are making a lot of them as LSA, the 801's and 701's have not see so many if any changes in the builders manuals, WHY ? because they are still flying the original aircraft.

My God look at the HOBBS meter on the 701 and 801. These will be the highest timed Demonstrators at any show !! I agree there is always room for improvement, so help out with solutions. I would hate to see a company pass along added costs of building another plane just to update pictures.
