Do you have cabin heat and how did you hook it up, I have a minimax 1100R with a 447 Rotax open canopy but am thinking about installing an enclosed canopy.
Yes, I have and made it such way: Because I have opposite engine, and exhaust pipe goes under fuselage,(see video czcams.com/video/kNaKq6vvjOg/video.html ) I welded round 2. layer of steel with oversize appr. 10mm, tilted front down and back upp almost as possible for better air flow, and in the rear highest point made 1 1/4 '' outlet for warm air and through the fuselage floor let it in with SCEET -5 flex. ducting, which goes to PVC pipe diam.1 1/4 used in plumbing. In pipe I made 2 holes diam 20mm,one blows warm air to legs , another one to hands (You can see it for very short time in video at 5:28.min). Rest goes to air inlets near instr. panel. Works very well, You just feel insufficiency during descent.
Silva 70P marine. Yes, very readable, but also very sensitive - I had to add an extra magnet to compensate deviation from engine's flywheel magnet. And ,despite of all, I coul'd not fix it, in some directions it is up till 20*.(before it,was 40+) But it is a problem for all, I have flown with some planes You can 't trust to compass at all.
Yes. But I don't recommend it with original wings. When flap droops, it creates lot of drag You should correct with pedals. Very uncomfortable,even I say, dangerous thing. The only benefit is lift 6 degree option, it increases cruise speed appr. plus 5kmh. I made this option because I knew i shall have speedwings, there flap function works great in all positions.
Thanks! I'll try, but I don't think there will be ''better result''! But this is just my opinion. I'll try to restrict head movements, when filming, what I absolutely ignored for "more realistic" movie.
I am in love with your panel! Those landings are BUTTER smooth!
Thanks! But there I already made an upgrade... to be continued...
HA! What a great little plane.
You must be the menace of your town, I know I would be.
vol en palier à 90 km/h à 4200 T /mn , en montée avec 6 m/seconde 5800 T/ mn c 'est tout bon un Minimax
Super cool!
Does Czechia have ultralight specific rules or is this considered the same as general aviation? Looks so fun.

Ok thanks you have a really nice plane
What kind of compass is that? I really like it!
Silva 70P marine. Yes, very readable, but also very sensitive - I had to add an extra magnet to compensate deviation from engine's flywheel magnet.

Is that lever in the floor on the left flaps?
Yes. But I don't recommend it with original wings. When flap droops, it creates lot of drag You should correct with pedals. Very uncomfortable,even I say, dangerous thing.

Nice plane! Mount the cam somewhere fixed for better results.

NICE Minimax,summer fly to LKJI Jihlava CZ?
Is this a part 103 Ul?
No. And in our country there are no speciffic rules for part 103. My plane weights 189kg
