Tire inflation with Nitrogen or ? by [email protected]
Michelin recomends inflating tires with nitrogen. What about Argon? I got a bottle of argon I use in Mig welding aluminum. Isn't argon better than Nitrogen? What about the common 75% Argon and 25% CO2 welding mixture?

I have a composite fuselage and use an aluminum disc with the standard quarter wave antenna. If I place the antenna and disc below me so the antenna is on the side of...

ELT antenna in composite planes. by [email protected]
ELT normally uses an externally mounted antenna. But in composite planes it may be advantageous to use a ducky. 1. On crash the external antenna may be destroyed - brushing against trees, whatever. An attached ducky on the ELT will likely stay on. 2. A ducky radiates nearly isotropically - i.e....

Harley oil cooler for interior heat. by [email protected]
I don't have heat inside my canard plane. Now am considering piping hot engine oil to the cabin through a small oil cooler with a blower. I am looking at a Harley Dyna oil cooler - about the right size. My question is whether such a cooler will stand the typical aircraft oil pressure. My engine oil...

Audio panel for experimentals by [email protected]
I have an RST-564 Audio Panel to give away (all original manuals). Just recently upgraded to a fancier PMA4000 unit after some noise issues. I had the RST-564 working for 3 years. Tried to sell it on eBay with no takers so I'd rather give it away than trash it. Prefer somebody with decent...

Camera vibration mount. by [email protected]
Just tried to take a video today of my flight and used about 1" of foam under the camera to hold it down. It does ok to absorb actual frame vibrations but not the jiggles (potholes) on the taxiway and other sudden shocks which send the camera rattling on the soft foam. Any suggestions for material...

HID landing light by [email protected]
Maybe somebody already brought this up. But I finally found a decent priced HID light kit and converted my halogen (H3) landing light. Got a motorcycle conversion kit from eBay for $63 incl/shipping. For more info see my page http://www.abri.net/sq2000/21.html

Engine vibration with advanced ignition. by abripl[_2_]
Been flying my canard for a few years now - it has a Franklin 6-350 engine and LSE dual ignition. I often noticed a slightly extra engine vibs in the 2500-2700RPM range (maybe its my imagination) and I used to fly it 2400rpm or less. All this time I had the ignition advanced probably an extra 5...

need 24V to 115VAC 3 phase inverter for gyro by [email protected]
I've got an ARU 44 gyro and I'd like to power it off my 24VDC system. It needs 115VAC 3 phase, and about 75W to 100W. Is there an off the shelf unit that can do this, or maybe someone knows of a schematic to build my own? I'm an electronics engineer so I can do this, but inverters are not my...

LSA Approach speeds by Ace Pilot
During some hangar flying, the question was raised if there were any potential LSA (light sport aircraft: max level speed 115 knots, VS0 39 knots, max weight 1,232 lbs., limited to 2 seats, etc.) with approach speeds equal to or above 55 knots. I couldn't come up with any, but I thought...

Airworthiness certification of an experimental by Ace Pilot
Where can I find a fairly detailed explanation of the airworthiness certification of an experimental aircraft? Specifically, I'd like to know if experimentals get certified in a class (land, sea, single engine, multi-engine) or just in category. I'm sure I'll have additional questions, which is why...

HKS 700E Engine Reviews? by acepilot
Is anybody on the list using the two cylinder (4-stroke) HKS 700E engine? It's about the perfect size for an upcoming project (Georgias Special) and I'm wondering about its reliability, toughness, etc. compared to say a 1/2 or full VW. The original Georgias used 28 HP, so a 1/2 VW would work and...

comm's RX antenna by acepilot
I assume you are putting an antenna on the OUTSIDE of the van. If this is the case, there is no such thing as too big a groundplane. If you are putting the antenna inside, then it is probably more easily understood that all that metal will be a shield to RF. I would recommend getting a 1/4...
