We see a fair number of completion inspections where I work at Velocity. The inspector tells us the rules for data plates have changed in the years since 9-11 and the FAA requires the inspectors to be

HI Jason. I admire your ambition going the CNC route. I suspect the numbers you require have simply not been measured, so nobody has them to give to you. You may have to reverse-engineer this by build

Jason, I asked Scott Swing your question and he verifies that UNI is to be 7 oz. and BID 8 oz. --- In Q-LIST@..., Jason Muscat <fifty101fifty@...> > it the in at 7

I am travelling and not in good connection with the net for another week, so I will check Dan's site out at home. I am not stuck on Yahoo as forum host site. Yahoo does inflict us with needless spam.

I can confirm that Victor has invited the Q community to his canard fly-in. He called yesterday asking me to pass the word along. I'll vouch for Victor. He is an avid home-builder and a very experienc

I was curious about this as in theory the additional dissimilar metal junction will cause errors in the readings. As an experiment I tried connecting a type K thermocouple to a digital thermometer rea

Yes, but note that in a firewall connector you will expect a higher temperature on the engine side compared to the cabin side. There will be an error but it really is not significant. Even if you use

The high end ones certainly do, such as Garmin 900X or 1000. I have not seen anything in the Dynons, GRT Avionics, JPI, etc that I have dealt with in recent years to indicate they compensate. Or if th

Hey Bruce, well done! Rick

What is your plan if the D100 fails? Kind of putting all your eggs in one basket? Even a portable GPS would give ballpark info. Rick

Bruce, isn't that the same carb as the RSA? If so the arms for mixture and throttle can be rotated on the shafts to suit your need. Rick

Yes Bruce. My reply was partly in error, the RSA is a servo, not a carb, but I was only wrong in the letters. The M-S carb line has passed through several owner companies with name changes but the tec

Why are there political comments in this forum? Best to leave those elsewhere, thanks. Rick

Calling them ADs is not a good idea because AD is a legal document and procedure which is not available to us. We should call them something different. For example, in the Light Sport industry, servic

We have the wrong subject for this discussion of Q-List and Q-Performance. How about someone who knows how running a poll on the question? Rick

I like to think of it more as guidelines than rules. The more I think about it the less I want to see only one forum. If we put all the discussions into Q-List there is no place for the farther-out to

Hi Mike, What kind of coax cable are you using, and how old is the cable? If you have RG-58 and especially if it is old, consider replacing it with RG-400. You can use the same BNC connectors as RG-58

Fascinating! Thanks for posting it Rick

Be careful you get your regulations straight before trusting what someone (including myself) tells you. I believe you will find that ELSA does NOT give you design modification rights as does Experimen

Fantastic report Mike. I look forward to your adventures! Rick Hole
