  1. Regulator and starter relay. Any experience with what to buy and more importantly what not to buy . I'm in need of these two items. Lyndon
  2. Mike. [email protected] Thanks Lyndon
  3. Thanks for the input. But I can't open that file Lyndon
  4. For example. I have the wrong connectors for my head temp sensors. Kit is for a Rotax 912. What is the go. Modify what connecters I have have or replace ?? Lyndon
  5. I'm wiring up the engine. Seems a bit of a guessing game with my manual. Anyone have a link to some thing with more detail. Lyndon
  6. I would like to praise Reg. If anyone thinking of building a plane take into consideration the after sales back up. I can only say that his knowledge and promtness and range of parts etc on the shelf is exemplary. It's a great thing having that kind of back up in Australia Lyndon
  7. I take it this is what I'm after for spacers/washer for my hiem joints Lyndon If so I'm one short. Also I see where they attach to the flaps the book says you can swap the special washers for standard an960-5
  8. I knew as soon as you mentioned those little washers / spacers. I had seen them and wondered what they are for. Went back to the manual and yep it says fit the an - 5 washers. Which I did and which don't work. Even looked in parts manual and it doesn't list those nice little washers. Guess its something they added along the way. Glad I mentioned it and even more glad I got an answer. Its a pretty important part of the plane. Lyndon
  9. Its what I call em. Been a standing joke for as long as I can remember. But on serious note I know what is not right. Yep it's something I have done wrong. Thanks Lyndon
  10. Well that will be another day. Moving that compaired to working under the plane in the hole will be a breeze. I have noticed that with full flap my alerons are not as smooth as compared with zero flap. I've had a look and fiddled with it all. Seems like the hymen joints are at there max and complaining somewhat. Lyndon
  11. I'm after some fuel inlets for my carbs. Any thoughts. Really don't want new as prices are just over the top . A straight brass fitting would be fine but I believe its not a gas thread it's metric. Lyndon
  12. Thanks for that. Jumping ahead what limits the elevator travel. I have fitted all the controls now. Quite an engineering marvel. All works perfectly and it fits Lyndon
  13. Gday. Does anyone have a used set lying around. I bought my engine used and I don't have them. They are way over priced new. Happy to pay a reasonable price. Thanks Lyndon Ps I couldn't find a sell and buy in the forums.
  14. Do I fit bolts and lock nuts here. ?? Or is pretty much good for travel as is. I can't find anything in the manual. Lyndon
  15. I was thinking that. Pretty sure there won't be a next time but. Lyndon
  16. Well I riveted the right side. Bolted the left. With the nuts loose I placed the flapperon in position. Then did the nuts up. I couldn't rivet it as I only have the pneumatic one. If I did have an issue I would have a hell of time drilling them out. This way it can be removed easily. Well as easy as it will ever be.I now need a day off for back to recover Lyndon
  17. Ok will give it a go. The rivit gun actually fit ??. I will limber up and give it a go. Thanks Lyndon Rick the rod arrived. Thanks again
  18. I have a question. I'm working in the hole under the plane and have just done all my fuel lines. I must admit this is a lot of fun ?? Oh to be young and fit. My manual states to rivet the brackets on. This is easy without the flapperon unit and impossible with it in place. Before I go and rivet the two brackets ?? They will I take it flex enough for the flapleron unit to be squeezed in between the two brackets. Thanks Lyndon
  19. Amazing. To begin with I thought something was wrong
  20. Just aligned my pedals . After building it this far I just noticed when sighting up my front wheel the engine is of set about 20 mm. It occurs in the engine mount. Someone smarter than me will tell me why ??? Lyndon
  21. Undercarriage works well
  22. I'm not a painter but what I have learnt is make sure you have a decent size nozzle on your gun for the big parts when you want a nice finish. One dry and one wet will do the top coat. Also filter every bit of paint before going in the gun. Lyndon
  23. Excellent.
  24. Wow interesting engine. Are you building that your self or buying one done ??
  25. Every bit of my plane is primed in two pack. Have glued onto that. I don't know how much will dissapate but the glue is not light. I'm fitting a big prop. I'm sure it will be slow but it will climb. My thoughts are it will weigh what it will. Saying that I'm keeping every thing to a minimum Lyndon
