Hi Joe You need to slide the fuel level sender base closer to the fuel tank root rib and drill 2 new mounting holes for it. Make sure you have good clearance between the float ball and WG-RIB-204. The new kits will have the holes drilled in the correct position. Regards Armin That makes sense. Than...

The revised fuel level arm detail (sheet 27) in DC-KAI-002-X-F-6.4 does not work, for me at least.

The 181mm is way too long. What gives??

Thanks!,
Joe

Not sure I can help but I did the elevator a couple months ago and did not have a problem.

I've been flying on and off for a number of years now, but given the lack of aircraft available for...

Hi Joe! Welcome! I'm building (slowly) in Cocoa, so rather close, and I'm in Tampa every few weeks for work, so would love to connect if you want to! I hope you weathered the storm ok, and look forward to meeting you! We will definitely get together. I am actually in Lecanto, in Citrus County. I wo...

Hi Joe! Welcome! Evan and I talked about that kit for a while before we decided to pass on it. Glad it went to somebody who’s going to contribute to the community! Out of curiosity, what size fuel tanks does the kit have? There was some question about which version of the wing the kit had and that ...

Hello all you swingers - I mean slingers! Like many I have thought about building an airplane for awhile. Being a macho guy I decided I will build whatever the heck I want! ...as long as my wife gives me permission. All 2 place planes were immediately out because well I mean - where are we going to ...
