Re: Kitfox no:649
I measured the elevator today to see if this is also bigger than the standard Kitfox 2, because my reasoning was this ; " Why only increase the rudder, when a bigger elevator also assists in better 3 point landings, and better pitch control at slower speeds ? " Well-well the elevator IS bigger than the standard one Ek dink hierdie Foxie gaan baie lekker vlieg

Re: Kitfox no:649
Hi J
Klink vir my die een is van die laste 2's voor die 3 uit gekom het. Als wat jy beskryf is die Kitfox3
En ASB check daai heather tank vir SLOSHING compound aan die binne kant, ek het EFATO gehaat met my 2 as gevolg van daai goed in die tank. Haal dit met aceton uit
Groete
Hans

Re: Kitfox no:649
We have stripped Foxie back to kit-form, I have decided to sell this Foxie once she is completed. That being said, she will in all reality be a brand new Kitfox and will not have the Round Cowls , but rather a very sexy cowl set-up, and a paint scheme to match
Will post some foties later.

Re: Kitfox no:649
Frame and tail feathers sanded down , ribs in tail feathers properly fixed in place with Sparbond 345. The frame and tail group will be made white as this makes it easy to spot any possible corrosion in future. All controls will be made bright red, this makes things a lot easier at annual inspection time
I will post some before and after pics once all has been painted.

Re: Kitfox no:649
Here are some updated pics of what I am busy with after work hours on the Kitfox. The dorsal area leading to the vertical stabiliser is a bit "flat" on the early Kitfox models so I made a plan with some 6061 alu tubing held in place with Sparbond 340. The cowls were a bit of a conundrum, the early Kitfox one could have with the "Round Cowls" or the conventional cowls, of which I had no sample. Next best thing...........I am rebuilding a Mohawk (Avid copy) for a friend, his cowls are a nice shape but in badly cracked form, ssssssoooooo.....make a plug out of them , draw a mold, and make new ones.... and a set for the Foxie
More updates to follow as we progress.
Cheers

Re: Kitfox no:649
Ek het die ronde cowls saam gekry, maar die onderste deel was bietjie versnipper Hierdie cowls in die foto is van n Mohawk waar die enjin onderste bo gemonteer moet word, ek het destyds op hulle so n bietjie "snykunde" toegepas sodat die 582 regop kan wees. Daarom het ek gedink dit sal mooi werk op die Foxie.
Daar is n instrumente paneel saam , met radio en al. Iemand het die VSI en ALT verwyder, al die ander instrumente is daar Jy het nie dalk n paar verdwaalde instrumente wat n huis(vliegtuig) soek nie ?
