Hi Folks,
I'm still considering a panel refurb - out with the pneumatic system and
in with an EFIS - I really like the Dynon Skyview.
Anyone installed autopilot servos? I think I've seen some roll servos
installed under the seat but I've not seen pitch servo installation.
Does anyone have any drawings/photos?

One of the best altitude hold (dual axis) autopilots is the Trio Pilot Pro.
Excellent full details are on the Trio web site.
I was in correspondence with Paul Mitchell, the UK agent for Trio last
December and he was in touch with Andy Draper of the UK Light Aircraft
Association which were in the process of giving it approval for the Europa.
The relevant correspondence copied to me was:

Hi Paul,
Europa are on the verge of launching Mod 76 which covers the altitude hold
aspect (awaiting flight test results) and the wing leveller part is covered
by the recently introduced Mod 75. Mod 75 effectively replaces SM10507
which has been around for a while now. They've opted for in-house mods to
cover the rest of the world.
Mods 75 and 76 will be treated as Facory Options now, but both will require
inspection checks and flight test autorised by LAA Engineering issued PFRC
(as laid down in the mod leaflets).

What is the currant position in fitting a PP into a Europa.Is it a standard

Any info gratefully received.

Note the reference to *in-house mods for the rest of the world*.
You will find it is a very neat and light weight unit at modest cost
compared to the competition. However, I do not speak from experience. I
plan to purchase it probably later this year after it has been approved by
the LAA.

Are you a Europa Club Member? Ian Rickard has been putting the final
touches to a standard Altitude Hold Mod. As you suggested, the pitch servo
is mounted under the seat. I have one similarly mounted under the left hand
seat, driven by my Trio Alt Hold.

Hi Martin
Ian Richard, the Mods rep on the Europa Club has done full drawings of both
roll and pitch servo installations and has been trying to get them issued as
standard factory mods. I am sure if you rejoined the Europa Club he would
be delighted to send you some drawings :-)

Have a look at Mod 75 (roll Autopilot) and Mod 76 (Altitude hold). These
are now up on the Europa Web site.
At the moment they do not cover the Dynon but the servos are about the same
size. As I wrote them, if you have any further questions let me know.

""This combination of hardware provides for physical
security of the firewall penetration and a good deal
of protection for the grommet against fuel-fed fire.
The final touch is addition of the fire-putty fillet
around the wire and to cover about half the surface
area of the grommet on the engine side. This
adds relative gas-tightness for CO and protection
of the exposed insulation/grommet from fire.""
Bob ,
I would be delighted to read your appreciation
of the relative danger of fuel-fed vs. oil-fed engine
fires.
While I understand the danger of inflamed fuel,
I anticipate cutting off the fuel delivery. I know it cuts
the engine but perhaps a forced landing is better than
crispy critters.
Oil on the other hand is difficult to stop, unless
you stop the engine, which is slow and leads to the
same fate basically. It also may be modified by later
engine re-start. What have I missed?
What say you?

Well, I'll listen in on both email addresses, but I intent to use the
new privatepilots address for flying related conversations, and use the
other one for my Dutch business. ;-) I don't really care which one you
use, but the privatepilots address may be easier to remember than the
Dutch address which most likely has no comprehensible meaning for you.

Hi Will
"So shoot bolts first and then hinges?"
I
didn't install shoot bolt guides, just made holes in fuse so shoot bolts
can lock door in place. Yes shoot bolt holes before hinges allows easy
registritration whenfitting of door the gazillion times you need to
take on and off. BTW using tape as a pattern allows you to trim door very
close first shot. Pics on link I sent you.

Triboelectric pinholes (static discharges) happen in thin teflon,
which is why the aerospace grade of Aeroquip 666 (the premiere
fuel hose IMHO) has an embedded carbon strip through the length
of the teflon.
I have not heard of triboelectric problems with nylon, doesn't mean
it doesn't exist.

Did not do any checking - just accepted a friend builder's suggestion.
Very easy to fit and very easy to take out again. Fittings have a lock
ring - push pipe in and it grabs, push on the ring and you can withdraw it.

Ira...How thin is "thin teflon"?
Is automotive EFI R9 hose lined w/ "thin" teflon, or something thicker
to deal w/ the issue you describe?
If the R9 hose w/ the blue teflon liner IS subject to triboelectric
pinholes, why doesn't it concern the auto manufacturers?

Here is a bit more info:

That would seem to indicate that the potential for triboelectric
pinholes is a consequence of the steel braid surface of the hose.
I have used automotive R9 EFI hose (w/ the blue teflon liner)...(at
$6/7 dollars/foot, it's not exactly "cheap")...I have planned on using
steel braid on only those hoses which are forward of the firewall...if
I carry out that plan, it sounds like all will be well if I use the
Mil Spec. MIL-H-25579E hose forward of the firewall or where ever
steel braid is used.
I would be grateful for any comments anyone?

Thanks for all the replies - most helpful.
I just need to know the prices for the Mods now. I see I would need a
new pitch pivot tube. Couldn't just find a local welder to put on the
plates?

Is there not a risk of static-induced pinholes with fuel in nylon? Or
is that Teflon? Or.....

I have fitted 1/4" nylon pipe as return from motor to the main
tank and as water drains.
For general interest, would users please just flick this message
