I was most impressed with what I saw at Kitty Hawk with regard to the Zen1.
Definitely a strong contender in the side by side market and the leader as far as space and comfort is concerned!

I once had a GEN light come on and all charge lost, recycled the circuit breaker, has never done it since. (**) Your logic makes sense if you put only one device...
As usual, well informed and lucid Flynote. How do you feel about flying with fuses rather than circuit-breakers? Is it a factory optional extra perhaps? I am in two minds about it.

Pusher configs with gimbal pitch & roll controls became known as Gyrocopters. Igor Benson patented the word Gyrocop...
