It is shown in the drawings and in the pictorials. Yes, thanks John. I did trim those away according to plans. I was referring to the L brackets those gussets are attached to (that make up most of the airplane). I was curious if anyone had to trim away the bottom L brackets for the cable clearance.

It looks like it would be vulnerable to leakage. Has this been much of a problem. It is recommended to be placed on the side of the tank. ken -------- ken carpenter Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=218061#218061 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 06:10:56 PM PST US From: "carl" Subject: Re: Zenith701801-List: Prop Pitch I've got a 912 ul with 70" WD 3 blade but my config is Amphibs. I often fly at or near gross of 1200# and like to set 8.5 to 9.5' as a compromise for climb and cruise. This should give you 5100-5200 static on ground.

What pitch (measured at the tips) do you have on the prop and what kind of climb and cruise are you seeing? With me (230 lbs), my BRS chute and full tanks I am about 50 lbs shy of gross and am seeing 500 fpm climb and 75 mph cruise at about 5400 rpm. Is this normal performance? I only have about 5 degrees pitch on the prop which gives me 5650 rpm with full throttle in straight and level flight at about 2000 MSL.
