Has anyone got a design for attaching a drive arm to an aileron torque
tube, which is already bonded into the cockpit module?

I had my Navaid attached in front of the seat with the servo push rod driving directly
onto the Fork at the front. (CS#?)
Ernst Keppert has his Digitrak installed this way too with the servo under the
seat.
Much more accessible, especially with a retro fit.
Somewhere I have a picture of it. The mod was approved before all these PFA #s
and things.

For production aircraft, FAA requires two vents if you have one tank.
Another rule says a sole, exposed vent on the bottom of the aircraft
can be clogged by mud or snow.
It is certainly possible a builder may not experience a problem in
service, but in the U.S. at least, one should consider that upon sale
of the aircraft there's a serious liability problem in the event the
seller suffers an accident. While homebuilder liability in general is
arguably difficult to establish in most states, this is an example
where the builder/seller would make it easy. It's contrary to clear
FAA rules available as guidance and to the kit mfr's instructions. At
least install and test a 2nd vent before you sell her!
Reg,
Fred F.

Sue and Bill, excuse my ignorance but do you operate mono or tri.?
Do you have to cope with bugs in the system?
Bob vents his line internally. No vapours presumably. Bob?

Texas Howdy Fred.
Vent redundancy. Good sound practice.
I have been watching this thread with great interest. While I am a number
of chapters away from venting the tank and sight tube < Currently in Chapter
22> , the thought of installing two bug antenna atop my speedy slick fuselage
just doesn't seem appealing to me.
I have seen a number of photos for vent modifications to the filler neck and
tank. But have seen darn few photos of where and how you good people are
terminating your pipes!
How about some of you sending a few pictures to the Europa Owners site?
SteveD has put a place in the photo gallery under the heading of "Builders Photo
Gallery" for miscellaneous photos and illustrations.
Thanks!

Peter,
Any local sign/graphics shop should be able to design anything you
want. I do it here, in the states...

Hi! Mike.
I'd expected it necessary to have an anti-siphon bottle which empties
back to tank to also dissuade venting spillage. My bottle is a castrol
1/2 litre oil bottle glassed into place with the neck lower looking back
to the starboard side. Both of my vents enter the bottom of the bottle
at the highest point and any blow back spillage runs out the bottle back
to the tank vent and so back to tank.. The final air vent also in the
bottom of the bottle at the highest point then goes over the roof to
vent very close to the port flap lever slot. No fumes ever been noticed,
no bugs and no clag from the running gear. Not a drop spilt yet !
Regards
Bob Harrison. G-PTAG Europa 337 MKI/Jabiru 3300 (600 hours.)

Hi Folks,
I have successfully wired up my Icom A-200 comm and Flightcom 403MC intercom.
It all seems to work except I can't hear myself through the earphones when I
transmit. I spoke to Icom tech support and they said to turn up the sidetone
adjustment on the A-200 which I found already turned as far clockwise as it
would go.
But still no joy. Anybody have any similar experiences? Suggestions?
Regards,
