| Re: PAU 36% Edge 540 Build
On the bottom of the third former back in the tunnel I needed to dremel a half moon in the former to get a little more room for this large canister. So I got on the scroll saw and cut out a holder for the KS-95 using the plywood used to box the aircraft. I added hardwood triangle stock on top of the holder and fuel proofed the bracket for a little more strength. I also added a couple of small pieces of ply on the backside of the former so my screws have something to bite into. Now I’ll mount it using servo screws from the top were the fuel tank mounts and into the bottom of the former. I use this same system on my 43% with no issues and it’s very light. Again it’s simple and removable once the proper sized canister becomes available for the 85. The last picture is my error on the header drop. I have not screwed everything in place yet until the new one shows up. Again, 50mm drop for a rear exit KS-95 and 25-30mm for the front exit. I hope that all made sense.

Nice cannister install Ken, I have always loved that method. I'm going crazy waiting for the weather to get better so I can fly the 43%. If the weathers not looking better this week, I'm going to head south and put this bad boy in the air. BTW, guess how much sub-trim and travel adjust the elevators needed............NONE!!!!!! Man that makes life so much easier. Top notch design and construction on these suckers. |
