I recently installed the Taildragger Max version of the Seven Star lights on my RV 7. Absolutely love and highly recommend them.

Looks great! We’re using one of those Epson heat shrink labelers on our Zenith 801 project and I agree - it is the shizzle!!

Anywhere I can follow your project? What engine are you going with for the 801?

@@TheShays alas we don’t have a website. We bought a 2000-hour Lycoming O-320-H2AD off of a flying 172 that was upgrading to an O-360.

I just had a mixture cable like that break 2 months ago at 10,500’!!! I went with a twist set up.

@baselegaviation1614 Ай бұрын

which mixture cable are you talking about? All of the engine controls on my RV10 are high quality ones with threaded ends and rod end bearings, the same as any twist control.

@@baselegaviation1614 it was the one that looks like a piece of welding wire like the one shown in your video. Briggs and Stratton lawn mower set up basically.

Where are your front seats from? Beautiful!! I would like to put them in a Zenith Cruzer. I would like to heat them and use 5 point harnesses with lockable shoulder inertia reels. Beautiful work!

From the Syracuse basement. Thanks for the comments. I think Oregon Aero offers sheepskin seats.

This may be a never-ending debate, but I would like your input. You went from two side-by-side displays to centering the two displays in front of the front passengers? Why did you separate the two screens and now that you have a little bit of time on the new configuration, which do you like better; side-by-side or separated?

@baselegaviation1614 4 ай бұрын

the 6600’s are bigger than the 5400s. Yes, I would like them both together but they are too big to be on the same side. Plus it would put the navigator GPS too far away. AeroSport products makes a nice panel that allows for a center screen, but I didn’t have the time or money to make that complete change right now. AFS has a really nice feature in that you can put the right screen in map mode and remote zoom it from the left screen. It works pretty cool.

great panel but is it difficult to get the airworthiness cert updated for IFR operations?

@edcew8236 4 ай бұрын

No, simple

@baselegaviation1614 4 ай бұрын

The airworthiness cert has nothing to do with IFR. It is specified in the operating limitations that night and IFR are permitted if properly equipped. if you older ops limits, it may have been omitted. just call the FSDO or a DAR and they can issue new ops limits.

You mentioned that you have a Tru Track autopilot, but I see a Dynon autopilot head in your new panel. Are you using the Dynon to command the Tru Track?

@baselegaviation1614 4 ай бұрын

yes, the SV-APPANEL you noticed allows direct entry to the autopilot functions instead of having to use the screens. it also has me prepared for when/if the Trutrak fails I can just install the Dynon servos and be ready to go without having to cut a hole in the panel.
