| Subject: | Singleton Tailwheel |
I have searched the Forum but cannot find the answer to this... maybe Graham Singleton
is listening and can shed some light...?
I have the Singleton tailwheel kit, bought some years ago from Graham. It came
with a new tailwheel horn and instructions to saw off the old steering arms from
the tailwheel arm.
The replacement tailwheel horn is 4 between cable attach hole centres, but I also
have a drawing (attached) for a similar horn, with 5 between centres ... confusingly
I have annotated this with an amendment of 6...???
So - is it 4" between centres as supplied; 5" as per the drawing; or 6"?
Any answers gratefully received...

Hi Bud (or anyone else who has an answer),
I was looking for info on the Dynon AoA and read your post about George Reed fitting
this AoA.
I was thinking of installing one (to display on a Skyview), but their probe has
just 2 holes - pitot and AoA - so I'd then have to find another source for the
static air - can you recall what George Reed did for static?
Thanks in advance.

Paul,
In a conversation with William Mills at Sun N Fun some years ago, he
left me w/ several bits of advice...one of which was to make a rudder
horn which provides for 4", 5", and 6" between centers...doing initial
flight tests at the 6" spread and reducing the spread as the comfort
zone expands. I made mine from .125" 4130 steel.

The Mod as sold by Graham has been replaced by Factory Mod 77. You will find documentation
for Mod 77 on the new Club web site. The dimension between the holes
on the CS34 is now 5 inches.
I believe that the 4 inch version was found to be unsatisfactory and both 5 and
6 inch versions tried. The 5 inch has become the standard.

| Subject: | Re: Pitot Static |
Paul,
I always put the standard pitot / static on my aircraft. It hooks to
the normal A/S and Altimeter. The Dynon probe is added to the other
wing normally and feeds the Dynon pitot/aoa. I make a 5 inch access
hole and build in a flange then mount the probe and its Gretz mount to
the wing about 10 inches back from the leading edge as that is what
Dynon recommends I believe for its AOA function. Should icing be a
consideration, I mount a cockpit static valve to use the cockpit air
which is accurate to about 2 knots and 50 feet at all speeds and
altitudes to 10,000 ft.
Do not mount the Dynon where the standard pitot is.
Regards,
Bud

Hi Bud (or anyone else who has an answer),
I read your post while looking for info on the Dynon AoA. I was
thinking of installing this AoA, but their probe has just 2 holes -

Thanks in advance.
