Hi Craig,
No, I hadn't considered it and after the interchange re Monowheel Flap
Operation I think I will stick with the build manual.
I will go ahead with expecting 4 cm clearance as nobody on the list
appears inclined to offer a fact or an opinion.

Subject: | cold starting tips 912S |
I have never flown much in winter before and am having difficulty
getting my 912S to start in the freezing weather. It also makes a funny
noise sometimes whilst I am trying to start it, like a ratchet.
Any tips to aid starting or ideas what the noise might be appreciated.
Happy New Year to all.

Subject: | cold starting tips 912S |
I don't know if my 914 is the same as the 912S, but I've found that a fully
charged battery is absolutely mandatory. Fully charged is 13.2 volts and
with my 914, anything less than about 12.5 volts and the ignition won't
fire. Try hooking up a battery trickle charger for a half hour or so, then
crank while the charger is connected and turned on. My cold start procedure
is to turn on the electric fuel pump for about 15 seconds, then turn off.
Hold the throttle fully against its idle stop while fully engaging the
choke. As the engine starts to fire, slowly push the choke in. Don't touch
the throttle until the engine is running smoothly. Hope this helps.

Richard,
Turn the prop through several blades, by hand (24 or so with ignition
off), then start on one mag, adding the second as soon as the engine fires.

Subject: | Monowheel tunnel dimensions? |
I just ran mine to the full flap position, and the clearance from the floor,
at the bottom
of the bend in the flap drive tube is 35mm, given the hardware is the same,
other than the
method of actuation, you should be alright if you aim for a height of 30mm
max for the lines.
the rudder cables (almost missed this in your first post) at that point are
50mm off the floor.
I have a variation on the singelton tail wheel mod, with the bell crank
mounted on the rear bulkhead
and a pushrod from there to the rudder, which lifts the cables up about 30mm
at the tail, which
given the arm would be about 5mm at the flap drive tube. If you intend to
stay with the original
rudder setup your estimate of 36mm would be safe, if a little conservative.
As far as possible I would suggest fitting AS MUCH stuff as you can,
including the fuel line
you mentioned, before you install the CM, any time spent here will pay you
back 10 fold
later, also when you run the lines up to the firewall be careful not to
encroach on the rudder cable
path. If you measure up (CM up the correct way for you to install in the
A/C) 150mm from the bottom
where it contacts the floor at the firewall, that is where the cables will
be when finally installed
and run a line from there to the rudder pulleys under the seats. Keep than
path clear for the rudder cables
and you will be ok.
If you have any further questions feel free to ask, keeping in mind I am
building a trike so some of my
mods (gascolators in tunnel, fuel selector on top of tunnel) will not be an
option for you.
happy new year
craig
PS do you know a Yep de Jong, he was a merchant seaman now lives in the US
in Mankato?
