    Subject: canopy trim
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Larry McFarland" <larrymc@qconline.com> 601 builders, I'm in process of selecting the rubber trim on the forward tilt canopy and would ask if anyone has used the p/n 05-01300 rubber trim from Aircraft spruce for this purpose. It seems a bit short on section. What dimension is the section on the ZAC trim for the canopy and does it seem satisfactory? Thanks all, Larry C. McFarland - 601hds

    Subject: Re: Capacitor
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Jon Croke" <Jon@joncroke.com> Lowell and others The capacitor I used is a 28,000 uf 25V from www.mouser.com the part number is 539-CGS25V28000 and its on page 369 for about $13.00 I had good service with Mouser ordering on the web. The capacitor is required if you do not want problems in the future... the Rotax regulator, like any electronic regulator, puts out a RIPPLING DC voltage that will play havoc with any sensitive electronics that expects a smooth DC voltage.... (radios, GPS, etc) You can get away without one if you NEVER disconnect your battery from the circuit (it acts like a big capacitor). But for example, in my circuit, I allow my battery to be disconnected when I switch off the main switch... depends on how you've wired your circuits.. Having the cap means all works well even if the battery is disconnected!

    Subject: CG range in XL
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Chris Weber" <chrisoz@gmx.net> Hello XL-builders, I am a week away from the first flight of my modified, scratch built HD taildragger over here in Australia, and while I am elated and terrified at the prospect I know from experience that I will miss building. I finished my first Zodiac, a kit 601 UL taildragger, April last year, and in July I started the HD. So the withdrawal symtoms are just around the corner. I had a long hard look at the XL plans on the web yesterday, and I like what I see. Especially the wing profile with the flaps. And here is the question I want to pop you guys: With that profile the CG range should be wider and further back than the HD's. Could you have a look in your plans and tell me where it is from datum line (LE?), so I can compare? I'd very much appreciate that. And as far as first flight and the intense pucker-factor is concerned, once she has been inspected and registered on Wednesday I will post my 'Hail thee, Ceasar' with some last minute pictures before I take her up. Cheers, Chris Weber Zodiac 601 HD taildragger AUF 19-3891 'Brick' EA81, Amax Redrive, Razorback with rollover protection and gullwing doors, BRS 1050 in nose, wide tyres, longer undercarriage, 90 l in two LE-tanks, and last not least 715 lbs empty weight including oil and coolant.
