Default Fired on second blade.

Only a minor problem...rpm was 1/2 what it should have been. Easy fix on grt.

I am really tired of settings, configurations, limits, etc.

AW insp Tue.

Will fly after Ted returns from Bahamas and I redo w&b due to Thanksgiving dinner.

Coming up on my 2 yr goal...Dec 1st. Right on schedule. Sorry no pics, too busy to learn for the past two years. You guys know what it looks like. Manly pink and silver.

Ted will post some first flight pics.

Slow build... A couple of photos showing recent progress. Note the McMaster Carr door seals.

Cheers,

Bet you are using Vans tach signal generator off the accessory case drive.

I had the same issue, the drive runs at half engine speed.
