Kevin,
Since I'm at my work computer, the zenith.aero website is filtered as a "social
networking" site and won't display any of the pictures. I do get the text, but
not the pictures. So if you it's possible, could you please attach the photo
of Ken's wing tank cover to this topic string. This site is not filtered.
Thanks,
Bryan

Ianrat,
I like the paint scheme. I have been seriously considering using the Suzuki 1.3L
with the Raven Redrive as well. I bought the manual from Raven (Jeron?) and
attended the builders forum while I was at Airventure in 2008. I've been looking
for a low mileage engine to start tinkering with.
I know you've just started flying the plane, but please keep us posted on how the
plane and engine perform.
I see that you are using the belly mounted radiator setup. Rick Roberts used that
on his 701 and says that he has no cooing issues at all. How is it working
in your plane?

Does anyone know the max structural cruising speed for the 701 (VNO)?
I can't seem to find it in the plans. They only show max flaps down, maneuvering
speed, and VNE.
Thanks,
Dan Ginty

Thanks to all who replied. I guess I'll just get my airplane flying as is and
worry about the fuel manifold later. Craig -- thanks for the idea of building
a manifold. I'll consider that in the future.

Dan,
On the third page of my copy of the 701 plans (Page 7-G-3) there is a speed
limitation paragraph. It says the Vne is 110 mph or 180 km/h. However, the
plane is so "draggy" that you have to work a little to get it past Vne.

Yes, Thanks Les. I got the Vne, but I'm looking for Vno. Vne (110 mph) is the
redline on the airspeed indicator. Vno, the maximum structural cruising speed,
should be the 'divider' between yellow and green arcs on the airspeed indicator.

Dan,
Now I have questions! What does Vno represent and why is it important for
you to know its value?
When I fly I want to know how fast the plane can go before the thing will
fly apart, what is the maximum speed I can go in turbulent air during
turbulent maneuvers, what speed do I need to be at so I can deploy flaps,
and the speed the plane will stall at in various configurations. I think I
know these things. The first three are provided by Zenith and the last I
have come to by testing. Why do I need to know Vno?
Les

Vno is essentially defined by FAR Part 23 Cert standards. I know it's not required
since we're experimental, but here's the gist:
Aircraft Manufacturers like Cessna show Vno as the max cruising speed and say "Do
not exceed this speed except in smooth air, and then only with caution." Basically,
the certified aircraft are required to show no structural damage if
the aircraft encounters vertical gusts up to 50 fpm at or below Vno (The FAA call
it Vc). For reference, it's under FAA Regs 23.333 through 23.337, although
I recommend a strong cup of coffee before diving into it!
Conservatively, I could just call Va at 84mph the Vno speed, but with a 100hp Rotax
engine I'm hoping the aircraft will fly faster than 84mph. I'm not interested
in flying the plane continuously in a yellow arc region and would simply
like to know what value I could safely show the green arc.
