Deems sounds the same as the temp probe one wire to probe and one wire to
ground.

I use Alex's gust lock and like it very much.
http://www.rvtraining.com/html/gust_lock.html
It is real easy to install and as long as you put it on the pilot's side
you couldn't fail to disconnect prior to takeoff. I do not use the wrap
around the control stick just but I do tie down the control stick with
the seat belt.

I put a line on one of the screws that hold the sender into the tank. I was
not sure that the proseal would conduct as well as it should through the
joint of sender and tank. If you have a good ground at the sender, then you
can connect the other line near by to airframe ground. That has worked well
on mine.

I'm electron challenged, and so the simplest things elude me at times.
My question is how to wire the resistance fuel senders. I have 2 wires
coming from my EIU for each tank. In the center of the fuel sender is a
screw for a terminal. I assume this is for the sending / signal line,
there are no other provisions on the sender for additional terminals, is
it assumed that the unit is grounded through the airframe? In which case
the 'other' / ground wire/s from the EIU can be terminated at a
ground/block or on the airframe? If not, where do it connect the other
wire/s from the EIU?

Easy to make. Take two pieces if 1"x 1' x1/8" aluminum angle 16 " long. Put
a long bolt (8") through the center of the each angle and secure through
both pieces with a wing nut ( so no tools are required to install). Paint it
day-glow something that clashes with your paint scheme. Pad the ends of the
angle that will be against the fuselage with foam and place bolt through the
lower hinge opening to install. Has worked great for a Glastar for several
years and just began using on the 10.

Hi All,
While doing my walk around today I noticed the rudder stop on the right side
had completely sheared off the 3 rivets that hold the stop in place and it
had fallen into the rudder's lower fairing.
I keep my plane in the hangar so had not thought I needed a gust lock but
after some investigation I'm told "yeah, we needed to get a plane out of the
back so we had to pull all the planes out last week and I guess it was
pretty windy that day". If was damaged the day I suspect it was the wind
was gusting to about 45 MPH. Fortunately no major damage and a couple
hours to repair but if it would had continued to get banged around it
certainly could have been serious.
So I'm looking for opinions on gust locks, a quick Google found this one
http://www.rvtraining.com/html/gust_lock.html, any other options or opinions
anyone wishes to share?

Fellow builders,
We are pleased to announce another new product. Universal
Switch- Airspeed Kit. (USW-1)
At Sun-n-Fun many folks got to see our Safety-Trim and
Intelligent Flap Controller system in action. This included a working
demonstration of our products. Aside from the interest generated in
these products we had a lot of inquires regarding the use of our
Airspeed Switch (ASW-1) for the control of other electrical loads in the
airplane. Well this new product addresses that need. USW-1 allows
for the control of electrical loads up to 10 amps based on aircraft
speed. This product provides a "squat switch" like capability and may
be used to enable/disable a transponder.
For all the details please visit our web site.
www.tcwtech.com
Thank you,
Bob Newman
