Graeme,

That’s unfortunate it had to happen. Are they sure it’s a Sonex? Did they have any ADS-B info to determine which specific airplane it was?

With the technology today, it wouldn’t surprise me if the owner of that actual airplane gets a letter in the mail really soon!

I think I speak for everyone Lou when I say how glad I am that you are okay after the accident, even if the Waiex isn’t. At the end of the day, you are the important part and we’re all very thankful you are okay. As for the Waiex, that’s a very interesting on your findings and I’m glad you were able...

It’s been years since I had this issue but I ultimately tracked it down to the MGL EFIS and RDAC I had installed. I still don’t know how they are “calibrated” but in order to fix that issue I ultimately removed the old ‘gray box’ MGL RDAC and my black and white Stratomaster Ultra XL and installed a ...

I've never seen stall strips on a Sonex. I have flown a bunch of airplanes that have them, including Cirrus's, Bonanza's, etc. Back when I was flying Hawker 800XP's, I was part of a flight crew that would perform post maintenance test flights and occasionally we would perform stall tests after the a...

Hey All, I have an easy one for everyone: just looking for ideas from other owners with the vertical split cowlings. I have a hinge pin that runs from the oil cooler opening beneath the spinner down to the bottom center of the cowling with one long pin to hold the cowling halves in place. Currently ...

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Sonex Brian! I hope you love the airplane! I’m not sure of any tools that will work for you. The standard is to remove the rocker assembly, torque the head bolts, reinstall the rocker assembly and finally check the valve clearance. It’s not a quick job but...

Interesting. Okay thank you. I had a 10K resistor in there but that makes it seem like it’s still a dirty signal so maybe I’ll try that as well. Use a bigger resistor and see if that cleans up the signal a little.

Thanks for the thought!

Hello Everyone, My apologies for digging up an old thread, but I continue to have issues getting a reliable tach reading from my Jabiru 3300 and MGL XF RDAC. I’ve talked to Michigan Avionics and Jabiru USA and get the same answer…good luck! Ultimately it seems like there are 3 ways to get a tach rea...

Thank you for sharing the wonderful news Todd! I’m so happy and relieved to hear Lou is okay!

I’m sure everyone is curious to hear what happened so hopefully Lou is willing to share the story once he feels better.

Lou, if you’re reading this, we’re so glad you’re okay!

I’m glad to hear Phase 1 is going well for you Scott! That’s great to hear. As you install the autopilot servo’s, I’ll be curious of your thoughts on installation and setup. I don’t recall a mounting system for the MGL’s into a Sonex/Onex so if you don’t mind, let us know what you did. That’s a futu...
