    Subject: Taildragger conversion battery position.
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Paul Wilson" <paul@wilsonnet.flyer.co.uk> Our syndicate is currently carrying out the taildragger conversion using the Swiss carbon fibre type undercarriage leg. The aircraft is a classic, with a 912S with the XS firewall forward kit and upgraded gross weight mod. I wondered where other builders of this type had put their battery for best c of g position, i.e. under the cowls , or under the extended baggage bay area. Also, has anyone souced ready made leg fairings and spats for this conversion, from an existing aircraft which may fit with slight alterations ? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks, Paul.

    Subject: Round or Square tips on warp drive blades?
    My tips are rounded because I nicked one of then in moving the airplane around on the ground. I radiused the edge and made all the rest look the same as the affected tip. Many people have done this. Steve A143 N40sh Flying off the 40 hrs Steve Hagar hagargs@earthlink.net ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Iddon Sent: 10/6/2006 1:20:50 AM Subject: Europa-List: Round or Square tips on warp drive blades? I have an Airmaster with warp drive blades. I note that some people have rounded off the corners on the tips of their warp drive blades. Is this just for cosmetic / safety reasons or is there any increase in performance by doing this? Richard Iddon G-RIXS -- 04/10/2006

These were shiny (I assume stainless steel), chrome-like in appearance with very thin edges - almost sharp. The ones I got from Aircraft Spruce were stainless steel but kind of dull gray steel in appearance with thick edges, maybe 10-20 thou. I use them for my cowl retention and noticed one missing (must have forgotten to tighten it). Does anyone recommend a source? Regards, Martin Tuck Europa N152MT Wichita, Kansas
