Vlog #15

I returned to the hangar for a week and did more wiring behind the panel and engine. The loom for all the engine senders is now prepared and ready to install into the airframe. One of the biggest delays is waiting for a shipment of parts from the US, which I have just released.

I will be back up next week for four days with a bag full of parts to be installed. Vlog 15 is now up.

Vlog #14

Vlog 14 is now covering the terminal strips, securing the spade connectors and setting the pressure switch for the fuel pumps.

It was a frustrating time as now the aircraft is just a huge logistical issue with parts to complete the tasks being the central issue or the lack of, combined with long deliveries. Several tasks still need to be finished for this reason, and I am trying to have complete systems at this time, so it is frustrating.

Leaving for a holiday but back to the electric string on my return

This will be the first in a series of maybe how not to, but it will be what it will be.

Vlog #8

Repost I messed up the link

New Vlog #8 on the Tucano. This vlog covers mostly the fuel system and its features, along with and at the end, a short vid on the wing installation and undercarriage. 

It does look cool in the Battle of Britain camouflage scheme.

In this Vlog I cover the issues of removal of the tanks on this Tucano and the scheme that I used to achieve this, part 2 will come later just before the wing installation.

Have fun

Vlog#4

It was a week of consolidation and detailed work around the engine but at this time all the rigid and flexible lines are finished except the fuel lines too and from the pump but that is for a later time.

The paint clearing will be done rain or no rain as I have the sign-writer booked for the 13th of April. Once done the planning for wing installation will be a higher priority. At this point moving into systems and away from construction.

Josh the Avionics man will be over for a week to finish checking the electrics and in particular the engine instruments trying to have that happen before the wings are fixed on

Vlogs on Tucano

Its been a long time between posts and there are a number of reasons but the lockdown and some health issues ate all of 2021 with little progress as I was unable to be at Rylstone. When I left I had three [3] big bits in two wings and a fuselage.

The aircraft has reached a phase where the dedicated posts are not possible, they will occur as the various task is complete and there is a story to tell. So here are my humble efforts all shaky-cam with poor voice over.

These will only be posted on Rumble as I disagree with the competition.

Any questions or comments I am here.

Have fun  and click on the photos below for a link
