Work has been progressing on the lower rear fuselage. The buck, or wood plug, is the focus right now for that. Considerable attention has been paid to the...
I actually have never calculated max speed at sea level, the lift at this low altitude is so high (In dense air) that you have to use maybe negative 3 degrees...
No, it's not just you, I can't get in either, I'll find out. Thanks, David Algie Algie Composite Aircraft http://members.iquest.net/~aca/ ... From: masofshad ...
Sorry, the website went over it's alotted usage for the month, new month, back up now. David Algie Algie Composite Aircraft http://members.iquest.net/~aca/ ......
It doesen't look like much, but I added a pic of the lower rear fuselage buck under construction. You can see the rear wing fillets tapering down on the upper...
I didn't want to develop an engine package to begin with. I chose the Lycoming TSIO 540 as the engine for this aircraft. Considering the new price of this...
Very interesting. While most of us are aware of the improvements in the LS-1 "reverse" cooling system, I have not personaly seen the increased wear in actual ...
Bit of a strange problem, I don't think it's from the water temp variations though, I'm not too familiar with the 4.6 Ford engine, it's probably like a lot of...
... I know of modern engines that gets quite annoying piston noise when they go over 0.0008! Probably due to piston design, rather than wear issues. Regards, ...
Just an add on to the engine post, when I decided to use a small block, and eventually the LS1, I ALSO didn't want to develop a redrive box either. I got specs...
I'm aware that factory clearance for a Ford 4.6L V8 with cast pistons is .0008" to .001", and they are indeed of a modern slipper design. I'm not talking ...
If you think about it, cooler cylinders are just that; the cylinder is cooler, thus has less clearance, the piston not quite picking up all the heat transfer...
I added a pic on the ACA website of the lower rear fuselage buck, progress has been slow to report but this has taken some time to get going! (Had to buy...
May I respectfully suggest reposting all pictures to the Files section of this Group? By doing so the resolution available to members goes way up. Right now...
David, Ty Frisby here, I just looked at the new picture of the lower fuselage buck. Could you explain where the air outlet will be, and how you plan to layout...
Ty, Hey, Well, in the pic you can see at the front a stepped up area just before the bellypan joint, this will be the rad exit area. It's a bit hard to figure...
Dear god, that's a huge increase, what engine were you using? As I believe, Rotaxs are the standard bit for that job.... Can you spare some more details...
I will be attending the EAA Oshkosh convention at the end of this month. I plan to be there on Friday 1st Aug through the Sunday the 3rd. If anyone would like...
I am now building the upper engine cowling buck, while I'm in "Buck mode" as well as the lower rear fuse being done (It's all cut out), I think that doing...
I added a couple of new pics, of the turbo exhaust system, I have just gotten the turbo tailpipe finished, this view will "Fill in some of the blanks" of how...
... Beautiful work. Those inconel bellows look familiar. Now we know why some people opt for belt driven superchargers: they're easier! Do the wastegates...
Well, he's got one person helping who is skilled in most of the required areas. The missing areas are simply labor based on my part 8-). AI Nut ... From:...
