Hi Geoff Have you done the up grades cheersPhil

Hi Geoff Is there any changes in the wing mounts from the new to old plans just wondering if i up grade the rear wing mount on fus is there much in the wings i have to up grade cheers Phil

HI Geoff That is one strong looking rear wing mount hang a cessna wing off that,Im with you will get mine in the air then make little changes i like your edea of putting the aluminum in the roof with a small window, your pics are handy for me thanks Cheers Phil

Hi Geoff Tom wanted a few weeks to think about it so will give him a ring in the new year.Had a chat to the fella from stol speed great to talk to he has done his research, he said you only gain about 8 feet shorter take off with slats and lose a lot in speed and fuel burn, what i think i would like to change is my stabilizer to the same as the sav, he said you need to keep the power on all the way to the flare with the 701 stabilizer but will make those changes later . Any chance of photo of the z bracing Cheers Phil

Hi Geoff had a look on youtube on rebuilding 582,s dont look to hard, you rebuilt many? I like the simplicity of the 2 stroke cheers Phil

Just got them open

Hi Geoff thinking of doing the mod is it a big job, cant open your pics cheers Phil

Hi Geoff my rear wing mount sits on the inside what does it say on the plans, as long as the measurement is the same as the wing does it mater i have some 125 6061t6 if you want some Cheers Phil

Hi Geoff like the 618 from Tom sounds like it has plenty of grunt and low fuel burn on cruise, see what price he comes up with . can you remember on ebay a while back the 2stroke engine mount for sav 701 did you keep the contact buy any chance, or just keep an eye out for silver or blue head 582 and gear box . buy the time you finish doing all your strengthing on your 701 you will be able to swing a 180hp engine on the front better safe than sorry .When you get a chance can you send some picks of the rear wing mount was it hard to change over ?Cheers Phil
