|
|
Hey all you scratch builders have any of you calculated the weight increase when using the .125
3/4" X 3/4" angle opposed to the kit supplied .093 thickness? I imagine the amount is small but it
does reduce your useful load. Does anyone know what the per foot weight of .093 is? If not could
one of the kit builders measure and weigh a piece, then post it for archiving?
Thanks,

If you are refering to the 701 it's about a 4 # penalty. John

Cut a piece of 0.032 x 1.5 inch x 12 inches long. Weight it and that is the delta/ft. (with a 1 inch long piece it would be the delta per inch)

John,
Kind of figured someone had determined the weight penalty. Thanks, John.

Thanks Jay;
...and I am not smart enough to figure out how to fix it!

I got .1532 lb (rounded off) per foot for 0.09375. At that rate if you used
about 85 feet of .125 you would increase the total weight of the aircraft by
4 pounds over the kit supplied materials.

Fellow builders
Don't forget that you have to bend the upper front longerons 6B11-1 to a
curvature around the cockpit. The .093 angle supplied by CZAW (and I assume
Zenith in the States) has a square intersection of legs i.e. the was no
internal radius in the corner. The thicker angle, particularly if radiused,
will need more force to bend.
Hope this is a help not a hindrance.
