Left Lewiston after delivery first week of August with all the annunciators working. Some time in the past they quit working unless the music button...

The pods come clear gel coat / CF, but can be scuffed and painted.

Thanks for the update. Good to know the solution to a problem.

Update on Sky-tec Starter Issue. After replacing the solenoid on my Sky-tec starter a few months ago , I've had no intermittent "failure to...

You'll need a different rear accessory case for an engine driven fuel pump. Considered full injection when building my EX-2 but decided against it. ...

may have solved issue, the positive lead on the earth x wasnt fully secured, I lifted the battery out of the compartment and the (+) lead twisted. I...

I am building a EX2 and the battery box is rough 3.5" x 5" x 6.15" it looks like the https://www.jegs.com/i/Braille-Batte.../B129/10002/-1 is too...

If you’re still interested in the paint equipment, please contact me. John Cooley

The Denso voltage regulator is integral to the alternator. Since you have changed the alternator and the problem didn't change it's unlikely that...

a loose wire or something is fooling the alternator into thinking voltage is low... EarthX says this is not battery related, but I still wonder

These are voltage and amperage data from prior to voltage issue, and since voltage issue (sorry they are sideways). The noise in alternator output...

It still sounds like an instrumentation error. I think you need to measure the voltage at the 12 V Aux outlet when the high indicated voltage...

Thanks Pete! Can I get one made of fiberglass instead of CF?

Yes, Lewaero Works makes fuel or cargo options that fit the Carbon Cub. No STC required on experimental aircraft. Email parts@cubcrafters.com...

Do you have to have an STC to install a belly pod on an experimental Cub - -like a CC?

Is there a company that build a fiberglass (non carbon fiber) belly pod for a carbon cub?

ok, bit the bullet and just replaced the alternator with OEM brand new replacement, thinking the only source of high voltage had to be coming from an...

That’s not as bad as I thought it might be. Would you take $1100 shipped to 87031?

If the hole is cut properly the tang of the latch plate is in contact with the door and there is no shear loading on the adhesive. On my FX-3...

What I learned is that it depends on if you're using it to lock the window closed when you leave the aircraft. For example, if you put the window...

Pretty sure they are all put on the same way, the right front probably has most use/tension and is the one Ive had the most problem with. Just be...

I am having the same issue - the front right-hand metal latch plate started coming loose from the door just after delivery and now completely falls...

It's possible this is an instrumention error. It seems strange that the ignition battery voltage is higher than main bus voltage. It should be a...

No report on alternator test. Going back to mid October, looks like both voltages had been creeping upward, prior all at 14.1-14.2. Mid October...

I just changed mine, and it was not difficult. One trick was to jack the plane on one side to get the fuel to the outside of the tank you are...

Did they provide a test report? If so, what were the loaded and unloaded output voltages? I have data logs from several different FX-3 and...

took the alternator off and had it tested. The alternator shop felt the alternator functioning normally? Hmm. Pete Dougherty is trouble shooting.
