After several attempts to read your post I think I understand your point so let me assure you that I've taken all possible precautions to make my engine as safe as possible. All issues on my engine are common on the A...

Re: Waiex Build Status and Completion Photos
Looks great, Mike! You might consider making a new flap handle to allow 3 flap positions. The "full flap" setting is difficult to set in flight becasue of the drag and that's pretty much all it is...lot's of drag with very little reduction in stall speed. Your mileage may vary...:) That's...

Re: Waiex Build Status and Completion Photos
I thought someone had estimated around 40-50 or so total, but I'm not sure if that's still accurate or not. I would also be interested in knowing...

Re: Videos...Post them here...!
Amazing Kip...you really created a masterpiece! My hope has always been to park my Waiex next to yours at Oshkosh but after seeing your plane I would probably embarrass myself if I did. :? Is that a Dragonfly in your hangar? Looks like fun 8-) One more quick question...how did you make up your tail ...
