Subject: Zenith-List: Battery location

Hi List -


Anyone out there who might be building a 601XL or 650 using a Lycoming 0235
engine.Where are you putting your battery and what kind are you using?  I
know this engine is heavier than a lot of other solutions so I am concerned
about the forward C/G and have no idea how to figure that BEFORE the
airplane is complete.


Any help or advice is certainly appreciated.


Thanks,


Steve Freeman

 Steve,

My 601XL has a Corvair engine.  I mounted the battery, along with the batte
ry contactor and battery bus (fuse block) behind the passenger side seat.  
(see photo).  I later moved the fuse block to the floor to make it more acc
essible. 

Jay

Hi Steve,
            Have  you tried calling the Zenith factory? I am told that 
Caleb has a spreadsheet  that positions battery versus engine type and weight.
