    Sorry David, I was an Airtronics guy before I switched to Jeti this year. Wish I knew where to point you for help.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Stacey, have to move the throttle and choke servos to different spots due to the rear carb, make an air/blow back dam in the area behind the carb and fuel proof it, finish recovering the repair areas and fire it up. I am going with 14" headers to start with and see how things go. Something tells...

    @Jetpainter, I am looking at getting a little bit thicker dowel that is hardwood rather than just pine :)

    Didn't make it to the shop because........

    Because I was flying all weekend :) Had an IMAC contest in Wrightsville, AR this weekend. Thought I was going to be able to get some pictures but, things were going along so well I forgot to take the camera out until late Saturday. Then after I did I think I only got about 10 pictures.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Surveyed the damage to the 330LX when I had to dead stick it in again :( Not to bad. Actually have the gear block epoxied and curing. Should be able to get it back together tomorrow night and get what little bit of sheeting I need back in place so everything is ready for a nice shiny new power...

    Matchboxes

    Yes, I have used the Intellimatch IM-22's on a few different planes with great results. Just make sure you follow the directions when setting the unit up. I would highly recommend using a separate power supply while doing the matching.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I got the Edge out today seeing as how the 330LX had the gear ripped out due to a dead stick from a broken hub bolt :( Figured I better get some time back in on the Edge before the contest this coming weekend :) The DLE 170 doesn't make near the power of the engine that was in the Extra but, it...

    Awesome Video Thread

    Ok, now that I have watched 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and the Aerobatic Practice from 2015 :) I thought this was really cool, probably because I like to fly IMAC and this really hit home :)

    Fuel tank idea

    The main key to the dual tank setup is making sure the lines off the T-fittings to the tanks are the same size and length. I run dual 32oz tanks on my Edge with a DLE 170 and it works great. I would go to a single 50oz tank but, that dle drinks gas for some reason and I would hate to run out of...
