    Fuel tank strange phenomena ....

    Hi Wayne. It's the servos. I have a separate filler line. Total of three, carb, air and fill. But since this is a parallel setup ALL are with aluminum T's.

    Fuel tank strange phenomena ....

    Well it was when I did the ground break in sequence so I do reckon that's the course. I'll make sure all you've said will be double check next time when I'll do the test flight.

    I've got an experimental prop from Mejzlik for a test trial it's about a 1/4" wider in diameter then the 29-13.5Q 2 blades it spools in about 6100-6200 rpm. The engine runs cooler smoother and the noise is even quitter.

    It's like a paper cut $&@&?! Not to mention if you have carbon reinforcement inside, those hard carbon needles can really mess up your day.

    Somethings I've been doing with all my Krills is to isolate the parts that are being connected with a heavy duty clear tape. The reason is plain and simple, chafe that leaves a lot of color powder between the two parts. The one I'm using is by 3M that I bought when I've visited the states on...

    No shortcuts.... Eventually i did install the blind nuts on the pants it seems that the thread with the carbon won't hold The stress and the vibrations of the plane and flight that being said what I did is to drill a hole through the pants and the main gear in the blind but will stick out from...

    Fuel tank strange phenomena ....

    It seems that the carb or something else is pushing air through the line blowing air bubbles is the tank. Both tanks are having it. First time I see it. What is it and is it something familiar ?? Look at the video.

    Tomorrow we're doing the engine's break in. It's a 25 minutes procedure on the ground. Then at the end of next week in gods speed we'll do the test flight. Now it's just to shorten up things.

    Today I did some improvements to the pants. Added some carbon instead of a wooden support. Also made the area where the screw needs to be with about 5 small diagonal layers, drilled it and taped it instead of the conventional blind nut. Now the entire surface that is attached to the gear is...

    MVVS 175 with 3 and 2 blades

    Hi guys I've got a new experimental prop from Mejzlik It's a 29.5-13.5Q. Although the 29-13.5Q was turning at 6330 rpm static we thought that maybe .5" will load the engine just a little to make it even more quite yet very throttle responsive and powerful like the stocked one. Like I've said...

    Carbon Propeller Repair

    Use the method bill wrote you. It's the one I'm using. The thin CA will glue the loos fiber the medium will fill the missing chunk. If you want to sand it use a razor knife and peel away the CA excess. Use a sandpaper and Then use a polish grade paste and polish it for best surface texture.

    I think it will be easier since the cone can swivel so all you'll need to do is just mark the blades location on the back plate and then attach the cone and make the slots for the blades with a contour gage for the exact shape of the blades, on the mark locations.
