Subject: | Pitot tube installation |
Pieters: I hope I'm not bringing up a worn out subject, but I've run a couple
of searches with no results. Where do most builders mount the pitot tube on
an Aircamper? I am aware of the vane type airspeed indicator and I plan to
incorporate one (mainly for nostalgic purposes), but I'm also installing a nicely
rebuilt conventional, modern airspeed indicator. If left to my own devices, I
would mount it on the leading edge of the left wing, but I wonder about the
subtleties that are not obvious. Any comments?...Carl Vought

Subject: | Brake Disc Assembly |
Dear List,
I bought Michael Cuy's video and saw that Michael used go-cart brakes on his
Piet. I've found a web site Mowerzone@smallengines.CC - which has a Disc Brake
Assembly that looks like it might work. But I'm not sure if it's big enough.
The description says it's for use on riding lawn mowers, mini-bikes and snowmobiles.
It costs less than $13.00 /brake. It looks right to me, but before
I order I would like to hear from someone who may have some experience with
this.
Thanks - Dave Paulsen in Missouri

Dave,
I used the drum brakes. 5" (I think) They are plenty to do runup and hold on the
taxiway. Always heard horror stories of nose over.
Got mine here,,,

Subject: | The second easiest rib question |
Would someone please confirm my counting? I count 30 total ribs needed for
the 3 piece wing, including 6 end ribs with the extra braces.
Thanks

Subject: | dihedral - how much? |
--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "DJ Vegh" <djv@imagedv.com>
For those of you with 3 piece wings.... what dihedral angle are you
running? The GN-1 plans give no indication of how much. I'm going to make
my lift struts next Wednesday and need to determine dihedral before then.

Is anyone running any washout in their wings? If so how much?

Carl,
Mount it on your jury strut, about 6" below the wing. I think you will get the
most accuracy in this location.
