    I didn't want the lacing on the outside where it would get beat up.  I thought it might protect the laces better. Idk.

    I was worried you had to have a flat surface, that the valleys between ribs would cause a problem. Thanks AK

    So the manual talks about fuselage stringers but I'm not understanding where they go. I'm not finding any pictures. What are they made of?How big?

    Wings half covered
    So I have the bottom side of both wings covered I'm into it 6 hrs. 3 hrs per wing.  The tops of the wings will go quicker. Feels like progress  thanks for all the questions everyone has helped me with.

    Inspection rings
    Do inspection rings mess with the airflow and effectiveness of the wing?  Can you put them on top of the wing?  I think JimChuck said somewhere a soldering iron for drain holes. Do they require anything else or just burn them in?

    Do inspection rings mess with the airflow of the wing. Can you put then on top of the wing  when you use a soldering iron for drains is there any additional required or do you just burn a little hole and call it good

    -40 rated zip ties
    I'm doing my stringers on the fuselage and I'm using epoxy and I want to use -40 rated zip ties to secure it instead of the wire. I've actually already used them. Do I need to redo with stainless wire or am I ok.

  18. Browning added a post in a topic "Bush Gear"   

    I'm new to the site and it's my first kitfox. I've come to the same conclusion in all my reading. I feel a good bush tire is all I need to get the most out of my bird and soften the bumps. Oh and get rid of those cables.

    I would really like to do wing tanks instead of the header tank. Seems like they are hard to come by.

    Keep it light hand prop
    Rotax 532. I want to keep it light. Should I take the electric start off and just hand prop.  Is it worth it. There a lot of weight there.

    The Nancos are mounted. Brakes are ready for lines and bleeding. Test fitting parts. I am missing the rib the attaches to the passenger side that the roof hooks to. Anybody have an extra.
