 |
|
Hi,
I just ordered the fuselage, flaperons and slats kit for the 701 from Zenith. I think I would like to add the diagonal “L” angle stiffening pieces to the fuselage bottom, top and sides as some builders have done.
Are they a good idea? I would appreciate any comments.
If they are, does anybody know how many lengths of L angle are required.
Regards,
Perry

Perry, I have diagonal stiffeners in my 701 and they help but I still get some rattle in certain fligh conditions. It is telling that the diagonals are stock on the 750 so if I were building a 701 again I would not hesitate to put them in. As for how many to order, I don't remember but essentially one for every bay. I would seriously consider adding a second diagonal for a "X" in the large flat side panels immediately behind the baggage wall as I think one diagonal still leaves too much unsupported 016 drum skin and is likely the source of the slight rattle I have left when flying uncoordinated.
Hope this information helps

HI Doug,
Thanks. I asked Zenith to add them to my order. Won’t say who, but someone estimated 11 lengths were required, and I have a couple extra lying around. I will definetly go for the “X”.
Regards,
Perry
