Re: Waiex #0056 Panel

Hi Kip,

Actually, I had that in mind. The only radio I have is a FL-760 and I mounted that high up on the panel. If I add a transponder it may be an issue, but otherwise I think (hope) I should be good.

Great thought though!

Waiex #0056 Panel

I'm currently in the middle of assembling my instrument panel and have thorough several versions before I finally "got it right" (imho). My thought process is to keep things simple, light and cheap as well as stick as close to the model Sonex wiring diagram as possible as found on the plan...

Re: Kevin in NY - Waiex #0169

Hello Kevin, Welcome and congrats on the purchase of your Waiex kit! Just wondering, what is your kit number? I was recently asked how many Waiex kits have been sold. Anyway, you're really going to like building your plane. Keep us up to date on the progress. Fly safe and best of luck in finishing y...

Re: Any recent progress?

I have no doubt that the Onex and Aerovee combo will be a huge money maker for Sonex aircraft. It only makes business sense to focus on that for now.

Hopefully some day they can continue to work on the Subsonex, since that will be my next project!! :mrgreen:

Re: Aerovee #0361

I sure will Mike. I also want to add that, despite any comments that I've posted that could be taken as negative (which was not my intention), I still have nothing but respect for the Sonex company and can't wait to have my plane up and flying. That being said, I also want to be honest with all othe...

Re: Aerovee #0361

Hi Mike, When I discovered the issue I sent an in depth email to the Sonex technical support email address, and here is the response I received: Clearances in the case are very tight so you most likely have a contact somewhere other than the camshaft. Identify the location of the contact and then yo...

Re: Greetings from central Ohio!

Kip, I sure hope you're right! It seems like I've still got tons to do before I even consider moving it to the airport. I'm sure a lot of it is my fear of electrical wiring...I'm not looking forward to it! Wish me luck :D

Re: Aerovee #0361

Greetings Everyone, I recently mounted the Aerovee on the fuselage and wanted to make sure my engine mounts look like they're installed properly. I took the 16 washers provided in the kit and put a total of four on each mount, two behind the rubber bushings and two in front of the bushings: http://i...

Re: Greetings from central Ohio!

Hello Everyone, After a busy weekend of working on Waiex #0056, I was able to get the battery box, ignition coils, regulator, RDAC unit, and firewall fuel fitting finished before installing the Aerovee engine. I will need to check the thrustline and add washers as needed here soon and then continue ...

Re: Greetings from central Ohio!

Hi David,

Actually, I've never been to a workshop. I'd like to go to one someday but thus far schedules have not worked out. Hopefully soon!
