  1. That would be great:) Hennie
  2. Dick I think issues of interest would be when it was "not" running properly. Do you know what those problems were? Hennie
  3. Do not forget about a removable piece in the shaft to swing the canopy open. Alternatively, split the canopy down the centreline:) Hennie
  4. Not a good idea. Rather Alodine it! There has been a lot of discussion around this issue. See:http://www.canardzone.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14024&highlight=alodine for the do's and a Don't Hennie

  6. around Aus $ 40 000 which excludes the engine but includes the A,B and C kit hennie
  7. Yes Indeed Here are so photographs The fuselage is io its wheels. The workmanship is of good quality. The owner (deceased) was an experienced builder with a Pulsar, Mustang, Cozy(partly built), under his belt. He must have been quite a character. I have not had sight of the wings but should be also of high quality. There is a rotary attached to the fuselage but does not form part of the sale. A continental and engine mount are available if required.
  8. I will have a look at the kit this week and post pictures and details Hennie

  13. Which system do you use now Lynn? Hennie
  14. I came across a discussion on the FlySube forum where the Autoflight H6 system was discussed. I contacted the designer to get a bit of information and he replied as follows: "This Autoflight H6 unit was based on the SUB4 unit I designed when I was at SUB4. The heavy duty SUB4 unit has a good track record also, although not available any more. What is the rating of the PSRU "Hennie, the H6 unit is good for up to 300 HP at 6000 rpm. NZD price is $4000.00 plus freight. Ratios are 1.9 or 2.2 or 2.4 to one. I have these units on the shelf ready for assembly and dispatch." and How many of these units are in operation and do we have a trackrecord on operating hours to date? "Eleven sold in 08, two on airboats in US, one at 200hrs and one at 500hrs. Two into South Africa, one at approx 350hrs, others not sure. Tend to dissapear to customers and I never hear again. I imagine if there were problems these customers would let me know. " Hennie
  15. Moral of the story is learn the basics first. Have fun, Chrissi If fun is this tough, I like it tough. There is quite a cnc home workshop movement in Perth. Some of the guys swear by Vetric and Mach. Most do 2.5 D with it, and will probably suffice for 95% of what I do. I had some training in CNC programming many years ago so that is helping a bit. All good fun...
  16. A program that lets you visualize the tool path in 3D really helps to pick up errors before you drive the end mill through your table. What are you using?. ..... Visualization wise
  17. Now that the CNC Bridgeport is running the angle brackets are a no-brainer. ...Chrissi GRRR My X2 received its timing pulles and belts today.... it is a lot of fun and tough learning curce... this "no brainer stuff" Hennie
  18. Merry Christmas to all. We got our pressies first Hennie
