 Posted: Mon Nov 19, 2007 6:16 pm Post subject: Quick Question About 601XL Z-angles |
 |
|
I'm placing an order for some parts from Zenith and realized, there seems to be a discrepancy (or I'm looking in the wrong place).
Page 6B1 lists 6 pieces of Z-angle required. For the life of me, I can't see where more than 4 pieces are required (around the bottom hatch). Where else is this stuff used?
Someone straighten this confused soul out, please.

Doug,
I think you are talking about the Standard L angles. If so, I found
that I needed some for things not in my 601 HD plans like the separate
structure required to mount my 406 ELT, a center console, to line the access
panels, to double the aileron horn, and miscellaneous added structures.
While the price of a four foot piece seems quite expensive, I'm glad I had
extra around.

I got burned on this was last week. Look at the rear bottom fuse. The angle in front of the door is z angle, rear spar support and then another z angle.
The z angles are part number 6bx-1, I don't have my plans here but I put L angle and had to drill them out and replace with z's. The plans are flakey here so be careful. They look like L's but are Z's.
The second row down in 6b3-1 on the builders updates show the door. Look to the right and you can just make out that that piece is a Z and NOT an L.

Hi Doug,
On my XL, the Z angles are only used around the fuselage bottom
door. I think the reason they give you extra pieces is because there
was (is?) a mistake on one of the drawings that shows the most
forward Z oriented backwards. I used up some of my stock to replace
that part after installing it the way the wrong drawing showed and
then used the rest of the stock finishing the door edging. I wrote
to ZAC to ask where it was also used to see if I needed to order
more, and got the response that it was only used there.
