If you get the blades with the alum. inserts at the mounting bolt = area I think you get a higher torque of 1/2" bolts, more secure, better&nbs= p;fit. David

Hi Dave;
I thought that you were using an IVO. I've= got the 30"-90"=C3=9776"Magnum and I never saw numbers like that. I = knew I should have cut it down but I also knew that one day I would order n= ew blades for it which I did about 5 weeks ago. So I'll be looking to sell = the blades only and I figure they may be hard to sell without the hub but a= s they are still full length they have a better chance of being bought by s= omeone looking for replacement blades.
I'm looking forward to fly= ing behind the deep pitch version.
What reduction ratio are you r= unning?

Do something everyday. That advice was given to me long ago wh= en I originally began my project. One little job (or big job) everyday and = eventually there will be nothing left to do but take It to the airport. Now this might sound oversimplified just like the whole "journey of= a thousand miles" thing,
But what I believe is the key to this is that = if you do something everyday then the details of the project are always kep= t in the forefront of your mind and when you have a hour or two to work on = it you don't waste time trying to think about where you left off or what yo= u are going to do next.
For almost 12 years after I last flew my = plane I was overwhelmed with other projects and responsibilities that I all= owed to fill my brain to the point where when I would have a moment when I = could consider working on the plane, I would find myself feeling overwhelme= d and not knowing where to even start. So I didn't. Until finally I did. In= the intervening years I did keep a task list on my phone and continued to = lurk on the list so when various new ideas were brought up I would add them= to the list for future consideration. The list grew to a very daunting siz= e, to a point where it was discouraging to realize that I had been flying t= his machine and somehow there had grown this almost insurmountable list of = tasks to accomplish before returning to the skies. When I finally got back = into it, I started by just saying no to all the other jobs and favours that= were consuming my time and space in the shop and then I spent an entire we= ekend not doing much more to the plane than familiarize myself with it and = develop a mental state where I could recall the details of the many interre= lated items that make this thing defy gravity. This is necessary but wasted= time that could be avoided simply by doing something everyday then the det= ails stay easily accessible in the forefront of my mind instead of buried i= n the dusty recesses of my mind. And now that very long list has only a sma= ll number of items without a checkmark beside them.
When I starte= d this project I was a relatively young man compared to all the old timers = that seemed to dominate the airshows and getting an aviation medical was a = simple formality. Now how the years have slipped by and I find myself facin= g next week's medical with apprehension. Although a little sore in the morn= ings from many previous injuries Im still very active and feel great, but I= also realize that now that I've crossed that half century mark, there are = a long list of hidden ailments that could be lurking unknown that would pre= clude the passing of a medical. And that would be truly heartbreaking to ha= ve wasted all these years not flying this plane.
= ; Then all I could do is ramble on, offering unsolicited advice on forums..= . ;)
Lyn, over the the years you have given us much great advice = based on your years of racing experience. Now let me give you some. Go out = to your shop and lower that plane to the ground and do something on it. Tod= ay. And everyday.

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in th= e dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity= : but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their = dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

The micron rating of the last chance filter would be the same as in th= e car the injector came from or was used in. Find a filter with that micron= rating (the one from the car) and cut it open. Lay out the paper or wire m= edia and measure the square inches. Double that number and buy a filter(s) = that have that numberof square inches of media and AN fitting capabili= ty.

There is no application for hose barb fittings on an airplane or= a race car. Change the filters at annual.

Sintered bronze elements can be plugged solid by a dose of water. I wo= uld not use them. This is race car stuff. My BD-4 hangs from the ceil= ing unfinished.
