Re: Sonex-A purchase - What to look for

Sadly we have lost Darick. https://www.yorkdispatch.com/obituaries/mpa087606 I've never met him in person or seen his airplane but I'd be inclined to think it is a good one. Edit: the photos in the middle of his build thread are missing. Thanks to the photobucket/postimage debacle. But in the beginn...

Re: Sonex-A purchase - What to look for

Oh yeah - electrical load. You only have 20A to work with. Some of that is for recharging the battery after start. Some of that is to run the secondary ignition for takeoff, landing, or a failure of the primary ignition. How much is left over? Beware overdone Sonex electrical systems. Also see this ...

Re: Tailbeacon on a Waiex

Robert, I'll definitely post pictures. We are getting close. Adam may have a good lock ring today and then will work on a mold for the tailbeacon mount/fairing. We plan to make a conical-ish 3D printed male mold, lay up glass on the outside, remove the plastic, slice the tail tip and bond it in. Bob...

Re: Sonex-A purchase - What to look for

We are coming up on 240 hours on our AeroVee. Biggest issue is oil leaks. More of a mess and nusiance than a safety hazard. Biggest single XC was a bit over 460 miles. I want to fly to Sun-n-Fun some year. My biggest worry is spousal, not engine. My engine was built by my then 15 year old. Weight is...
