At the Keepit Regatta we use the GFA dry handicaps and as Casey said, we adjust
for engines weight when fitted and not accounted for in the reference weight.
It would be nice if we could adjust the 18m gliders to something more realistic
but since the Sports class are now competed ballasted I th
Good morning all
Today I have a question for the electronic specialists on this forum.
My new ASH 30 Mi has approx. 11m of electrical cable between the avionics
battery in the top of the fin and the front instrument panel.
What voltage drop can be expected at the panel if the combined avionics
In order to calculate the voltage drop, we would need to know the exact
conductor size of the wiring.
Of course the circuit is actually going to be 22m in length.
You can (fairly) easily measure the voltage drop with a voltmeter, to
measure the voltage at both locations while the load is applied.
N
Length isn't the only variable here. Best just to measure the battery
voltage with a multimeter, then measure the terminals at the LX9000.

Hi Bob
Many thanks for your quick reply.
I realise that the size of the wiring comes into it but I was working on the
assumption that
the electronic specialists amongst us would know what wiring the manufacturers
usually
use for this applications.
BTW, I’m not blaming the wiring, I just need
Refer to AC43 but measure anyway.
Who knows what the German glider manufacturers do with wiring.

As I said, maybe the DRY handicaps for sports class need review, the ballasted
were changed a year or 2 ago, time at which I was told the DRY handicaps for
sports class are no longer used because the Sports Nats are competed ballasted
but we still use the DRY sports handicaps in other events.
naturally the germans involved would...ask a silly question, even a rhetoric
one.

Well you can size the wiring properly by referring to the tables in AC43.
Nobody here seems to know what reference the
German glider manufacturers use, if any. Bernard
could presumably just ask Schleichers.
In any case, just measure at the battery
terminals and at the instrument with the sam
Hi all,
I would like to buy a B800 or B400 with GCD.
if you have one sitting around or upgrading let me know.

The B400 doesn't have a GCD, nor cruise mode vario processing.

Hi Richard.
I'll take the B40 off your hands.
You send it with my Flarm.
Cheers,
Bernie.
