AC90-89C. Minimum fuel flow for pressurized fuel systems 125% of maximum consumption rate, 150% for gravity. A 912ULS will consume @ 28l/hr full throttle so you need a minimum of over 40l per hour, my build delivered over 60. This test will need to be notated in the logs if your paperwork requirements are similar to that required in NZ, which are basically copied from the US FARs.

By crikey reading this thread just makes me so grateful that every one of the thousands of times I’ve hit the starter on a 912 over the last fifteen years or so it’s actually worked…….

What are you building Lyndon?

Plenty of adverse yaw in a Savannah but the Dynon autopilot I installed in my build performs beautifully.

Nah Perry just a few bits that have fallen off in flight over the years if that counts..😁

Gidday Bryan I’ve got about 1000hrs in Savannahs, roughly 850 in mine and the rest in six or seven other machines. Every one of them had insufficient trim range to cover the full speed range from 35 to 90 knots. It’d be very tiring to have to hold forward stick in cruise so in my opinion the tab on the elevator should be adjusted so you’re just on the verge of running out of forward trim at maximum cruise power. That way you’ll minimise the rearward stick force you’ll have to exert (As mentioned by IBob) when flying at the other end of the speed spectrum, around 35knts short final on a STOL approach. Peter

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.

Pretty sure the TT22 doesn’t have a serial output which you would need to integrate to the Skyview . ( TT 21 doesn’t and they are identical AFAIK except for output power) As has been noted before you can’t just hook up any GPS even though it might be format compatible and expect to be compliant for controlled airspace.

Trig manufactures com radios and transponders for Dynon. There are some software differences but large degrees of compatibility. The Skyview system also has serial ports so many other avionics can be “connected.” When I recently installed my Dynon Skyview I integrated the Trig TY91 com radio with the Skyview so it can be controlled from the screen, frequencies tuned from the airport identifier page that sort of thing.

Hi Skippy If your Dynon GPS is the SV-GPS-2020 then that meets the mandate for entry to controlled airspace. The previous SV-GPS-250 do not. Depends whether you want to enter controlled airspace or just want TABS level performance.

Trig does the talking here. SIL and SDA can be configured for your application be it just TABS or full ADSB out for homebuilt microlight experimental etc. TT21,TN72 and TA50 very popular in NZ for the above aircraft categories. Fully compliant for operations in controlled airspace in NZ. https://trig-avionics.com/product/tn72-gps-receiver/

Gidday Christin. Re tracking parts subsequent to sticker removal I took a lot of phone pics of parts. Another technique I found that worked really well for me was to measure the longest dimension of the part to the millimetre and catalogue that . Turned out to be an excellent way to keep track of everything, particularly on parts that very similar to many others.

This bearing doesn’t carry any thrust load, only rotational. The bungee suspension in this design absorbs thrust loading up until stops are reached.

Heard they’re nearly $70 NZ but look at the price of everything else……. Still, I’m told there are six under construction over here.

Hi Mark How much is a kit over your way these days?
