Part WTF. I'm sure it goes somewhere but I can't find it in my manual. Sf024. Any ideas ??? Got to go somewhere in the control stick I'm sure Lyndon

Propeller choice. I have spoken to the guys at bolly. They are local to me. Two choices, a cheaper heavier prop for about 1250 or a lighter one for about 1750. I have zero experience with props but things that turn it's always nice to be light ???. I'm at this stage going for the large diameter one. Thoughts from those who have be there and done that.

Looks very neat. I have ordered some. Lyndon

Great will do that. Lyndon
-
And your happy with the outcome. Lyndon

the lower coolant hoses very close to the exhaust. Which is the way to go. Heat shield the hoses with sleeves or wrap the exhaust pipes. Any experience of what works best ??? Lyndon

Great thanks a lot. Lyndon

Thanks for that. Lock or plain washers ??. Lyndon

Engine mount questions. I bought this Engine used and it came with a bracket mounted to the engine and then that screwed to the box. Eg they just put my used engine in the box the replacement engine came in. I have no info 're torque values or what bolts to use or washers or loctite etc. It came with four black set screws that look like what is used from pics I see in my manual. Any info would be great. Thanks Lyndon

Yes I do. Makes sense. Engine is in. Feel like I'm making progress
-
Thanks. Lyndon

My manual says to wire the nut on the front wheel axle. ??? Is that necessary as it has a nyloc on it ??? Lyndon
-
Thanks. I got marine fuel line from Reg. It looks like this maybe fire resistant from what they say on the net ??? Lyndon
-
I see some wanky blue fuel line in some of the threads. I do like it in the engine bay. Where does one get this stuff. Lyndon
-
My friction block is way to small in diameter. Has anyone else found this. I'm not wanting to rush in and enlarge it ??? Lyndon
-
Thanks. Yep I have left the bottom angulars free of rivets on the end. Will fit counter sunk. My frame is sprung and the top is at least 30 mm away from the fire wall. Within reason the cabin and engine mount seem to mount on the top firewall where they like give or 10 mm. Be nice if this was pre drilled. I will have a go at it. Probably easier than it looks when I actually do it. Thanks Lyndon
-
Yep the brackets under on the bottom. Holes line up in the pad ???. Is this the top center. Thanks Lyndon
-
Engine mount. I'm about to fit it. Any tips on this. It's all a bit flexible as is the cabin frame that it mates to on the top. The manual says nothing about location in any detail ???. So is just a matter of fitting where it seems nice or is there a specific point where it needs to go. On the top of my fire wall I two little holes that seem to do nothing in the center ?? From what I can see these have nothing to with it or am wrong. Any guidance would be great. Thanks Lyndon

Like then asap as I want to get my plane off the bench onto it's wheels. It looks like I need a lot and there is not enough in the kit. The bench is taking up to much room and needs to go. I will call first thing Monday and they can overnight them. Thanks Lyndon
-
Anyone know where I can get some of these an03-5 bolts in Adelaide. Postage is very high on the net for a few dollars worth of bolts. Lyndon

Is it a good idea to fit the control assembly at this stage before I get it on its wheels. I see there is some fuel stuff in here as well. I have it on its side so I can paint the underside so it's easy to access at the moment or is ok to do when it's on the wheels. Thanks Lyndon
-
Great thanks. I'm fitting the leg now. But of work getting it to fit so it moves up and down. I have the upper bearing correct I take it. The manual shows quite clearly the square plate on the bottom of the race and then again on top. I have it on the bottom. Thanks Lyndon
-
Mark. I read about you finding these washers that were hidden for the mixing assembly. Do you have a pic of what they look like. I'm at this stage. Thanks Lyndon
-
I have bought the upgrade for the front leg. Does this replace the existing part on each side or added to the std ones ??? Thanks Lyndon
