Simon,
The Rotax drip trays available from Rotax (at a cost!) do perform 2 tasks.
One is to act to prevent fuel from dripping onto the exhaust directly
beneath the carburettor!! and two to act as a heat shield from the exhaust
beneath. Due to installing the Sky Drive Carb Heat system I had to modify
the drip trays to fit under the carburettor sufficiently.
Cheers,
Tim

I did using some fairly light gauge Aluminium. Paddy Clarke (Scholar and
Gentleman!) lent me a Cardboard Template as pattern including bending lines.
If you would like a scanned paper copy let me know.

Hi Bob,
From what i've seen it's Pclips being used and drilled for self tapers. I
have no idea if those are supplied with the kit. Most of the folks have
broken drills on those holes, so be warned. Slow speed and centrered all
the time is the advice.

We just used studs (similar to Click Bond) glued on the outside of the arm
with Araldite. Little afraid to drill through the arm.

--> Europa-List message posted by: "Colin John Howard Richardson" <cjh.richardson@virgin.net>
Hi all,
I have to move a tri-gear fuselage on a flat trailer. At the moment I cannot get
to the aircraft to measure exactly the dimension from the outside of the main
gear tyre to the outside of the opposite main gear tyre. This will dictate what
width of trailer I will need to transport the fuselage.
Could anyone please measure this dimension on a trigear and let me know, on list
or off list at cjh.richardson@virgin .net
Many thanks

Hi! Colin
Mine without main tank fuel on board is 79" over the spats. However
beware the fact that when you pull the a/c backwards the axle toe out
spreads the width. And of course the greater the load the wider it sits.
