Thought I might start a thread here that would be useful for those at the concept stage of their build:
Vans has put together great kits, and just completing an amateur build in a 'standard' manner is certainly one way to go. We also get the freedom to keep the 'E' in experimental. I didn't fully appreciate that until I was well into my first build.
Chime in with your unique larger modifications, maybe new builders will get inspiration for the 'do-able,' or even a better appreciation for Van's Plans.
Things like unique Engines, Air Conditioning, FADEC, Oil System modifications, Cowl changes, unique cockpit mods, etc. If you made a mod that didn't work out, then that's good to know as well. Critical speculative opinions on other people's modifications are not really the ask here.
Maybe provide a few 'Pros and Cons' based on what you learned?
There is probably someone out there that wants to ask you how you did what you did.
