--> Kolb-List message posted by: Gherkins Tim-rp3420 <rp3420@motorola.com>
Kolbers,
I happened upon a set of dual carb heaters designed to work with bing 54 carb for
a Rotax two stroke. Brand new, never mounted with original paperwork. I figured
with the cold season coming up on us soon someone could use them. I live
in the middle of the Sonoran desert and don't think I'll ever need them here
in the southwest. They go for 279.00 in the Aircraft Spruce catalog. I'll
let them go for 220.00. Save yourself some money, I'll even throw in 2-day priority
shipping right to your doorstep.
Interested? reply to me off the list at: rp3420@email.sps.mot.com
Thanks,
Tim Gherkins

Yes, I've heard from John H.--he's off again, but hauling his house with
him. Maybe that's because he usually carries everything but the kitchen
sink in his plane--and now he's got the sink!

If, and I emphasize IF, the new gear legs could be pushed all the way
up to the top of the cage sleeves, resulting in the same effective
length sticking out as before, you would have a stronger setup and no
downsides except for the weight of the extra 4.5". (The location taper
would need to be the same too.)
Those who have gone to spring steel tube gear legs have purposefully
changed to legs shoved all the way up. If there is a ground accident
that tears out the legs, the tendency with normal legs that end half
way up the sleeves is to slightly bend and crease the sleeves where the
legs end inside.

Hi Kolbers,
That Kolb flying over Venice Beach, Florida could have been one I
previously owned and sold to Steve Jones of Venice. It was a 1986 Kolb
Twinstar with a Rotax 503 SCSI. It had yellow wings and a dark green
fairing. It was a great little flyer, but it was time for me to move on
since I didn't have enough time for it. He keeps it at the Venice
airport.

--> Kolb-List message posted by: kuffel <kuffel@cyberport.net>
Ted,
<<two micro switches to prevent overrun at both ends of the spectrim.
does anyone happen to have any idea as to how to wire this up to a
rocker type switch or a two way toggle switch>>
You will find this standard circuit in one of the Bingelis books as well
as other aviation electronic books. Draw up a diagram from the
following verbal description and you will get the idea.
You need:
circuit breaker or fuse
a momentary (spring loaded) double pole double throw center off switch
two normally closed micro-switches
4 wire cable from the control switch to the motor/limit switches area
(assuming a typical mechanical setup)
Call the 4 contacts of the dpdt switch 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 where contacts 1 &
2 are the output of pole 1 and contacts 3 & 4 are the output of pole 2.
Call the two contacts of the DC motor A & B.
Run battery plus through a fuse/circuit breaker to pole 1 input of the
control switch (output contacts 1 & 2)
Run ground to pole 2 input of the control switch (output contacts 3 & 4)
Wire from contact 1 to input of limit switch
Wire from output of limit switch to A
Wire from contact 2 to input of other limit switch
Wire from output of other limit switch to B
Wire from contact 3 to B
Wire from contact 4 to A
When the control switch energizes contacts 1 and 3 then power from 1
goes through the limit switch to A, through the motor to B and back to 3
until the limit switch opens.
When the control switch energizes contacts 2 and 4 then power from 2
goes through the other limit switch to B, through the motor in the
opposite direction to A and back to 4 until the other limit switch
opens.
Hope this is clear enough.
