Hi Maarten,
Are you planning to add the power supply for the strobe at a later time?
The strobes supplied by ZAC include a separate power supply for each
strobe light. This allows a short set of wires between the flash
tube and power supply which is advantageous from a radio noise point
of view. Perhaps the single supply approach works well too, but it
would certainly require shielded wire to the flash tubes.

I reassembled the tab and I now see the play in the piano hinge too, although this
doesn't seem to be having so much effect on the tailing edge movement of the
tab.
Looking at the servo; the other end the rod which attaches to the servo is a solid
fit. I have decided to replace horn and drill it smaller this time. A 1/8"
hole is called out on the drawing and manuals, what is the tolerance on that
hole?
When I tested the servo with 9Vs it was reeeaaaal sloooooowww but still difficult
to move the tab in small steps using the Ray Allen rocker switch, I can how
it may be tricky to fine trim.
Thanks guys
Rob

Hello Terry,
With the trim and pitot yes, I assume that many times I will
be flying alone and even if I have a passenger she (he) is
likely to be lighter.In that case any mass on the right side
will help. I have a heated Dynon pitot so I can keep the
option open to certify for IFR without opening up the wing
(if I ever want to pursue an IFR license).
My plan is to have lights on both sides to I can wire up a
wig-wag light to have a create a good visibility for my craft.
I have had so many occasion where the ATC indicated traffic
that I never saw against the city background that I want to
go for good visibility.
The second spar is now on the table so I officially started
the second wing.
