hallo oaks, can or do you accomodate 0-235 firewall forward on any one of the 2 kits? Also I see on the photo`s page that ZU-ERK utilize airfoil tail feathers and a spring undercarige, are these mods optional, or was it done by the owner. Andre

Hi cap232
We can provide the FW forward kit for the O-235 but will need the motor to build the engine bearer unless you have an accurate drawing. Will also need the motor CofG and weight data. If cowls are to be included in the FW fwd kit we have to check that what we have will fit the width of the front of your motor (pretty sure it will!) Probably best to get the motor to us for a couple of days.
Airfoil tail feathers are done by the builder and not part of the kit, not hard to do, just extra work.
The spring gear is available as an optional extra, either ally Grove or steel local but this must be stipulated before kit delivery as there are modifications required to the fuse before covering.

Last chance, only 1 slot left at the reduced price. You can choose the model. Safari or Explorer.

Hi cap232, which lyco are you talking about? In general most aviation engines 100hp or less will be fine for the Explorer and 130hp or less for the Safari.
Regards
Stefan
