Besides being employed as an engineer at Dynon, Doug Medema is a member of
EAA Chapter 84 here in Everett, WA; and a home builder who built and is
flying his RV-6, in which he has installed one of their Dynon instruments.
Just thought I'd throw that out there for info.

I have a Ted Hendrickson propeller which I acquired from Jerry Robinson of
Yakima,WA. It is drilled for the revmaster prop hub which is SAE1 with 4
3/8" dia bolt circle. Jerry flew his KR with this prop to Merced, Ca,
Oshkosh and at least one of the gatherings a few years back. The length &
pitch
Mark,
Thanks for the info! Now to check around the local area for someone that can
drill and balance it. Any idea what they get to do a job like that? I put
my fiber frax and stainless steel on the firewall yesterday and mounted the

When I originally bought my plans and kit of wood back in 1985 the purchase
agreement I was sent came in two copies. I was to sign and date it and send
the white copy back to R/R for filing. This first one for the KR2 was Serial

Don,
I haven't seen anyone answer this one yet, so I'll tell you what I saved
from a previous inquiry on this same subject.
The revmaster cowl was 29 1/2" from firewall to prop hub compared to 26" for
the Hapi VW cowl.

Mark,
If you find someone who will drill those for you, I'd like to know as I have
checked with a couple prop makers and they would not do it for me. I talked
personally with Ed Sturba, and he said he'd only double drill props he had
made. I also checked with Ted Hendrickson, here locally and he
Here's his email address.

Hi Jim,
How much would you ask for the electric turn coordinator? Is it the 12V
model? I would be interested in it if it's the type with the airplane in it.

Mark L,
I was wondering about the cables you used on your Ellison TBI carb for
throttle, mixture & carb heat? In looking at the control cables in AS&S
they have many different lengths and also the choice of straight cable or
10-32 threaded ends. What worked out to be the best solution for you
Thanks Mark, I suppose with that type cable, you could buy the longer cables
and cut them to the length you need.
