<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Engine:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The new ACE-Perfromance 428<\/span><\/p>\n but I may end up going with this battery<\/p>\n Would like to add the Rief Preheat system for obvious reasons\u00a0and of course the ELT 406<\/p>\n Prop choices:<\/strong><\/p>\n It seems that a fixed pitch is the way to go for lightweight however a ground adjustable would also be good. \u00a0Throwing in a constant speed only adds weight but realistically this is what I will end up with. Either the Catto or Whirlwind for certain. Maybe a Pawnee prop but we will see what provides the best cooling and performance.<\/p>\n Fabric:<\/strong><\/p>\n I was leaning toward the Oratex but really thinking more along the lines now of the Super Flight 7.<\/p>\n Keeping paint very basic, light coat with basic Cub Design – traditional (White and Black maybe)<\/span><\/p>\n Avionics:<\/strong><\/p>\n Keeping the mission in mind for light weight…I like what Dynon has to offer as do I like the Aerotronics. That Garmin G3x in pretty nice and light doing most everything for you. Here are a couple ideas.<\/p>\n Becker Com and Transponder, PM Engineering 1200 intercom are some other ideas<\/p>\n Extras:<\/strong><\/p>\n AMSAFE lap and shoulder harness<\/p>\n Aveo ultra Galactica led position strobe, landing and taxi lights<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Landing Gear:<\/strong><\/p>\n Still not certain about the TK 1 Shock system but like the looks of it and it seems like it the way going forward. The Mackey landing gear it also very good with the Univar HD lift struts and Jury struts.\u00a0 Lots of options as you can see here. I know I do want to keep this bird as light a possible. I like the idea of a manual flap handle. Electric trim on the yoke? That adds about a pound but a pound is a pound. Ted Waltman has a great mod for the stick base. Check this out. No grease and simple. It a real responsive feel. Keep checking back as this will continue to grow. I can hardly wait to get this bird in the air…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This will serve as a reference thread for myself and others that my need information and where to gather.
