    Subject: Verner Throttle.
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Johann" <johann@gi.is> Jack, Thank you for your advice and picture. Your work is very professional and looks like you will be flying this summer or autumn. My project is demanding a lot of money these days for the final touches around the instrument panel and engine. May take some time to gather the money, but it will fly one of these days. Best wishes, Johann G. Icelnad. -----Original Message----- From: owner-zenith-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-zenith-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Jack Russell Subject: Re: Zenith-List: Verner Throttle. --> Zenith-List message posted by: Jack Russell <clojan@sbcglobal.net> Johann: I used the throttles from aircraft spruce and I like the way they turned out. See pic. I started with a 2" long torque tube on the firewall mounted right in the center but found that the short S bend in the cable caused it to operate very stiff. I then made the long tube you see in the picture and ran the cables straight and they work well. I also took out the plastic friction nut on the passenger so only the pilot side will tighten.

    Subject: Rotax 912ULS /air box Skyshop
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "SKYSHOP.ORG" <duba@gate.net> Just some information, I thought some of you will be interested in. The discussion about Rotax air box in 701 needs to be clarified. Unfortunately the Rotax air box doesn't fit in the 701 cowling as supplied by Zenith or Czech Aircraft Works firewall forward package. We are currently manufacturing our new 701 firewall forward package that includes modified Rotax air boxes. This package has completely redesigned cowling which is much more streamline than the old style with integrated radiator and oil cooler. This package also has a big advantage of a side mount NACA air scoop and K&N air filter integrated into the fiberglass cowling. By supplying RAM air to the scoop and directly feeding cold air to the reworked Rotax air box, we are picking up substantial performance. Some of the performance figures for this package on wheels are 105mph cruise and on new style 1200 floats 100mph cruise. These firewall forward packages are the same packages that we use on our production line at Czech Aircraft Works. This assures the customer that every last nut and bolt will be supplied and the kit will be complete http://www.skyshops.org/FIREWALLFOW.htm Danny Pss: New electric flap for CH701. We now have retrofitable electric flap kit for CH701. This includes ACME screw actuator and Ray Allen electric flap position indicator supplied with complete instructions. Some of our customers have suggested that we come up with easier deployment method. This system not only gives you ease of deployment but also infinite amount of flap positions !! -----Original Message----- From: owner-zenith-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-zenith-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Mark Sherman Subject: Zenith-List: Rotax 912ULS instalation. --> Zenith-List message posted by: Mark Sherman <msherman95632@yahoo.com> I'm at the point of ordering the engine for my 701 from Zenith. I have a friend building a 701 about 25 miles away and we are about at the same place in the building process. He is just installing the 912ULS and found that the air cleaners from Zenith do not fit the air box supplied by Rotax and no parts to hook up the carb heat to the air box. In a call to Zenith he was told that most people leave the air box off and just put the air cleaners directly on the carbs. Rotax is firm that if you want a true 100hp engine that you use the air box. I was amazed that Zenith doesn't supply the parts for the cold air intake or for carb heat. And no installation help either. (well, not that surprised). Has anyone who has installed the 100hp Rotax taken pictures of the installation of the air box or has everyone just put the air cleaners on the carbs and called it good enough? He has had his engine about three years now, but Zenith said they don't supply it any different now than then. Any help or pictures would be greatly appreciated. Mark S.

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Richard Broom" <twobrooms@outdrs.net> Keith; I am neither a builder nor a flier just a wannabe. I flew the 601 factory demonstrator several years ago before the XL came out. I would like very much to get a look at a 601XL and possibly a ride if one is going to be there. I want to build but time, money and workshop haven't all come together at the same time yet.

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Keith Ashcraft <keith.ashcraft@itt.com> Ok Danny, You have my attention. I am (assuming) that you are talking about a 912S, with a minimum of flaring on wheels and struts. Tell us a little more about the setup. How does this setup perform at elevation (10,000') the majority of where I will be flying. I guess I would also like to know how other pilot's CH701/engines perform at this type of elevation (so you guys can chime in here if you want). I guess I have had my mind set to an 80-85mph cruise, but if I can get STOL performance with a higher cruise speed (plus low fuel flow) then you have my attention. By the way, what is the fuel flow for this setup you have described?
