I decided to order one from Bogert. It will arrive end of this week. Will post pictures and review after using it.

I also got insurance during the build, but paid significantly more than $300 a year. I would definitely get it unless you are comfortable self insuring.

If I remember correctly, we are supposed to see a flying prototype at SnF.

My plane was weighed, and it came in at 1,100 lbs. This is with a chute. So almost 1,000 lbs useful load.

I got a copy from TAF in California. I plan to enter it into foreflight, and also put a copy in the G3X.

The amazing Tsi with air conditioning in Australia has a tow bar. I just noticed in his youtube video. I'll ask Barry as well, thanks!

Has anyone searched for a tow bar yet? I had a Bogert for my Tecnam, but figured before I contacted them I would see if anyone here has found a towbar for the Tsi.

Lose performance? I couldn't look myself in the eye if the 150 knots dropped into the 140's. Pants are staying on for sure.

I've seen 2's and 4's flying around on grass in S. Africa, I was hoping someone would have feedback on flying off grass.

Thanks for responding Philip!

I have an opportunity to keep my Tsi at a grass strip. 2200' x 100'. Any thoughts, pro or con, at keeping a new Tsi at a grass strip?

Just remarkable. Looks like climb rate was around 200-300 feet at that elevation.
