    Why don't you pay a few dollars a year . It supports the running of this site and you will get your 30 minutes.
  2. BrendAn
    Why.
  3. BrendAn
    I agree. I am going to check where all my earths are running too .

    The question is why do they bother doing it. Running the risk of wrecking their aircraft just to show off.

    So you say if I chuck a jumper on there and the radio comes good I have achieved nothing. Its a quick job on my xair. Battery and antenna are only a meter apart.

    it takes a minute to run a jumper wire to earth. and that will tell me straight away. why do i want a cheap multimeter , i already have 2 good ones,😁

    gets wet when you slow down though.

    as far as voltage regulators go, its pity powermate regs are not made anymore. very robust and i get a constant 14v

    my antenna from mendehlsons came with foil tape to make a ground plane if needed. i am thinking my fuse tube may not have a good earth to the battery so on the weekend i will try a jumper wire from antenna mount to bat neg.

    did mine online, it worked . except they doubled the aircraft so i had to fill in the survey twice for the same plane before it would go through.

    Thanks Geoff. The shield just goes in the back of the plug . I assume it earths at the antenna mount. I will try a jumper lead from mount to batt neg and see if that does anything.
  13. BrendAn
    I am pretty clueless with this stuff. How do you earth the shield at the radio.
  14. BrendAn
    The antenna base is on a metal bracket on the fuse tube. You just made me think of something. The fuse tube might not be earthed if everything else goes to the battery. Thanks Geoff . Will have a look at that

    My DC's are not anr, that's why the Bose is better than them.

    Designed for national geographic to do a tv series in the Congo. It's in the link above.

    I just bought a set of refurbished Bose a 10s for 800. Fantastic compared to my DC's. Wish I could spare 2000 for new ones . Maybe down the track. I couldn't here the CFI properly with the DC's now I hear him loud and clear.

    Can I hijack this thread why you are talking electrics. I have an mgl radio and when I click the push to talk the tacho needle goes haywire. Reception is also scratchy. Would this be a dirty earth somewhere.

    I thought the ultra cruiser was not part 103.

    I thought those conversions had a tooth belt reduction drive.

    Had a look at the spacek after you mentioned it. Very nice looking plane.

    If you watch the video at the start they talk about this and how Kawasaki aviation was the fore runner to Kawasaki motorcycles.
