  1. Easy enough to make with a hole saw. Maybe even a Wad Punch set. Try hole saw first out on 1mm nylon sheet. Cheers.
  2. Yeah mate, No. Just shows my poor IT skills. I tried all I knew even copied and inverted the image and it still displayed upside down. If a moderator can invert I'll be happy.
  3. Had a great fly this morning for WUFI day with Sandy. Perfect spring weather.

  5. I have a brand new valve, it was with the kit. Don't like the fact could / will develop a leak so never fitted it. It's in my parts box; would not bother fitting one myself. Better in my opinion to use two spanners and new crush washer. Not much time saving really at end of day. I respect other's opinion on the matter though.
  6. You can go to the Maps (above the bottom band, left side look above there are three icons; tap the right one) That will open the Maps list; tap VFR box top right, then individually select what you want eg VTC etc. I just download Hybrid VFR from the earlier screen. Learn to use it as it is great for VFR. don't give up. Cheers.
  7. Maybe disconnect that while you are trouble shooting; if fused just pull that fuse.
  8. Any 5volt usb outlets in use? If so post images of where they are.
  9. Maybe post some images of under the dash and engine compartment, showing the wiring and the items there.
  10. Have you worked through this section of the Jabiru manual 'Radio Frequency (RF) Noise Reduction'?
  11. Have you read their manual about radio interference? They mention about the need to have all wires through firewall as shielded wire.
  12. Long shot here; are your ignition ground wires shieled and the shield grounded at only one end?
  13. I have a iPad mini (5th generation) and it is great. The current model is 6th generation. A friend is buying a second hand 5th generation for $400 and that seems to be the normal price of refurbished items from computer repairers. Hope this helps.
  14. Best to get an apple product. Better information. Some good priced refurbished mini ipad5's available.
  15. A compass is something you can rely on; so need to take the time and do the full required swing, then you know its deviation due to the aircraft.
  16. Also have to consider owner built and access to controlled airspace as SAAA owner built can be flown into controlled airspace so why shouldn't RAA 19 reg be allowed Therefore when medical standard altered some will assess gaining SAAA membership and maintenance quals for their aircraft then be able to fly controlled air space.
  17. No lube, however can condition the o rings, especially if re using any. I know you have a kit.
  18. Nice, Another Tip, do you know about removing the butterfly screws, you will be best to make a tool to allow peening the new screws (a two person job is best. With my tool I can with care do them myself). Check fully also the butterflies are in correct best to mark a reference with a marker pen. They don't fit both ways as have a camphor on there edge (Tripple check or don't peen screws until fully checked.)
  19. I would expect that wiring in a capacitor 22,000 size would not damage anything and at worst would be a waste of about $20 and at best may improve the situation??? RF, your reply comment is appreciated, thanks mate.
  20. Did you try Bolly for the nut plates?
  21. Try Bolly props, i'm pretty sure that is the size they use for their spinner kits (spinner to backing plate). I have some 3/32 rivets I'm happy to post to you. Cheers.
  22. Or ... visit a pawnbroker and ask to use their gold scales. (They may read under weight 😊🤣so not good to check if floats exceed weight, eg 6grm may weight as 4.5g on Pawn scales🙃🙂😁.)
  23. Maybe moderator can change title to ‘Misplaced’
  24. May not help; but could, is the antenna ground plane earthed to the negative terminal of the battery?
