Hey guys. I found out im going to be getting a divorce. As many of you know a divorce isnt usualy cohesive to an airplane build. I was wondering if you could help me with rough idea of what I can get for it? Its probably 80% done. All the boot cowl is done and the motor is in and the spinner...

Im getting to the point of ordering the flying wires. Ive read that a place ( unsure where) will make a deal if a group of us buy at once? Does anyone have that info and is anyone wanting to buy soon?

Does anyone have pictures of a 4 place with an O470? I set the motor and I'm trying to decide how to run exhaust and still have room for 2 muffs. I've found a few decent ways to route the exhaust but it doesn't leave me a long or straight section to build a muff into. Any help would be greatly...

In laying out my panel and found the g3x templates but can't find switches keys etc . Any pointers on where to find templates to print?

Many of you asked for an update after I installed the oratex. The plane is almost done other than a flap and landing gear. I ran out of glue. If you have any questions feel free to ask. The oratex is not as easy to install as other fabrics but it wasn't all that hard once you get the hang of it...

After months of waiting for my fabric to arrive I was excited to see it on Monday. When I opened the Box everything appeared to be there including 3 rolls of the oratex 6000 fabric. We took the 1st roll out and cut it and started applying it to the control surfaces. Today we opened the other 2...

I was planning to use Stein Air to build my panel and supply all avionics but they just told me they are probably 6 to 8 months from getting to my panel. I really don’t want to wait that long. Do do any of you recommend a shop that has fair prices and will provide and build everything?

What do you call the liquid you place on a finished bolt and nut to look for movement? Ive looked everywhere and cant find it.

I ordered the Oratex over a month ago. 2 weeks ago I asked about it and was told they were short on the 6000 material but had 3 lengths they could send. They were all long enough and would work so I accepted. They said it would ship the next day. Since then I've emailed and texted but nobody...

I'm shopping for an ELT. The price is drastically different from 121.5 to GPS. I notice most back country pilots carry the portable gps locators on them also. What system did you or are you going to use?

Here's my design.

Hey guys I'm getting ready to trim out the aluminum around my side windows and I'm finding at the top of the window you can't overlap the aluminum far enough to seal that area from wind. Could you guys tell me what you did or even better take pictures of this area?

Afternoon, We are currently starting to cover N97RM with Oratex and its time to think about inspection covers. I have bought a bunch of the standard 4 inch round ones from Spruce but since I have a suspension tailwheel I will need more access. I was thinking of cutting out an inspection ring in...

I am installing the aero strips onto my tail feathers and it struck me that I heard somewhere that I should change my angle of incidence. Ive searched it but must not be using the proper wording. Does anyone know the procedure or how many washers to add...lol

I received my brake today in the mail and to test it I ran air in one side and then closed the valve. Seemed to me that the valve should stop the flow of air but it did not. Am I missing something?
