    Here is one for a 912 that I bought years ago with the intention to fill in the blanks to the firewall, the tubing on this one measures 3/4 and I would guess it is .035 to .049 I bought this one because I really like the rubber mounting system it uses,

    Well I have read a ton of reviews on these and it looks like the biggest complaint is the digital ones don't register when the load is bouncing around, Probably not gonna work for these tests,

    Anyone pull on a crane scale
    Anybody hook a crane scale up behind your plane and see how much pull it has with your engine prop combo, I'm thinking about buying one off ebay there only 30 to 50 bucks for the smaller ones, If I do would you guys want to pass it around the forum and record your numbers, Just a fun thought,

    I think that only applies if the original company is still in business, you may have to check the box that says built not from a kit, Kitfox has a form how to do this, on the early models 1,2,3, because the Denny aerocraft and sky star company no longer exists,
