Hi everyone, I purchased a kit at a swap meet back in January. It was being sold by a new Sig dealer in the Milwaukee area (Leo Spychalla). I did some of the modifications that others have described in this thread. I installed a ring on the cowl to eliminate external fasteners. The machine screws i use to mount the cowl come in from the rear since the firewall is accessible behind the cowl flaps. I also didn't like the pull-pull for the rudder so i mounted a hitec metal gear servo in the tailwheel well. Reinforcing of structure where servo mounts was needed. Works well.

any word on canopies? Either from Sig or anyone who is fabricating one?

Also anyone know where i can get rails to make the rear part of the canopy slide down the fuselage.

Thanks to all of you for your posts. Very helpful.
