Group,
I am still on the bandwagon about modifying our flying alternators for an external
regulator as noted in my past posts...........After supplying group member Tim Holt &
also the group with info how to modify the Mazda alternator I remembered the link
below which explains in language even the electrically challenged among us will be
able to understand...............This info may have been already seen by some of you
but I believe all of us should file it and also copy it to have available when wiring
our aircraft electrical systems.............IMHO!!..........

Tim,
For your informaton here is additional justification in my opinion for going to an external
regulator in our aircraft and having the ability to either automaticly or manualy cut power
to the field windings in case of a shorted regulator............Note that solid state regulators
tend to fail "Shorted" about 50% of the time and all current internal regulators are solid
state.............Link Below..................."Nuff Said" !!...............IMHO
