    Subject: Welding
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Jim Hauck" <jimh474@earthlink.net> Folks; TIG, MIG and Gas Welding is an acceptable means for welding 4130 steel. TIG and MIG are preferable over gas. Gas welders with little experience either over heat the weld and burn all the carbon out of the steel or don't use enough heat to penetrate the steel. The same can be true with TIG or MIG if the individual doesn't have the experience in welding. Tig keeps the molten steel trapped in a bubble of Argon that doesn't allow hydrogen to enter the molten steel and create brittleness. Mig welding should be done with insert gas, 75% CO2 and 25% argon. Straight CO2, allows for a lot of splatter that the mix doesn't. I would never use Flux Core as a means to weld 4130 as it is easy to get flux inclusion in the weld. Also too much smoke and it is hard to see the molten puddle of steel and see what it is doing. On cages I use MIG and on small pieces and controls I use TIG. Just my preference. NEVER braze 4130 in any structure that your Butt is depending on. I rebuilt a pranged Twin Star cage a few years ago after it had been repaired by an EXPERT. The Expert brazed the repair tubes in. Jim Hauck Been learning to weld for 55 years, still learning.

    Subject: 2 strokes
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Kirk Smith" <snuffy@usol.com> 1. The pilot is descending in a shallow descent at a relatively high airspeed and throttle partially open (about half way or so). This is very dangerous setting, the mixture will lean out significantly but it does not necessarily shows up as too high EGT because the engine is not really producing much power and remember its not necessarily over the limit EGT but rather the difference between the piston and cylinder temperature . All three bad conditions are met here , combustion (piston) temperature is high, cylinder temperature is low (not much power produced) and low amount of oil entering the engine. Even an engine that is otherwise well tuned can seize this way. I recommend to do your descending at only slightly above or at idle rpm at slow airspeed somewhere between best glide and best sink. 2. Static rpm too high caused by pitch on the prop set too low. Many people seem to think that if the book for their 503 engine states max hp develops at 6500 , that's what they should set it for (down on the ground), some even believe the more rpm, the more power they get and use the max rpm number .These numbers are way too high are very likely to cause very lean mixture conditions in flight, because when the aircraft is in motion the prop unloads and the rpm will soar , then in cruise mode with the throttle retarded to keep the rpm in check very lean running condition is created, this should be indicated by high EGT but often people don't pay enough attention to these warning signs , and/or don't realize how dangerous this really is until its too late. The static rpm should be set well below the max hp rpm and the optimum depends largely on the speed range of the aircraft, generally the higher the cruise/top speed the lower the static rpm is set even if that means lower then max hp rpm in climb mode. Only on very high drag aircraft with very narrow speed range you can set the static rpm higher so it gets close to max hp in the climb mode as you will not unload the engine on such an aircraft even when you level off to cruise. 3. Another potentially bad combination is using very large (diameter / blade area) prop for a given engine, in which case the pitch must lowered considerable to bring the engine up to the acceptable RPM. In this case, even when the static rpm is rather low, the engine load will start dropping very rapidly as soon as the aircraft start gaining the speed . Only very slow aircraft can use such a combination successfully , perhaps a special purpose one like a hang glider tow plane or a powered parachute. Hope this article makes the list. Would like to hear some comments on it. Seems to make sense. Kirk Do not archive

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: Richard Pike <rwpike@charter.net> Slightly overstated, but essentially quite correct. - Except that the first scenario will show up as high EGT's, and it takes a certain combination of throttle setting and airspeed to get into the danger zone. But it does need to be monitored carefully.

I stuck a the thermister to an in/out door temperature gage to the back of the regulator and covered it with kids clay. To keep it in place I wrapped it with a rag and used some wire ties to keep the whole thing together. I flew with the indicator held to my leg with masking tape. The indicator was easy to see, and I watched it on and off during the flight. Did not see a dramatic change in the surface temperature. I did not expect much because the unit is not made with cooling fins, so I assumed they were not needed. I mounted the regulator up under the engine mount support tube, so that the leads to the alternator are very short. The strobes had no switch so they would be on any time the engine was running. The radio and the gps can be turned off, but I leave them on most of the time. Helps to detect who is coming to my home airport, and this helps me to keep out of their way. I am glad to hear that some one communicated directly with Key West about what type of regulator it is. I have tried off and on to find a number to call, but I was not successful. Jack B.

    Subject: Re: MIG vs TIG
    message of Sun, 17 Aug 2003 23:56:19 -0700 --> Kolb-List message posted by: dixieshack@webtv.net (Mike and Dixie Shackelford) MIG's are just fine, providing you use a torch to pre-heat the area to be welded AND you choose appropriate size and composition wire for the job. With a MIG as soon as the trigger is pulled, you're laying down a bead, whether its gas or flux-core used as an anti-oxidant. The use of a torch to preheat geatly reduces shock and distortion to the area in question, and reduces cold-weld at trigger pull. Heat selection and wire feed also greatly affect weld quality (penetration) and appearance. TIG welding has the advantage of preheating naturally, by design, and the option to weld VERY slowly and without filler metal if desired.....by method, taking a significantly longer time per foot of weld. The TIG torch also has to have a coolant water source. Don't forget the importance of cleanliness and comfort whatever method is chosen.

I borrowed an airless sprayer to do the painting. I guess I spent around $200 on wood for fixtures, a really flat building table, and a rack to hold the stock materials before I used them. There are things I'd recommend to a new wing builder: Put a hand hold in the wing tips. Invaluable tool when folding the wings and just plain ground handling, wingtip strobes, inspection holes (paint the covers now and use them when you finally cut open the inspection holes) in about 6 places and "x" hinges with fabric gap seals. Use the round tube lift struts and install the vinyl aerodynamic covers on them with enough support to allow you to push/pull on the lift struts for ground handling. Use an allternative method to attach the aileron ribs to the trailing edge to get rid of the "Homer Hump." You'll be glad you did. Took me 335 hours from first hole to last coat of paint and attachment of the finished wing to the fuselage and the really detailed preflight before I jumped in and roared off into the wild blue. Have to give John Williamson a big thanks for helping me during that process. He was a big help. I've got some more lessons learned if anyone wants to call me about them. Way too much to type. I'd also send a CD of the several hundred photos that I took of the jigs and building process to anyone who really needs them.... Ken Korenek N104KK 314-837-3265 Home (after 6 PM)

The pilot is descending in a shallow descent at a relatively high airspeed and throttle partially open (about half way or so). This is very dangerous setting, the mixture will lean out significantly but it does not necessarily shows up as too high EGT because the engine is not really producing much power and remember its not necessarily over the limit EGT but rather the difference between the piston and cylinder temperature . All three bad conditions are met here , combustion (piston) temperature is high, cylinder temperature is low (not much power produced) and low amount of oil entering the engine. Even an engine that is otherwise well tuned can seize this way. >I recommend to do your descending at only slightly above or at idle rpm at slow airspeed somewhere between best glide and best sink. With the Victor 1+, I typically let down from altitude, 2,000 to 3,000 feet, at speeds faster than cruise. Cruise rpm is 5,200 rpm and it gives something close to 55 mph. When I get about 8 - 10 miles out from the airport, I throttle back to 4,800 rpm and drop the nose and maintain 60 mphi. This will give a descent rate of about 200 to 300 fpm. At 5,200 rpm the throttle is 25% open, so reducing engine speed to 4,800 rpm moves it close to 20%. With the needle I am running I see little change in EGT. Coolant temperature may drop from around 200 to 190 degrees F on a hot day. CHT will vary from 150 to 175 degrees F. The fuel flow rate meter may drop a couple of tens of a gallon, so lubrication is not a problem. When load comes off an engine, it requires less lubrication. With an air cooled engine with cast iron liners, a cold cylinder and hot piston combination can be a problem. I could not do any of the above with the Rotax 447 set up to top out at 6,000 rpm. EGT's would vary too much. With it, I would slow the engine to about 3,800 rpm to prevent over cooling the engine and to keep the EGT's below 1,200 degrees F and slow the FireFly up to get a good descend rate. After I over propped the engine by increasing propeller pitch could I make speed descents as outlined above. > >2. ........ check very lean running condition is created, this should be indicated by high EGT but often people don't pay enough attention to these warning signs , and/or don't realize how dangerous this really is until its too late. If one is going to ignore EGT, CHT and/or coolant temperatures, they will experience emergency landing with greater frequency than those who manage their engine well. > > >Do not archive > Jack B.
