And obviously major unending kudos to Dan for putting all that stuff online for free! Saved me metric buttloads of pain and suffering for sure. -- -MD #2827 (still thinking about planning on

Thanks! Before buying my kit I read all the QAC newsletters online. Luckily my kit came with hard copies of all the QAC newsletters and all the Q-Talks before they went digital. The only glaring

Say Michael that news letter was a ton of info! Really enjoyed looking it over!. Bruce

Sam, is that plate aluminum or steel? Thickness? -- -MD #2827 (still thinking about planning on visualizing how to finish building)

Here’s another cable option that allows for differential between rudder and tailwheel but Sam’s set up is a lot easier to install especially on a finished airplane. Like he said, no destruction.

No destructions needed, this photo shows all. The turnbuckle cable goes to the rudder bellcrank. Sam

Sam: Do you have instructions/drawings/parts list for your cable splitter in the files section somewhere, or on your blog? Might be an easier retrofit on a completed bird. -- -MD #2827 (still

Yes, the old pump was repaired. But it's so old that I'm only going to use it in the airplane now. Fly Safe, Mike Dwyer YouTube Videos: https://goo.gl/yKEHfK Q200 Website: http://goo.gl/V8IrJF

Good idea, I'll try that. Now that I think about it (and now six states away from the plane), the main bus isn't that hard to get to.

Easy stuff first: Try connecting a 9 volt battery to the Hobbs meter directly using alligator clips. Wait 6 minutes and see if it turns... -- -MD #2827 (still thinking about planning on visualizing

Maybe instead of solid state the new ones are "quiet state" 😁 Mike: Do you think the diode could be replaced and the pump repaired? Be an interesting data point and might leave you a spare... Would

I have to complete the six pack too.

I intend to complete the six pack, once I get the plane back to Michigan.

Bruce is correct, you have to adjust the cable to the rudder with the tailwheel spring unloaded. If the cable is too loose, you can encounter rudder flutter at the higher speeds. This is unnerving,

Oh, that makes sense: I did have weight on the tailwheel. And the build instructions do show springs wrapped around. Thanks!

Is thy that with the tail wheel off of the ground? The tail spring flex will perhaps make it tighter when the load is off. You can take the slack off the cable by putting a couple of springs from

Of course it matters. I do think we have better "alternative" development happening now than ever before. But I think they has more to do with advances in engine management technology than some magic

I believe the LS1 showed up around 1982 if my memory is correct. Jim N46JP Q200 Sent from Outer Space
