701 builders,

Quick question, What is the length along the front of part 7F9-1 to the intersection of 7F9-7 (front upright)?



Can some of you scratch builders that have already been past this, or kit builders that have a side to measure help me out.



Here is my problem. On page 7F9, the plans show 7F9-7 intersects/meets 7F9-8 at 280mm from the front of the cabin side (center of the page drawing)

If I place 7F9-7 at that point, the top edge doesn't line up with the edge of the cabin side, (between the two R47 radius curves)

If I use 7F9-4 length of 132mm, then 7F9-7 intersects/meets 7F9-8 at 288mm, or if I use the length of both 7F9-4 and 7F9-5, then 7F9-7 intersects/meets 7F9-8 around 868mm.



Hope this is making sense.



I guess, another way of measuring might be, if somebody has a kit-built cabin side, how far out the front of the cabin side, and up from the bottom, to the end of a 730mm-7F9-7?



Thanks,

Keith

Just went and measured mine (plans built) the F9-7 intersects at 284-5 and is flush with the side between 47 radius curves. The top of 7F9-7 dies onto the .040 cabin  side doubler 7F14-6SP and is not critical to assembly (wiggle room) except maybe when the cabin frame 7F18-1SP butts down to it, I think I had to trim the bottom of the frame tubes a little when I fit it. Do you have your cabin cage built?

Roy & Stan,



Those measurements are about where I am ending up at. and... No sir Roy, I do not have my cabin cage built. I am thinking about ordering 4130-welded parts from Zenith. I just wasn't sure how much room I had at the firewall end to wiggle. Stan's measurements where also what I was coming up with, but things just didn't seem to be working out.



Thanks again,

Keith
