Subject: | Instrument pinouts |
Hey all, I recently got a hold of an Aero Mechanism 8140B-20 LW encoding altimeter
for dirt cheap. It looks great and appears to work just fine. Does anyone
know of a good place to look for instrument pinouts or wiring diagrams? I know
I can find the proper connector, just have no idea how to hook it up. I'm no
where near being ready to install it, but I'll be slowly researching and planning
my panel in between building the airframe sub-assemblies. Thanks.
Mark

Subject: | Re: Riveting the stab |
Sorry I've been away from this post for a bit, but we just got home from Iraq.
So many things to do!!!! Anyway, thanks for all the tips and info. Which size
rivet gun did you guys use, 4x, 3x or 2x? My rudder kit should be here tomorrow
and I'll be ordering the horizontal stab kit as soon as it arrives. Would you
guys suggest bolts, or driven rivets in those spots? Obviously, I'd be much
better at installing bolts, but you think there's a requirement to check the bolts
for tightness over time? If so, the rivets might be more pain in the beginning,
but less hassle in the long run.

Subject: | Extended Tank Range |
Hi gang,
I ordered the Extended Tank Range (2 x 23 gal US) threw CanZaq Aviation (Canada),
and I would say that I am more than happy [Laughing] by the QUALITY of the
tanks (10/10). The thank had no waves deformation and they are accurate. Even
with my best local welder, I cant find a better Job.
First good surprise, the plan specified 0.025 material in 6061-T6, and the thanks
were in 0.032. Secondo, the tank are coming with all fittings from the tank
to the firewall. I don't ordered the complete kit, only the tank with fitting.
It come with tube vent, fuel quality cap, fuel quality selector, electronic
sensor and a gascolator, 1 inch. cork, fuel line and so on. The inventory is completed,
no missing pieces, conform to plan.
I will post photography later on the photo archive forum.
Conclusion : Its over my expectations and It's dont pay to do it yourself.
Tanks to Zenith and Mark Townson from CanZaq Aviation.

I find it odd that they would have .025 spec'd in the plans and then make the tanks
in .032. In a recent conversation with Tim, he told me they used .025 for
tank construction.
Glad to hear you are happy with the product. .032 would definitely make for a stronger
tank, and easier weld operation.
Still planning to build my own, since I bought .025 on Tim's recommendation that
is what I'll use.

May be It's because they are bigger than standard tanks they made it in 0.032.
