    We installed a Becker Transponder for the same reason as you - we had minimal panel space and depth behind panel available. It was expensive. However, from the first day, it has worked flawlessly, and is very easy to operate. We have steam gauges, not a Dynon, to go with it, however.

    Gig, I just wanted to make sure the cowl was securely fastened so it doesn't go anywhere. Just kidding, what you see is an optical illusion. The clecos you see are the four clecos that hold the bottom cowl cowl piece to the fiberglass nosebowl and the rest of the clecos that are along the bottom hinge line. I posted a better pic below.

    Subject: A couple questions about the 650 or XL
    From: "fresnor" <fresnor@yahoo.com>
    Dear community, I doing my due diligence and research before my first homebuilt purchase, and a Zodiac is on the very top of my list. I appreciate all the knowledge you all have given me through this forum. I have a couple questions if anyone knows the answer... 1) Do you know if the 650 will have a quickbuild kit anytime soon? If not, would it be better to go with the XL and 650 updates? or maybe just slow build 650? 2) From what I have read, this is a very sensitive subject, but I am naive and this concerns me very much; what is the current status of the wing problems and independent researcher I have seen mentioned on this forum? Maybe if somebody can elaborate on whats happening with that. I have searched many times on this site trying to learn what I can, but it is sporadic and tough to put all together. 3) Would these structural issues translate to the 650? Thank you all for the help, I look forward to working with you all as I begin my project and look forward to contributing.
