Regarding the discussions about the BRS, I have a 701 with the skyshops FWF kit and a Rotax 912ul.  I installed the BRS per the BRS drawing on the rear wall of the baggage compartment.  My GC came out more aft than forward (I think around 400), but within limits, and the airplane flys fine.  I also have "X" bracing in the fuselage. 

 

One consideration I had about the BRS is what would happen in a "normal" crash, would the g forces cause the BRS to hit me in the head?  I put heavy cargo netting in the baggage compartment to contain the BRS.  Les's installation on the back wall of the baggage compartment would be an even better solution to this problem, however you must be more careful about an aft CG problem putting the BRS further back.
