It is the same as the classic 4 except with a smooth cowl and is a tricycle. It has the GSC 3 blade prop. It has the 912S engine and has about 110 hours. My CHT runs about 230 and my oil temp runs about 230. I was running the waterless coolant and have switched to Prestone Dex-cool. With the Dex-cool it runs a little cooler on the CHT but the oil temp is still high. Also when the engine is at idle the oil pressure runs about 60psi, however when I am at cruise the oil pressure fluctuates between about 40psi and 60psi. Does anyone have any ideas to get the cooling under control and what could be causing the oil pressure fluctuations? -------- Allen Holland Munford, TN Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=134162#134162 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:08:26 AM PST US Subject: Kitfox-List: Lift Strut Fairiings From: "arholland" Does anyone know where I can get some of the original kitfox lift strut fairings?

I have not removed fairing from the struts but have removed lots of other parts glued on. The wood fairing are attached with 3M epoxy. It will soften with heat from a heat gun. You can use a plastic or wood scraper to remove the residual epoxy from the struts. -------- Tom Jones Classic IV, Phase one 503 Rotax, 72 inch Two blade Warp Ellensburg, WA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=134199#134199 ________________________________ Message 10 ____________________________________ Time: 07:57:57 AM PST US Subject: Kitfox-List: Re: Light-Sport Pilots license From: "Rhino" dcsfoto wrote: > the FAA has been ask and agrees that putting the switch in a location that can only be reached on the ground is ok > > David I would be interested in seeing a source for that. The sticking point is in 14 CFR Part 1.1, where it says "Light-sport aircraft means an aircraft, other than a helicopter or powered-lift that, since its original certification, has continued to meet the following:...(7) A fixed or ground-adjustable propeller if a powered aircraft other than a powered glider." It seems pretty clear that the restriction is permanent, even if an aircraft is later physically brought back into LSA compliance. However, the phrase "since its original certification" seems to indicate that this restriction may be intended for certified aircraft only. I would love to see an authoritative (FAA) source state emphatically whether or not this permanent restriction also applies to amateur built experimentals. There are many differing opinions about this on the internet, but I have yet to see anything from the FAA that states the case in no uncertain terms.

My Model IV had the insulation on the cabin side of the firewall, but I did not use the factory-supplied blanket. Instead, I used a thick, dense, fire-resistant foam that was glued to the firewall in sections between the steel tubes. I don't know if it helped with noise much because these little 'foxes are the noisiest things I've flown, but it looked really nice and I liked it. :-) Mike G.

Regarding lift strut fairings... Some of you will remember the original wood style fairings.. The install was fairly simple and very easy to work with even after the aircraft is flying. The PVC Fairings were introduced and while they offered a more true airfoil shape they also added significant weight. They are also very time consuming to install nicely as they have a 2 ridges on each side of them that should be sanded down. The aluminum cuff on the end also created some challenges. That being said we have chosen to look back and re-introduce the wood... although a little different. We have chosen Balsa as the medium to use for several reasons.. believe it or not strength is one, ease of install and sanding, and the other is weight. The 2 lift struts weighed in at almost 14 lbs difference from the PVC to the Balsa and the Balsa is stronger. Speed differences between the 2 is negligible. The new Balsa fairings maintain the correct proportions to the diameter of the tube. We have seen and had reported from 8 to 14 mph difference with either style. The Strut fairings will also include the horizontal lift strut pieces as well for the single horizontal support tubes. We have not introduced these officially yet as we need to develop the installation instructions for them.. However, they are ordered and should be in stock hopefully by months end.

I agree! We have so much to learn from looking at each other's aircraft. Your S5 looks very nice but with 357 kg empty weight, you fly it under the experimental rule, don't you? In Norway, we don't accept ultralights heavier than 275 kg empty. My model 3 is only 236 kg empty so it is much easier to fly it as an ultralight since it's much less paperwork. The only limitation is that we can't fly "on-top," but that's not a real problem. In a couple of occasions, with very low ceiling or fog patches, I had no other choice than to fly over the clouds but ... there is no one there to check my license! :-) The limitation for no-on-top is the fact that our engines are not certified and we must always fly with a possible emergency landing place in sight. Anyway, let's stay tuned to Lars-Goran homepage; there will be Kitfox fly-ins in the future.
