ragtop,
Thanks for the comments. You'll have to talk to the monitor for that.
===============

Cowl flaps (cont)
Prefer hitec 645's but not enough room with the muffler pipes so had to use 225's. Due to space, the lower two cowl flaps were not made functional. A servo reverser was needed and will be tied in with the choke servo.
The usual procedure for flaps: cut hinge side first, install hinge and then cut remaining two sides. Some flat head #1X3/16" screws used. Unlike installing a functioning canopy, functioning cowl flaps is a very simple process with the added plus of keeping the engine from over heating.
