I am having a problem finding the 5/16 nylon tube with 3/16 ID. Anyone have a source?

Thank you both for the help.

Is this nylon tubing like for a water line to the refrigerator. I measured a couple of metal tubes and the OD I would need is close to 5/16 with an ID of 3/16. Does that sound correct?

Is the offer for tubing still open? I am working on my kit (third owner) and have found several pieces missing in the vertical stab and horizontal stab.

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Paul,

I have a stock pair of main landing gear. You can email me if you're interested.

Rick

Looks similar to the one I removed from my project. I converted to bush gear and tailwheel.

What is this for? Avid or Kitfox?

Hi Avid Randy,

I have a set of mains for a nose wheel config. Let me know if you are still looking.

Best,

Rick

Thank you everyone for your input on this. 

Rick

Thank you Geoff.

Since the tank replaces several ribs and I think a drag tube, which would indicate to me that the tank is providing mechanical strength to the wing assembly. That would seem to indicate Hysol. Am I missing something? 

I thought scratching the spar with sand paper was bad since it helps for a stress riser in the spar.

I have an Avid MK IV that had the old tanks removed (mostly) and I need to put the new tanks in. I want to use a heat gun to remove the hysol that is still stuck to the spars. What is the appropriate temperature to use? I want to soften the Hysol but the ruin the temper of the spars.

Best,

Rick

Surprised you're having problems. I had an A6 I used in my cub (no electrical system) and flew across the country with it. I would recharge it at night and be good for the day.

Hi Randy,

Do the cuffs improve the performance? If so in what direction better cruise speed or lower stall speed?

Best,

Rick

where are you and what do you want for the engine, mount and prop?

Rick

Hi John,

How are you doing? Does the above message mean you are no longer interested in my main gear? Let me know.

Rick

I sold my nose gear to John. He was talking about buying the main gear as well but I have not heard back about that. I did pass Johns email address to Christian.

Rick

Nice Air-stream you have in that one picture.

Rick

Has anyone flown a kitfox or an avid with a rotec 2800 radial? Seems like a lot of weight up front. I look forward to hearing.

Rick

Hi John,

Let me know if you want to buy the mains we talked about.

Best regards,

Rick

I saw Doc Bailey the dealer in Florida about a year ago. He ran the motor for me and the 4 stroke is nice an smooth. HP is 93 at 3100 rpm and an installed weight of 125 lbs. Just saw they reduced the price to $15,900.

Hi Kenneth,

I have an Avid MKIV with HH wings, new fuel tanks, bush gear and standard gear.

I currently have a Mk IV for Sale. $8,200 obo.

Hi Jim,

I do not have the old tanks.

Rick

This is HH with Stol wings. Tanks are there for both wings. The guy I bought it from removed the original tanks to replace them with the newer tanks. There is a brush gear as sold by Brett. Also a tail wheel. There is no fwf components other than the cowling. It does have the 16" stretch. The wings have been on it, the tail will bolt right on. That's about it. covering material is there but the chemicals are pretty old.
