I bought the front end kit and had the frame made up locally so perhaps consider that. Plans on their website and I used the closest metric measurement steel tube - the frame doesn’t have to be identical provided it’s built square and the throw distance for the press is similar. Some bolts are SAE a...

I thought it would be worth sharing my experience with this light - well, more accurately the manufacturer. My TSi is in the very early build stage but I went ahead and bought Aeroled Pulsar NSP wingtip lights and a pair of Aveo Minimax Ariel Daylights, one red and one white. Overkill, but the thoug...

Hi all A quick intro, I'm based near Durban, South Africa and I received my Sling TSi empennage kit on 11 October. I'm looking forward to the journey ahead! I'll be building her in my garage at home.
