BackcountryAeropup Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I thought I would share my Aeropup project I have just purchased. The plan is to progress and post as often as possible. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackcountryAeropup Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Apart from a bit of cleaning since the aeropup has settled in her new home I have swap the tyres from the 15's to the good old turf glide 18.5's. ultimately I would like to put a set of Aeroclassic 22'' tyres on but the money will be best spent else where. I will get her in the air first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackcountryAeropup Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Another change I made straight up was when I got the pup it hade a flat back tyre so I sourced a solid electric wheel chair tyre to replace it and eliminate that problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will get her in the air first. At last! a new aircraft owner with a modicum of good sense. Keep thinking like that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackcountryAeropup Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 Due to a non air worthy style modification to my control stick I decided to remake a new one with a modification of my own. I thought it would be better fabricating a zenith style stick for more comfortable control and a lot better for duel control when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackcountryAeropup Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 I spent the last couple of months taking off parts getting them sand blasted and powder coated again. I took out the old floor for replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackcountryAeropup Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 I got the parts back from powder coaters and made a new floor board. This week I splashed a bit of paint on it and this time I stuck some marine carpet down. When I got it the floor was unpainted and weathered a bit. I spent a good part of today putting it back together and this is how it turned out. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
