    Subject: Re: More BRS Questions
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Cooley" <johnc@datasync.com> Morning Terry/Gang, I wanted my handle to be easy to get to and located in a place easy to find if I was in a panic. It is mounted between the throttle lever and the front corner of seat so it is right by my left leg while I'm seated. I mounted it to the small diagonal brace that angles down toward the seat base with a "U" shaped clamp. I didn't want it sticking way up in the air on the horizontal tubing that makes the top of the side panel. Another plus is that it is right next to the kill switch. It is recommended that you kill the engine before deployment of the chute. I will send you a picture off list. Later, John Cooley > --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Terry Davis" <davistcs@eoni.com> > > Thanks for all the responses on the overheating question. So much for my memory (or lack thereof). Guess it doesn't happen with a 503. The question now is where to put "the handle". I had thought to mount it over my left shoulder, (short and out of the way) but after Tim mentioned putting it by the throttle I thought that sounded alot more panic proof. How tight can the housing be bent? Seems like if it had a tight curve it would be harder to pull, but I guess if you had to pull it you would probably really give it a yank and never notice the effort. Any ideas would be welcome.

I was actually hoping to keep it below 450, but my full enclosure, ELT, and the heavy battery ruined that effort. Remember, I do not have a ballistic chute, so that gives me a little weight advantage to begin with. I'll probably add one down the road someday. > Are you sure you didn't leave something out?

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: <rowedl@highstream.net> Kolbers, Can anyone tell me the accepted procedure for determining the balance point of the ailerons on a Mk-3? Seems like the aileron tie rods should be disconnected while determining the balance point. I probably should have checked the archives on this, but I gotta leave the house right now. See Ya, Denny

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Cooley" <johnc@datasync.com> Morning Denny, The aileron torque tubes should be disconnected while balancing the ailerons. You then slide the weighted rods in or out until the aileron is balanced or inline with the wing. Don't remember or know if it matters, but I think I would raise the tail so that the wing is at the angle of attack that it would be in for normal flying to do the balancing.

    Subject: Re: 4-stroke engine for Firestar
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Cooley" <johnc@datasync.com> Hi Thom, Welcome to the Kolb list. Great bunch of folks are on this list. Kolb has always recommended that the 52 hp Rotax 503 was the biggest engine to put on the Firestar. I don't recall anyone on this list that has a four stroke on a Firestar. Not sure what kind of four stokes are available that would be within the 503 weight range. The HKS 60 hp four stroke would be a nice engine to have from what I have seen. They are about equal to the 503 performance wise. I don't know what it weights, but I'm sure it's several pounds heavier than a Rotax 503. Maybe someone else on the list can come through for you.

    Subject: Re: 4-stroke engine for Firestar
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "dama" <dama@mindspring.com> I belive that they are all a bit heavy. And, with the FS being a tail heavy design (at least for the lighter pilots), this is an issue. The HKS is adverised at 98 lbs which may be within 10lbs of a 503 but I am not sure, Good luck with your research.

    Subject: Mark-3/912 Progress report
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "H MITCHELL" <mitchmnd@msn.com> Since good 'ole Geo38 seems to be supporting the list almost single handed it's about time some of the rest of us pitch in so here goes.... My FireFly is such a joy to fly and the weather has been so great that it's hard to settle down and finish my Mk 3 but now I'm back on that track. The final design of my wing gap for the Mk-3 has had me stalled for way too long. The main problem is that the original design does not lend itself to a built-in BRS softpack. The first challenge was to install the platform where the chute will sit. Mine is mounted at the middle of the forward side of the 1 x 1 cross-tube and supported by an aluminum brace attached to the flap handle bracket. The rocket launch tube is mounted on the back side of the cross-tube adjacent to the chute. Keeping the chute close to the launch tube simplifies the design of the trap door used to allow the rocket, canopy and static line to freely exit the airframe. This arrangement uses up most of the space occupied by the framework of the original design and requires an alternative support structure. My plan is to use a permanent gap seal which stays in place when the wings are folded. One of the list contributors has a great design, with photos, on his home site. I left my printed copy at the hangar but will provide his name if anyone is interested. If I could continue to resist the temptation to fly my FireFly instead of working on the Mk-3 it could be done in a few days. What a great problem to have ;) More Later, Duane the plane, Tallahassee, FL, FireFly SN 007, 147 Hrs, Mk-3/912 in the works.

I am gonna machine a nice round nose on em, and maybe drill a backside center hole to take a little weight out, that should allow me to use pop rivets instead of my 8/32 bolts to attach the weights.
