RV7 it will be VH rego

Luca ... If you go to this page 17 on my rebuild blog you do what I did on the outer tank sections. I changed my tanks but the process is still the same Have a read through this blog if you havent already this may give you some insights into the construction. I have made mods though to what I want in mine. My previous blog building a new XL is also on here if you ahvent read it..it is the first one I built some 9 years ago and it will show you some tips as well On page 4 you will see I did the same thing

No those pots at te side are audio stuff adjustment. The VCO is internal in the frequency design..its setup at manufacture

radio micro processors can have a heart attack with unclean powersupplys

The engine running shouldnt make any difference unless your regulator on the engine is putting out high volts or spikes..check your regulator output

Voltage Controlled Oscillator...its basically the main frequency control of the radio. It is the frequency driven by the PLL (Phase Locked Loop)...if the VCO or PLL dont work properly the radio is not under frequency control. The microair has a big habbit of just running off to other frequies of its own choice.

The VCO maybe dropping out....its a common issue with the Microair

Hahahah buy another radio...waste of money continuing try to fix a bad design

Here in OZ most seem to be running 2 blade wood props but some do use the carbon fibre 2 blades

He has a Jab engine so only certain props can be used because it is a direct drive engine Eprop are testing props for those style of engines now and will soon release their versions. There will be 2 and 3 blade available I am told

Sent you a PM now

Yes just chasing his number now

Dr kev still has his and it is forsale

Yes there is one at Caboolture for sale It looks like that one pictured

I just re enable the same one before it ends its on my telstra app

I use the Telstra 5gb one its $50 I just redo it every year. I only use the that Ipad for flying though

Its the level of noise that triggers the vox operation...your issue is the frequency of the noise I think. Once the mic is open it is getting the higher frequency audio of the engine noise. So you have to desensitise the microphone a bit to compensate

Try the Intsqh Thats the vox tripping for the intercom that will also tell you your audio out level quite a lot if you ahve a mate beside you..he will hear how much noise is in the cockpit in the background and that will allow you to adjust the internal micaudio level Its a adjustment you need to play with..its like running a pool at home its a balance of salt and chlorine and PH to get the levels you want. I have a new MGL V16 radio here and its a digital version it also has issues that are caused by all of the adjustments and how you do them but when you get the balance right between mic element audio level the internal radio mic gain etc it sounds really good on transmission

I will look in the manual Vox is the sidetone audio pickup level. Thats a good indicator of what level you should be using as it is the same audio (and background) level that goes out when you hit the PTT button

Bob Your turn the mic gain down on the mic element then you have to turn up the internal mic audio on the radio. On both my Lightspeeds the mic gain was almost totally off to get really good performance...when I adjusted the mic element it was orginally set from new about just over half way which was way too much. Its a balancing act but you only want your voice to be picked up. Your mic on your headset should be sitting about 2mm from your lips...no further out this keeps the ambient noise especially at high rpm away from the mic as your voice level will be the only thing it should be hearing..also your Vox adjutment will come into this as well. You may need to increase the vox adjustment

Nev The parts in the kit are very well made. All the CNC stuff is really nice. The manuals are very good although you use 3 manuals to build. A text manual, a figures manual and a assembly drawing manual Lots of videos out now too with guys doing their builds and any snags or tricks to help the build Just have to get Mabel painted and down to the hangar then I can finally get to start mine

The S-21 TD is extremely tame. I didnt do any takeoffs or landings as I dont that that endorsement but was watching and there was virtually no dancing at all on the peddels for take off or landing and I had 2 flights over 3 days. The last day and its on my video in the last 1/3 of it all that low leve; the winds were 20kts and more that day This is me filming back in 2018 and my mrs was pretty excited after her flight

Tail dragger 🙂 Got to do a TD endorsement yet. If Group G isnt ready when she is ready to fly then I will do my RPL in a TD aircraft I tried to cover both bases

No it doesnt.....the Group G is based on the MTOw The Titan is 818kg..as I said before it fits the flying specs easily but does NOT fit the gross spec. The Rotax powered version is 727kg gross

$1400 to $1600 My Xcom was about $1200 back then
