Fwiw, the differential pressure ports can also be on the pitot tube, if it is carefully located out of the wing's interference. My homegrown pitot will be well ahead of the wing. Dynon also has a dif
Pics are always great, but I'd love to see many more wide angle go-pro style vids on YouTube .... there are sadly extremely few from Europa's. Vids are very motivational for the builders among us :-)
Not having installed my nifty Tosten (www.tostenmanufacturing.com) grips yet, I was wondering if the raked condition could be rectified by milling up some custom off-axis grip-mount-plugs instead of
approx how many pounds of push/pull stick force is it at cruise with a runaway trim (with a stock length stick)? cheers & thx, Pete e bent ed == == == m/Navigator?Europa-List>* == tronics.com/Navigat
Very interesting! I would be very interested in the details. As an alternative, could a small tube made of a suitably resistant material (run against the outside of the tank) be used for the detector
Ingenious! Truly slick and (mechanically) simple and non-intrusive. Patent it, quick! ;-) Would you be amiable to supplying code etc. to avoid duplication of effort? Cheers and thx! Pete A239
Very nice sensor (I would go the paralled 'dipstick' tube route) - thx for the link! I could not find any compatibility tables and wonder if any of the nasties (are there chlorinated solvents?) in au
An ingenious solution, and perfectly executed. Kudos! You could sell it easily to the other builders like me, or at least the board layout, and code....(which I'd like to duplicate for each saddle, a
I would assume that you would lose some of the contrast performance due to light being "conducted" through the tank material itself, regardless of barrier? Cheers, Pete own the a g el l, s == == == =
I'll also be there again this year (Jul23-Aug3), same 'camping' spot in the first front yard from the tower/bus entrance (pic attached not sure if it'll go through - email me for it if it doesn't). C
Lunch sounds good... Tues works for me. A dinner sounds great too sometime , and may be even more feasible since after the show hours folks may not hav e as many 'missions' to take care of. There are
I'm in! Looking forward to it! Cheers, Pete Homebuilders HQ as its easy to find. We can then decide which venue we want to grace with our presence;^) What say 1130?
Dinner announcement! :-) There are few of us here at the homebuilder's hq, at 10:15, for the "logisti cs meeting", but there are a few missing still. Since Jim and Heather are leaving tomorrow after
OOPS! When we were discussing the dinner tonight, we had all forgotten about tonight's concert......so the dinner tonight as proposed is *cancelled* I'll also leave a note on my trailer's whiteboard.
....not for 99% of the veteran Europa-ites on the list, but may be of some value to the still uninitiated? http://curedcomposites.com/finish.html Cheers, Pete A239
I can second that! Easy-peasy now - even for a Canuck like me. Definitely worth a try - the mag is excellent quality and I find it well worth it to feel a bit connected with the Europa epicenter :-)
i have used the icom a24 without issue with the supplied headset adapter, wi th the bose a20 and a ptt switch plugged into the adapter. cheers, pete lly made for this and works very well. But of cour
Wrt dynon, please keep in mind that their attitude "gyro" algorithm requires valid airdata (and gps fallback) to prevent drift/tumbling. Every year at oshkosh I ask if they have resolved their "edge
