Re: Jabiru 3300 Installation tricks/tips/gotchas

I'm glad to hear all is well with the engine Kip. Does it burn any oil? Hopefully you're all set for your trip now. When are you setting out on the journey?

Re: ONEX panel alternative

I like it. Mike may be right..the iPad may block a little view but that's up to you. I've been having great luck with my iPad on my leg and I know there are "kneeboard" iPad holders...I'll probably pick one up. Quick question...why did you raise your panel? Are you thinking about adding st...

Re: Waiex #0056 - N569KM First Flight 4/2/2012

Welding scares me so I'd probably be looking for a good used one, then as a last resort a new one. Can you find good used ones around?

Man Kip that's awesome!! Those look great! I have a stupid question for you...are there ailerons on both wings or bottom only? Hopefully your spars and hardware will be here soon. Has the fuselage been ordered yet? Thanks for sharing and keep with the updates.

Re: Onex flight!

Thanks for the posting Chad! When can we expect to see your article on the plane? I can't wait to read it!

I think a Onex sitting in your hangar next to the Tailwind would be pretty cool! :mrgreen:

Re: Looking for Cowling Tips

Hi Keith, Kip is right on with his pointers...work slowly as its much easier to sand a few thousands off verses taking off too much and needing to add material back.

Re: Waiex #0056 - N569KM First Flight 4/2/2012

Thanks Kip...I enjoyed writing it. Although I think I still like watching your videos more! Phase 1 is going slower than I was hoping. I'm trying to stick with a 5 knot crosswind limit and the winds in central Ohio have been pretty strong lately. I recently took your advice and added a 20 degree not...

Re: Control Stick Assy interference with Wing Spar Tunnel

Hi Rodger, Boy I wish I could help on this one, but I don't remember having that issue with my stick. Just my opinion but it would almost appear that your entire stick assembly is too low. If you keep your stick centered, can you then get full forward deflection? You may want to check the attach ang...
