Nice video. Great idea cutting in a view of the plane, made it very
professional. I went to Galveston once. Drove from Houston to get some oil
for the B17 the Confederate Air Force was flying the next weekend. Also met
the guy who did a ONE WHEEL touch down with the B17 to simulate the landing
by a damaged B17 during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Nice guy. His
exhibition was spectacular.He lowered one wheel only and flew all the way
down a very long runway with the wheel on the ground holding the plane
level. Cheers. Pat

Hi All,
I thought I would try a voice over video again just to see what happens.
Just a short little flight.
Thanks,

Adam Savage went up in a U-2.>> Chatted to the crew of a U2 many years ago
while they were being kitted out for a flight. As complicated as going to
the moon I remember. They said she was a pig to fly and only skated along
over about a 15 mph cruise range when she was at max height.. Very accurate
flying called for. Fell out of the sky if the speed was allowed to drop. A
long time ago. Pat

Nicely done! I notice that you have a yaw string. I was watching a
Mythbusters episode a couple of weeks ago. Adam Savage went up in a U-2.
It also had a yaw string! All that money, and over 100 years of
development, and a piece of yarn works best.

Noticed that the jumper wire size is 10 awg(Amazon pic) ...which is
pretty small... Guessing that a short set of jumper cables and a 10 amp
hour sealed battery would do as well ..? Probably not as
convenient...however.. Herb
wondering if the batteries are Lithium Ion?

Subject: | Photos of your Firestar instrument panel..... |
Hello All,
I enjoyed the video that Allen posted, and got a few glimpses of his instrument
panel. I would be very appeachitive if anyone who has a Firestar size panel would
post a picture of their panel. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure
out a layout to accommodate everything I want to mount on my panel.
Thanks for your help,

Here is a photo of the panel in my just completed Earthstar eGull (electric
powered). Not a Firestar, but might still offer some ideas.
The 8.4" Samsung tablet in the center will normally show a moving map
sectional (I use Avare). When hooked up to bus power (via a simple 12V-5V
adapter) it can run at full brightness, which is about as good as it gets
on tablets.
On the right is a GRT Mini-X EFIS with all the options- amazing product,
highly recommended. I replicated the USB on the back in the panel, for
easier software updates and downloading flight stats to a memory stick.
Under the EFIS is a "Cycle Analyst" to display battery data, etc - not
something you would use. It provides a handy finger rest for operating the
EFIS buttons in turbulence.
On the left I have a Flightline FL-760 radio. Since my plane has an
electric motor, I thought I might get away with a ceiling speaker and
gooseneck mic (and PTT on the stick), but the feedback between the mic and
speaker made me reconsider. I am now installing jacks for a headset.

It's just a thought, but, have you considered fabricating a small hood for
the tablet? Might make it a bit easier to see=8B.

It is hard to tell from the photo, but the glare shield does extend about
3" back over the panel.
Even at full brightness, the tablet cannot touch the brightness of the GRT
EFIS next to it. I don't know of any other tablet or phone that would -
probably due to the need to conserve battery. And even the best tablets
cannot touch the GPS and accelerometers in a dedicated aviation instrument,
not to speak of pitot, static and OAT input which allows the EFIS to
provide density altitude and wind vectors. But as a moving map / sectional,
the tablet is well worth the panel space.

Here is my panel. There is only one problem with it and that is with the
compass, there is no where on the panel that I can get it far enough away
from steel to allow it to be any where near correct.

Subject: | Elevator Stops on Mark III |
I am nearing completion of my Mk3 rebuild. I would like information on how to install
limit stops on the elevator up and elevator down positions. I don't see
this in the manual that came with my used Mark3. See attachments. A down stop
is installed but needs modification; however I see no up stops at all. An up
stop is needed because the controls stick hits the seat. Your input, especially
photos, are appreciated.
Thanks,
Dee
