Thanks=2C I already found it & wired it. I appreciate your efforts. I also found the missing "r" in the subject (should have read 'round').

I am needing info on connection of the SD-8 aux alternator. I have a B&C 60 amp primary and one odyssey 680 batt. Z13 shows the SD-8 connection from the relay to the batt contactor I believe. can I just hook this power out relay lead direct to the batt buss for back up power only? Do i use a fusible link or in line fuse holder or breaker for this connection? I'm running dual lightspeed plasma II plus' as well. Is their a diagram showing how to properly set up this mix of components? thanks guys... -------- RV-7a completed flown 700+ hrs sold Rv-7 under construction Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=317355#317355 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 04:34:44 PM PST US From: "Les Goldner" Subject: AeroElectric-List: Electric Propulsion A few of us are Imagining quiet vibration-free powered flight. We have been following recent advances, and would love to convert a small motor glider or Ultralight to Electric propulsion. We have more time than money, so we probably won't purchase an off-the-shelf solution like the power plant offered by Yaneec in China. Initially we would use less exotic batteries, for very short proof of concept flights, and go for the much more expensive battery systems after we prove we can get a plane in the air. Do you, Robert, or anyone out there in Aeroelectric land have any experience or advice about available (off the shelf) components (i.e., motors, controllers, instrumentation, batteries, and chargers) that could be inexpensively adapted for use on a small electric aircraft? Any info would be appreciated. Les ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 08:40:23 PM PST US From: "Robert L.

When the SD-8 is powered up, the battery contactor can optionally be turned off and the SD-8 used to power only items driven from the battery bus.
