      'm going to guess this was the problem in the couple of in-flight breakups

      Certainly more high performance than a c-152. The faster you go, the higher the
      likelihood of flutter. No design defect, that's just the nature of the beast.

      >From what I am told, it is the fuselage that has changed...  you seem correct
      that the cross member is the wing locker support, but it appears to be in there
      with or without the wing locker.  So if the wings are not closed up, the cross
      support could be added very easily to your wing.
      
      It is the consensus of those I have talked to that the ripples and depressions
      on the leading edge are NOT designed into it, the wings just came out that way.

      I think that the new canopy etc is a real improvement on the previous version.
      Does anyone know if you can, reasonably simply, fit the 650 canopy arrangement
      to a standard XL as it just looks like a revised canopy with an additional chunk
      removed from the upper fuselage skin of the XL version?
      
      Cheers

      The recommended tubing size for aluminum fuel lines is 3/8". But metal 
      tubes are sold by outside diameter. The rubber tubing supplied by ZAC is 
      sold by inside diameter, so ZAC's tubing is 1/4" i.d., which is about the 
      same  i.d. as 3/8" aluminum tubing. The 1/4" ZAC supplied tubing should be
      
      just fine.

      I would move the Dynons ( why not a Grand Rapids ;-) ) further towards the
      center so you have more edge room on the panels.
      
      Looks good though.

      I had the chance to look over the new canopy on the 650 and it is much 
      simpler than the 601. No more cables or aluminum fairings! Much more head 
      room for taller guys. The folks in the tent say that Zenith will make a 
      retro fit canopy kit for 601 builders for a couple of grand that will 
      include the new roll bar! Seeing that I cracked my canopy, this might be the 
      way to go. All I have to do is buy a new rudder and I have a 650! Almost. My 
      hats off to the zodiac gang for making some great new changes. The new 750 
      also looks like a winner. This sure makes Oshkosh exciting this year! E-mail 
      me if you want me to send you some pictures I took today.

      Thanks for the suggestion.. Actually a couple people have suggested I move them
      further in.. LOL.. I honestly just randomly taped them to the panel to show them
      off. Depending on how things work out, I may start with the 7's and upgrade
      to a pair of 10's eventually once we release our Com radio and transponder.
      ( I won't need the panel space for radios )
      
      Why not Grand Rapids? LOL.. Because Dynons are the Best! and the price is right.
      ;) 
      
      Just in case anyone out there was wondering how my fuselage just seemed to have
      appeared.. I was the person who bought the $1500 deal in Lynnwood, WA about a
      week ago. It was right down the road from me, and the workmanship was excellent.
      It was just a little more complete than a Quickbuild.

      The canopy change is obvious. The current canopy SUCKS. It is complex and hard
      to build.
      
      As far as the rudder they probably did it for the same reason Cessna back in day.
      It looks better.
      
      Just because a company makes a change doesn't mean that there was something wrong
      with the earlier version. When the 601 was first designed the LSA rules were
      a dream. When the XL was designed the LSA rules had not been written and factory
      production of the plane was probably at best an after thought.
      
      Nobody asks why when Chevy updates their pick-up truck.

      Hi Roger,
      
      While the plane is on the ground, you can remove the top cap
      since it will not be at the stop. You can also remove the bolts
      under that wing, holding the gear in place, assuming that you have
      already disconnected the brake line. Now when you slowly raise
      the wing with a jack, the gear will come out of the gear box. 
      
      The reverse process is more difficult, since the bungees preload
      the gear, and the bungees must be stretched if the gear tube
      is to stick out a bit above the wing. There are two ways to
      do this. First, you can use longer bolts with the top retaining
      cap and gradually
      pull up the tube from the top. When you cannot turn the
      bolts any more, you lower the wing so that the weight
      of the plane holds the gear up, remove one bolt at a time
      and add washers, and repeat the process until you have pulled
      up the tube to add the retaining plate with the originial bolts.
      Another solution that makes subsequent bungee
      changes really easy, is described on the page
      
      http://utdallas.edu/~klaus/Airplane/gear_stop_by_bolt.html
      
      Happy flying,
      
      Klaus

      When I first saw the new one, Imy first thought was that homebuilders would
      love it.
      
      I'm still of two minds about it, purely from an owning standpoint: less
      baggage room, and not hidden from view.

      I came from New Mexico, where a guy was parting out his XL and then

      I 
      plan on doing mine the same way.

      Some Zenith staff member (Caleb?) at Oshkosh said the wings were 
      compatible. Double-check this with them directly after Oshkosh.

      Congratulations on your new baby.
      
      But why don't you design in an MGL Odyssey (shipping since the 
      beginning of the year) or Voyager - then you wouldn't have to wait 
      until 2009 for a large screen EFIS ;-)
      
      There were working Voyagers from the first production run in the MGL 
      and SteinAir booths (next to the Dynon demo).
      
      Just kidding - I'm sure the new Dynons will be as useful and popular as 
      the current products.
