    John, That was me that made the post about the CKJH 701. I work on it on & off with 2-3 other volunteers. One of whom is Steve Smith who used to be the shop teacher. George moved to Italy for a few years, His wife was transferred there by the Navy. The School program was ditched by the school because they got a new principle and a new shop teacher. Both of whom were some how threatened by the project. We tried to bring in an additional teacher who was willing to support it, but because the school never offered the program to the kids none of them signed up to take it. So with out the kids to participate there was no funding to pay the willing teacher. One of the students actually told me that the new shop teacher had told his class that "they were not to touch the airplane because the metal causes cancer". I think he was referring to the Fiberglass cowling the kids were making. Basically the new faculty wasn't into it so they swept it under. I have no idea how these people get into the school system? My Wife has formed a new non-profit for girls called Our Beauty Within. It is an organization that sponsors programs for girls that build positive self esteem and positive body image in young girls. We hope to run a similar program for the girls and build a 601. We hope to use the Rosy Riveter theme. www.ourbeautywithin.org -------- Brady McCormick Poulsbo, WA www.magnificentmachine.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=212100#212100

    Thanks to all. I did go back at it and finally got the little $@*%#$## off. First I pushed (hard) the entire assembly (2 modules) in the aft direction to slip the both of them off the metal bracket. That gives good access to them both. NOTE: viewed as installed there are three (3) tabs on mine. One on top, one to port or stbd, I forget, and one on the bottom. I actually got the top one apart after accidentally breaking the top one. It was still difficult to get the other 2 because when you get one eased off the tab and go to the other the first one returns to the locked position. You need 3 hands. For the other (bottom) one I intentionally cut off the same top tab first. now I can CLICK a terminal in and out...Thanks for the help.....Geoff Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=212101#212101

    According to the B&C wiring diagram for the "504-1 PM-OV 14 Volt Over Voltage Module" I need either a 10 amp or a 15amp fuse to connect to the Power BUS. Depends on whether I have a SD8, a 200G or a SK10 alternator. This is referring to my Rotax internal generator. Ive got the 80 HP Rotax UL engine. How do I know Which type alternator this is. I cannot find anything in the manual. All this for a Fuse rating. Anybody help please? ......Geoff Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=212107#212107

    specialty I believe those alternators are all add-ons that B&C sells and not relevant to your Rotax. See figure Z-16 ""Rotax 912/914 System" in the appendix to Bob Nuckoll's AeroElectric Connection for one way to use the overvoltage module on a 912. https://matronics.com/aeroelectric/articles/Rev11/AppZ_R11M.pdf -- Craig -----Original Message----- From: owner-zenith701801-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-zenith701801-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Geoff Heap Sent: Monday, November 03, 2008 11:10 AM Subject: Zenith701801-List: Now I need help with the PM OV module from B@C specialty According to the B&C wiring diagram for the "504-1 PM-OV 14 Volt Over Voltage Module" I need either a 10 amp or a 15amp fuse to connect to the Power BUS.

    Thanks Craig. I would still need to know what fuse I need. Below is the link to the relevant diagram at B&C. At the left side the 14 gage wire is hooked into the Main power bus. my interest is in the fuse choices listed there. http://www.bandc.biz/PM_OV504-500_RevE.pdf I tried this link. It works fine................Geoff Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=212141#212141

    Subject: Re: Now I need help with the PM OV module from
    B@C specialty The symbol on the B&C schematic is actually for a circuit breaker - compare it to the symbol for the 20 amp fuse coming off of the battery and the 15 amp fuse in the lead from the alternator before the voltage regulator. The 2 amp device feeding the relay's coil is also a circuit breaker. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to reset the overvoltage circuit after it triggered. In the Rotax 912 installation manual (Edition 1/Rev. 0 dated May 01/2007) the schematic in figure 67 on page 109 shows a 25 amp breaker between the output of the voltage regulator and the battery. The key function of a fuse or breaker is to protect the wire attached to it. You don't want a fuse so large that the wire ends up acting as the fuse instead. And you don't want a wire so small that it can't safely carry the current required with a tolerable voltage drop for normal operation. And that is a function of current requirements *and* the physical length of the wire. Overall I'm not wild about the general design shown in the B&C schematic - I think it has been simplified too much just to show how the OV module is connected. For example it has the charging current from the alternator passing through the main bus to the battery and doesn't address the starter circuit. It differs substantially from the typical Rotax layout shown in the Rotax installation manual and Nuckoll's own design in figure Z-16. Since Bob designed the OV module and probably drew the schematic on the B&C site I'd get his opinion. He is active on the AeroElectric list on Matronics. Sorry, I know this is not the simple answer you were looking for. But I think the overall design of the electrical system controls how the OV protection is designed in. If you have not already I would strongly recommend buying and reading Bob's book cover to cover. -- Craig -----Original Message----- From: owner-zenith701801-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-zenith701801-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Geoff Heap Sent: Monday, November 03, 2008 2:03 PM Subject: Zenith701801-List: Re: Now I need help with the PM OV module from B@C specialty Thanks Craig.

    Well, the 701 airframe is down at the Bremerton airport and has the wings and engine mounted to it. The 601 airframe is next to it on the ground awaiting us to move it to the hanger at Apex. The 601 is the airplane we hope to run the girls program with.

    Sorry this is my mix up, I must have replied to the wrong email? It is too bad though, it was a very cool and educational idea. I wish I had built airplane parts in shop.. instead of a birdhouse, a candy dish ( I wonder what happened to that) and a gate latch and a bunch of other stuff I don't even remember.
