Both "transmit" and affect things around them. The NAV cable (which is receive only) can be bundled with other stuff.

Thanks Michel Builder N145 monowheel -----Message d'origine----- De: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] De la part de Carl Pattinson Envoy: lundi 21 mars 2005 11:09 : europa-list@matronics.com Objet: Re: Europa-List: Autopilot Installation --> Europa-List message posted by: "Carl Pattinson" We fitted ours to the bottom of the control stick (attached to the bolt that goes thru the bottom yoke). The drive box sits below the pilots right thigh with a plywood cover over it. No drilling or riveting required for this mod and the servo motor is easily accessible for any adjustments.

Or how did you get the angle at this point? Will Will yes but a very basic one, a Vee on its side for the leading edge and a pad to rest on the top surface at the trailing edge. The bit in between is not so influencial in roll anyway, The plans described root template is not particularly accurate either, it doesn't show the reflex at the TE that the CAD coordinates show. I always go for the maximum possible retraction of the flaps, slightly up if possible, gives a better cruise Graham ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 07:41:59 AM PST US From: "William Daniell" Subject: RE: Europa-List: Setting wing incidence FILETIME=[7CD21EA0:01C57281] --> Europa-List message posted by: "William Daniell" Graham thanks - so the idea is more one of the incidence being the same mid- wing rather than a specific angle?

I wasn't aware of any Europas flying in Italy yet, although I knew there were 2 in build: Christian Folco's kit 338 and Franco Ghiglione's kit 341. Does anyone know which one of these is I-BETH? (Or if I-BETH is a completely different one!!) regards Rowland -- | Rowland Carson Europa Club Membership Secretary - email for info! | Europa 435 G-ROWI (750 hours building) PFA #16532 | e-mail website
