Well I used the SEARCH function on the forum page and found a multitude of comments toward the discussions about leaks in the NPT threads on the RED CUBE. Its stated there is a PASSIVE RECALL on older units. Each red cube comes with a serial # on a tag. Its this serial # YOU NEED and then CALL THE factory in Bend Oregon. I want to say thanks to all the guys who offered advice in those posts to fix leaks. I noted that the conversations were in a YEAR AGO posts and very up front.
I am at that point to install my red cube in line mounted along two bars on the motor mount. My question here (which I didn't see mentioned) about the type of fitting on the red cube. Obviously one end is male and what is the favorable other end be? Male or Female? I'll have to have both hoses made, one leaving the servo and one leaving the spider to the red cube. Open to your ideas! Those two thru holes in the Red Cube body,ARE those used for mounting with AN 3 bolts?
I took the posts to heart and called the company in Bend Oregon and asked if they could make a RED CUBE with fittings conducive to fuel line installation for experimental aircraft. Some of last years threads posted good sound changes/ideas for our installations. I suggested that maybe a model could be produced & offered for us experimental plane guys. I passed on that the guys feel a strong sense of quality in the red cubes function as a fuel flow device. I hope that a new model might come out of our conversation. Its always a good thing to question, hoping for a favorable conclusion.
