Marty_d Posted August 24 Posted August 24 I want to get a weather proof cover for the 701 - mainly because the windscreen and top polycarbonate get very dusty where it's currently sitting. Just sent a request for quote to Punkin Head - are there any other suppliers you can recommend? Anyone made their own?
skippydiesel Posted August 24 Posted August 24 (edited) My last aircraft had a nice homemade job (just for the cockpit). New plane has an at home, all over job and a separate, lightweight reflective canopy only, for away trips. Both by Punkin head. Photo of Mk1 away cover - needed fixing/adjustment, which they did.

440032 Posted September 4 Posted September 4 Punkin Head covers for the win. Unless she has a 701 nearby to examine, all she needs is some good paper templates, she should be able to advise how to make those. 1
Marty_d Posted September 5 Author Posted September 5 Yeah the quote was a bit high for me (not saying they're expensive, just that I'm cheap). I've ordered a car cover from Ebay and will set to work with scissors and the wife's sewing machine when it arrives. 1
fallowdeer Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Gidday Marty A couple of places over here make these for about $1200NZD. Heaps of nice features. Not sure if they have a pattern for a 701, this fits my S perfectly. 1
Marty_d Posted September 5 Author Posted September 5 Hi Fallowdeer, In the end I decided to make one - I've made the plane so the cover shouldn't be impossible. 3
