    Over here on East side our RPT are communicating with Brisbane Centre. I dual watch my local freq and the respective centre freq.
  2. Blueadventures
    Dual watch Centre Freq, that will show receiving, when you hear an aircraft call and they finish their communication you could ask for a radio check.

    25 not 50.; sorry for bad math / quick typing🙃.

    I took the two back today for a refund, got full price less 25% so $75; I bought something else for $30 and got the refund of $45. Great as bought them for $50 for 2 as marked 1/2 price at the counter. So turned a nice profit of $50, how good is that. That will buy some 95 for flying. Cheers.

    It's a great feature; I have it turned on. I apply the principles of being in head wind for the shortest possible time; by increasing to best speed.

    Looks compression from port leading edge tip and engine out port side of cowl.

    Thanks Kiwi, I had read that and will be assessing max temp that I think in places will exceed 50*C when parked outside.
  9. Blueadventures
    Wow, terrible news as looks a hard hit and engine ripped out, likely an RV6 or similar. Hope they fully recover quickly.

    Just for me; a reminder prompt of best glide speed 58 kts. Blue line is a twin engine thing but won't hurt for me as a prompt.
  11. Blueadventures
    Better?😇🙃

    I bought 2 of these today at Auto Barn, 1/2 price $25 each.

    Thanks Gary. Old mate Skip is on another of usual annoying rants about his old Zephur and making negative comments about other aircraft makes, must be an owner operator, I see the 122 at 450kg MTOW is 41 Kts no flap and 35 Kts with flaps extended. Therefore the Nynja needing 2 kts more speed with flaps deployed and carrying 150Kg more (+33.33% more) is a more superior and more versatile aircraft.
  14. Blueadventures
    It is flys bit like a drone, but thanks and yes need to trim to 37 kts when next out there, just had to double check the speed data. 👍

    Changed out the original 20-120Kts ASI for a UMA 20-140 instrument and placed the colour speed rings for the now 132kt redline for VNE as part of finishing the 600 kg upgrade, Did a fly and tested stall etc. All good.

    From webb, I do have a 2024 book I got at Oshkosh. I prefer the book at times. This is the first time I have ordered from Melbourne. I did phone first and then placed order online. They were very helpful over the phone.

    Got my new operating range markers today from Aircraft Spruce delivery just over $11 and very fair. I added some of the reusable grip cable ties to try. Very easy to deal with and the postage rates are displayed and makes easy to decide if you want fast delivery or the cheaper longer time.
  18. Blueadventures
    That's great to hear. Lyndon should contact you direct to hear how the RAAus system currently happens.

    Hi light the x in left hand tool bar for user way points to show.
  20. Blueadventures
    Agree mostly; however have not seen any recent updates to my understanding that RAAus not accepting the SAAA MPC; There is a process to send MPC and the training to CASA for some sort of acceptance. I am awaiting the guidance and process details. Yes; Pilot maintenance is described but that doesn't cover all scheduled items in annual inspections etc.

    I enjoyed an evening in December 1979 at his Upper Coomera property, Russ was not in attendance only the work crews. Cheers.
  22. Blueadventures
    For builder and owner maintenance and over 600kg (your 703 target) go SAAA. RAA not fully ready for the 760 max yet, only select are in at present and the maintenance is only LAME and no other option available as yet and maybe a while away.
  23. Blueadventures
    Yes, best you talk to each. I’m happy for a pm re RAAus but can’t assist re SAAA in any capacity. Seems your build is underway so recommend you contact each then you can decide. Best regards Mike
  24. Blueadventures
    Same for the control circuits, I believe. Bilders should have the recipe for the build process. I am not a member of SAAA so don't know their requirements.
  25. Blueadventures
    The RAAus requirement is 3; Extract from tech manual; 3.1.3 STAGE INSPECTIONS To provide assurance of appropriate processes and construction techniques during the build process, a minimum of three staged build inspections should be carried out by an RAAus L1 (approved by the HAM on evidence of having previously constructed an amateur built aircraft), L2 or L4 maintainer. These staged build inspections of the aircraft should be conducted at key points of the construction of the aircraft, including, but not limited to, prior to closing of structures, engine installation, painting, rigging of primary flight controls and or wings, etc. Once each build inspection is complete, advice of completion is to be supplied by the stage inspector to RAAus using Tech Form 002 - Stage Inspection Amateur Built Aircraft within 14 days. The form is retained in the aircraft file at RAAus. Recording of the build inspection should also be entered in the aircraft builder’s log. SAAA will have their requirements; They will advise what is required if he does not know or have questions. Not doing them can end in a world of extra work and hurt.
