I found a service station in our area selling 110 R+M/2 racing fuel. It is 13 bucks/gal. What are UL engine owners finding that works in this engine? I know of using an additive to combat the lead in 100LL but am curious about mixtures of fuels. Thanks in advance. Tom SullivanSee More
Tom Sullivan posted a discussionRegulator/Rectifier connector
First of all, thank you for this forum. I recently received my new UL350is and am trying to wade through some of the hookups. One of them is the connector for the volt reg/rect which comes prewired with a harness. However the alternator also has three wires coming out of it which will reach the Reg. and could be fitted with a connector of their own without connecting to the prewired harness. Just seems like an extra connection to me. Anyone else also experience this??Thanks again,,Tom SullivanSee More

Thanks, Tom. We have taxied the high school plane and are just waiting on FSDO to set up inspection so we can fly it.
Stop by our hangar at SZT some time.
We would like to see and hear about your project.

Yes, the 601HD can be interesting to land. Glad it is the HD as in heavy duty-- as I have had some carrier landings. I would like to see your project. We had one CH701 at KSFF and I had a chance to fly that plane prior to buying the Zodiac. I use Experimental 16BZ call sign as when I use Zodiac, they think Kodiak! I have about 20 or so hours on the plane and we are becoming friends!
thank you sir, I'm gonna do my best.
I didn't powder coat anything, just primer and paint. I can't think of any reason you shouldn't powder coat the steal components if you wish. Yes, you should protect the steel parts. My torque tubes and other "unseen" steel components only have primer on them.
The great adventure begins.... happy building Tom
