Re: elt location

I made a bracket and mounted mine in the aft fuselage by the baggage extension. My ELT antenna is also under the tail fairing rather than by the rear seats. I would post a picture but I cant figure out how to do it on this forum sorry.

Re: Epoxy primer?

I ended up using a 2 part epoxy primer. https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/ ... primer.php
I’m using a Fuji MiniMite3 turbine/ sprayer and it shoots great. Yes it’s more work but all in all I don’t really feel like it’s that bad.

Re: Countersinking

Thanks for the advice. What ended up working for me is putting another piece underneath it so the pilot part of the bit has more surface area. I’m thinking I should not have to do that for the spars as they are a lot thicker.

Re: Countersinking

Have you guys had problems with the holes turning oblong while countersinking? I am using high speed and a micro stop but the pilot holes are getting ovaled. Not sure what I’m doing wrong.
