Joe, where are you located. I have a shop full of KR2 stuff and nobody seems to want to pay are reasonable price for it and the shipping seems to destroy it. I have a KR2 boat that has a completed elevator on it and its nice, if we can get it to you without the freight crashing it.

To me, the issue is not to withstand the fire, but to prevent ever having one in the first place. Keep your engine compartment clean and don't allow fuel to escape the lines and keep them away from the exhaust system, how you gonna get a fire? Maybe I am naïve about that, but I figure that in a

does this unit have a gray code port to run to other instruments such as the D10A? I assume that it does not have the ability to do weather either. That part is a choice but not having an out put limits future use, I was very disappointed when I found out that the ATC that I bought a couple

Keep in mind that 85% of the plane is done, I just want a set to validate things with, and for the wings. Though I do agree, I would only worry about it not matching anything in a newer set of plans LOL. Joe On Sat, Dec 18, 2010 at 4:43 PM, Virgil Salisbury wrote: >

My favorite is West Systems with the fast cure hardener. A little pricy but worth it. I used the Rutan Safe T Poxy years ago but it is no longer available. You might also look for Shell 862 resin and TETA hardener mixed 16 : 1 by weight. The hardener is toxic so use gloves. Joe Scappoose Ore.

I have very long leads on the wiring harness for the EGT and CHT that comes with the Dynon D10 and I asked Dynon if there was any issue with shortening the leads to the proper length. This is not the thermal couple lead coming from the sensor, they are the wire leads going from the end of the

I would have to agree with Jose on this. I am using the aluminum lines in the fuselage and a steel braided rubber line with AN fittings from the firewall fwd. My opinion is that barbed fittings may be fine for your lawnmower but not at 5000 feet. Craig www.kr2seafury.com --- On Sat,
