    Rotax have a complicated two pump set up with non return valves and an extra line with a restrictor. My question is. Do I just go to racetech and buy all the A an N fittings, elbows etc. The whole set up has flared fittings. Airframe mounted so little or no vibration. Or have off the shelf car fittings failed by experience and I need aircraft quality and price. Thanks Lyndon

    I have an engine. The kit is sitting in Port Melbourne waiting for a berth. Hopefully in a few weeks it will be underway. The case and gearbox hardness test and oil galleries test were performed and it's a good one Lyndon

    What's a good comfortable grip and what are people putting on it. I have manual flaps so we can remove this. Thanks Lyndon

    I ride adventure motorcycle's. Tubed and tubeless. Vast experience with punctures. A plug in a tubeless tyre works perfectly. A tube in a damaged tyre or rim on a tubeless tyre works perfectly. ( Patch the inside wall where damaged) Tubed , get the wheel off and patch it properly or a new tube. There are no short cuts. I personally wouldn't want to land on a tyre that wasn't fixed properly. Once you have done it a few times it does become easier. Lyndon

    At two thousand hrs I would suggest the lifters and cam are toast. Especially if it's been run out of a school with on avgas. The last engine I built was full of sludge with the cam and lifters being roast. The rest of engine was in good nick. Lyndon

    Box shipped Tuesday and has arrived in Richmond CA. Some prices, if anyone is thinking of importing an aircraft. The crate was $2100 USD Get the said crate to Richmond CA $2640 USD. You can do the maths at .64 cents in the dollar. Thanks Lyndon

    The Kitfox is about to ship. Wednesday from Idaho to San Francisco. So by the end of next week it will be waiting for a LCL in San Francisco onto Adelaide. Hopefully late May early June it will arrive in Port Adelaide. Ordered September 2024 with a two year wait time for these aircraft. I'm thinking they like the sound of the long wait, but in reality its pretty much straight away for a build slot. Thanks Lyndon PS. Is this the right place to update my build. ???

    I think there is a two or three new ones in Australia. Should be a fun build and nice to fly for a few years Lyndon

    Its about to ship. So in a few months I will start a Kitfox build and a you tube. Stay tuned Lyndon

    Signed off. I take it that means completed and flying. I see 883 days left on the rebate. I can register for a rego number while building I believe. Lyndon

    Long shot I'm sure. But here goes. So if I'm building a VH Experimental this year am I entitled to any free government money. Sounds to good to be true ? Thanks Lyndon

    So it makes a stencil

    I'm a long way from doing the panel. I'm comfortable leaving the panel upgrade out now. I will have it done here and save some money. Thanks for the info. Lyndon

    I'm in Adelaide Does it work with paint?? Instead of powder coating?? If someone in Adelaide does it that would be preferable. But basically that's exactly what I'm after Thanks lyndon
  16. Lyndon
    That's what I'm after Lyndon

    I really want it printed or engraved. I don't know the process. I can cut the holes out and paint it. Then I just need it printed? Lyndon
  18. Lyndon
    I'm finalising my panel in my kit. Can I get it engraved here in Australia if I get a blank panel. The cost as add on is outrageous. Thanks Lyndon

    Ok. Stein in the US at the current exchange rate. 57 cents per foot. Local here in Adelaide at EDMO is 54 cents per foot. That's 🍎 for 🍎 That's at their door pricing. No brainer, I will get all I need at EDMO. Lyndon
  20. Lyndon
    I've just emailed EDMO They are in Adelaide so that's convenient Lyndon

    I believe 18 and 22 With some coaxial as well. Some different colours, just need to decide on lengths. From what I see it's very cheap in the US, will it sent to KitFox and they can stick in the crate. Lyndon
  22. Lyndon
    I think so. I'm will get it via the USA with my kit. Whats a good shopping list of what to get. Lyndon
  23. Lyndon
    Will do
  24. Lyndon
    GEA25 I think your correct. I've misunderstood. I will have to order one of the above as well. Lyndon
  25. Lyndon
    True. I never thought of that. I can use it remotely. Plenty of room on the panel. I will probably change that now. Thanks Lyndon
