Hello Cliff

Hope all is doing well by you.

Our motor and prop are on order, looking forward to tackling the pointy end!

Thinking about how to incorporate a Cowl Flap, and like your set up. I don't
have any feel for what sort of loads such a thing has.

Can you give me some sort of heads up as to how hard it is to deploy, are your
hinges robust enough, is there a speed max, and max deploy if closed speed? If
you were to do it again, any comments?

I have glider wings, and plan on installing a oil thermostat as well.

Thx.
Sincerely
Ron Parigoris
