I started building CH601 Zodiac, and I am thinking about putting mazda
wankel in it.
The main point is - how high the fuel consumption is (per hour)
The subaru conversions seems to be more reliable in words of fuel economy,
and parts availability, but are heavier and bigger.
Does anyone here has some experience with rotaries?
Cheers

Grant remember that those belts actually shrink when they warm up, then
they squeal. I have seen many belts too tight.

The belt actually doesn't shrink, the sprockets grow when they get hot..

Do any 801 builders have a pattern for the front strut upper fairing? If so
I could use a copy.

Wow - it has been a memorable 2 years, I started the www.ch701.com and www.ch601.org website as a place to store pictures and links to other builders. At the time I was just interested in the 701.com website because I was building one and was sure I could get someone to take over the 601.org website for that type of plane. After offering it on the list, David Barth said he would give it a try, he added a few pictures of planes and then asked his building buddy if he wanted to help out. Along came Mark Townsend! Boy, did things change, the www.ch601.org website started to grow in leaps and bounds with content from all over the world and from the personal experience of both Mark and David, both of which have been long time members of this list. Then I started getting busy with www.HomebuiltHELP.com and Mark took over the majority of work on www.ch701.com . Once again leaps and bounds of information poured in from all types of builders to make 701.com a leading site in education for any and all 701 builders.
Now today I have just seen the announcement that Zenith Aircraft company has expanded
it's representation in Canada to a company known as Can-Zac Aviation. I
am proud to announce that Can-Zac Aviation is owned by Mark Townsend and David
Barth !
Zenith builders and people in Canada couldn't have found a better two guys to help
them out, Mark and David , CONGRATULATIONS! Many have learned from you two
over the years and now it looks as if many will continue to learn for years
to come!!!
For more information you can see the announcement on the Zenith site at http://www.zenithair.com/news/index.html
Good Luck Guys
Jon

Hello all, I finished up the fuel tank. I used the balloon method and everything
worked well. (Robert S, I even drew a smile face) Before I put the sender
in I spent quite a bit of time getting out the little bits of Al from cutting
the sender hole. I ended up putting a piece of masking tape partially over
the sender end and blowing compressed air with an extension in the filler hole.
This moved particles around and out the sender hole. It took a while, 45
min, till the tape came up clean. I thought it was clean but now I know it is.
It took a while but worked well.
Cheers

--> Zenith-List message posted by: "The Keeners" <kim.forest@surewest.net>
Dear 601XL Builders:
If you weren't aware of this already, do NOT rivet your horizontal stab skin to
the skeleton at each end of the spars!!! Leave the last rivet hole open until
you install the end ribs. I learned the hard way and had to drill out four
(yes 4) A4 rivets in order to install the end ribs on the horizontal stab. If
the instruction manual mentioned this, I failed to notice. Not a big deal, just
a pain in the a$$!!!!
Happy Building!!!

Somewhere in the Zodiac photo gallery
http://www.zenithair.com/zodiac/6-photo77.html there is one. They have
hundreds of pictures so it may take awhile to find it. I think it's a
European aircraft. You might also search the archives
discussion some time back.
