IMHO it is the most accurate method. Any disadvantages, bugs - other than possibilities of insects or ice pluging the hole? They are really small - .060" so there shouldn't be too much problems with flies etc. And I don't really like the look of the probe protruding the wing. -------- Pavel CA Zodiac XL N581PM (Reserved) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=165594#165594 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 11:44:20 AM PST US From: LarryMcFarland Subject: Zenith-List: Stratus Re-drive Belt alternate source Hi guys, Bill Morelli recently asked for a source for the Stratus Redrive Belt as performance alternative to Stratus in Washington. I just ordered a belt as a spare from Motion Industries 1920-5th Ave, Moline, IL 61265 Phone 309-797-1111 The price was near $65.00 which is reasonable for a Jason HTB Belt. Jason number printed on the belt is 880-8M-60MM. If you don't have a spare, perhaps it's time. Store it on edge in a zip lock or plastic bag. Keep it out of the sun and cold temps. Should be good for years. Good luck, Larry McFarland 601HDS at www.macsmachine.com ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:10:21 PM PST US From: "Darrell Haas" Subject: Zenith-List: rudder light What are people using for the rear light on the rudder? I don't have one yet and wonder if I should rivet the rudder before buying and installing the light or go ahead and finish the rudder and add the light later. What about the wires.

Also the fiberglass taillight fairing from Zenith is not a great fit for some taillights. Others have bent up their own from Al sheet. -- Craig -----Original Message----- From: owner-zenith-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-zenith-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Darrell Haas Sent: Friday, February 22, 2008 1:07 PM Subject: Zenith-List: rudder light What are people using for the rear light on the rudder?

Go to bottom of page to see cutout done with air powered fiberglass disc cutter. http://www.701builder.com/rudder3.htm I used the fiberglass fairing and it seems very solid when installed.

I've got a 5mm clearance between the saddle and the rudder. Getting the elevator bellcrank clearance and then the gap at the rudder is tricky. Place the saddle with crank clearance first. Then work up trim on the rudder. Then fill the bottom of the rudder with a bulkhead flanges up.

Like a drum head? Should you be able to push them in and out slightly? Oil can? What is acceptable?
