Re: O-200 Clicks and Clonks
damiantwinsport@...
Poor Ronnie, at least you are almost there with your airplane I still have to build a canard install it and ressurect my O200. All I get for flyovers is Heavies.... sometimes a police chopper. And at my hangar in Compton the local Gangstas have decided to take target practice on the building They put three rounds of 7.62X49 right through my building space adding another nick to poor N8427. Nice!

Damian I used a suggestion by Pat. Apply the micro with a serrated scraper so the glass is visible and can apply evenly and very easy to sand. Then apply another coat of micro just enough to fill the grooves and final sand not too heavy.

Styrofoam data sheet
Peter Harris <peterjfharris@...>
Damian I have found an info sheet on styrofoam which is (was) made in 7 different grades each designed for a certain application/purpose. Some details.....
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
type IB for panel core and fabrication, LT for low temp panel core, LB for high quality panel core,RTM for refrigerated trucks,HD300F for high load panels and floor inserts,SURF for surfboards, and CRAFT for craft material. I chose LB for the canard remake on my Q. It is fine textured and described as can be cut or planed or hotwire cut for a good bonding surface. Dimensionally stable. Density is 32 KG/M3 (IB is 28) compressive strength is 300KN/M2 (IB is 250) tensile strength is 500 KPA (IB is 450) The temp range of all of them is -50 to +75C There is a lot more data. This stuff is very different from the orange coarse foam originally used. We experimented and decided not to precoat it with micro which is used to fill the coarse orange foam. I got my product from Aerodynamic Developments Ltd down here it was imported from the states in billets 2400mm x 600 x 75 to 150mm thick made by Dow. Peter

I expect that there will be several hours of taxi testing before flight, so I'll have to take care and hope for not too much glazing. This will probably be mid year, by the time that PFA paperwork gets done. Engine installation about complete - except for the leaks and a few wires to be tidied. Need to hook up the radio and associated bits (PTT, aerial, h/phones etc) and finish the canopy locks. Fit the belts; bleed the brakes; finalise the battery installation - can easily continue to think of lots of little items to finish..... The type of pilot I am (more accurately builder as I'm not yet flying) is like I mentioned in the Q-Talk article. Bought a part-built and continued from then. Only significant modifications were to add the "6-pack". PS. Raoul, I know of 3 Q's with 0-235 installed. One is in Cyprus (I believe) but was built in UK; two others still in UK. One being built and the other in need of canard repair.

Jim, Mike, Bruce, thanks for your replies. I'm keeping close eye on the temperatures - especially CHT. No problem so far - all seems fine really so I think I'll keep running it, listening for strange noises. There's one impulse mag and one fixed, hand swinging with l/h mag on only.
