Pietenpol-List: simple elevator control stop setup
Re: Pietenpol-List: Elevator Control Stops?

41CC has exactly the same elevator control stop setupas that picture on Westcoastpiet (slotted strap). Worksgreat.And as for the whiskey compass, 41CC has the compassright in the front center of the panel and as I've notedon this list before, moving the stick forward willswing the compass. I'm too lazy to demagnetize thestick, make a new one out of ash or aluminum, or makeany other changes. I've never gotten lost flying thecompass because I only glance at it occasionally as itnods and bobs along. It would take 30 minutes of flyingin the wrong direction to get lost in a Piet anyway(unless you fly over those forested mountains like Jackand some of you other folks).Oscar ZunigaAir Camper NX41CCSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net ________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2009 10:14:49 -0600Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Elevator Control Stops?
