  1. akflyerbob added a post in a topic Poly Fiber Cleaners and Solvents Substitutes   

    I have used 105 gun solvent/cleaner w/poly on the 4 kit fox and 1 avid with good results.
    I used the blush retarder on two of them but didn't see a difference.
    I ask several shops what they use and they said 105. 1/3 the cost and not as deadly.

  5. akflyerbob added a post in a topic mod IV almost ready   

    The exhaust came from  Rotax Rick and wasn't even close to fitting.
    I had to turn the down pipe 90 deg, while keeping every thing the same length and diameter
    and slightly change the down angle,
    I understand he now has an exhaust that is supposed to fit????
    In the picture the exhaust is in the cowl

  12. akflyerbob added a post in a topic Motorized Tailwheel Dolli/Towbar?   

    I have a snow blower that the blower part is gone.
    I would be good for that if a third wheel and pull device were added.
    Actually that's what I bought it for. It has 5 forward and 2 reverse speeds, all slow of course

  13. akflyerbob added a post in a topic Rotax Rick 618   

    The weight of the 618 is the same as the 582.
    It will come with an exhaust but it will have to be modified to fit under the cowl.
    I do have an exhaust supplied by Rick, built by some exhaust builder that also has to be modified
    to fit in the cowl. Some mistake between Rick and builder, not backed by either but was $500.
    Avid used the 618 for the Catalina so the stock exhaust is the rear exhaust.

  21. akflyerbob added a post in a topic Early Avid and Kitfox doors interchangeable?   

    The mod 2 and 3 doors are different from the mod 1.
    The mod 1 has an extra angle at the bottom the 2/3 doesn't have.
    Don't know about avid doors tho.
