Default RE: OTOP PICS!!!

Mark,
I'll bring it but I can't see it being ready to fly by that time, I don't want to get in too
big a hurry and screw something up. I want to ask Buddy and Larry about the rudder
mounting on their Impacts anyway , same system on the OTOP. The 1.40 DZ is new
and will need to be broken in also.
I'm still trying to decide on the elevator linkage , I have an MK bellcrank and a D.E.P.S
system also and I'm sorta leaning towards the D.E.P.S. because it seems to be a lot lighter
and a lot simpler once it's installed , less moving parts (cheaper too).

Switched the Excelleron back to PowerMaster 30% and the 1.10 is running the way it should
now. I just couldn't make it run right on the Magnum fuel , spits out a lot less oil with the
PowerMaster also. The Excelleron is a good airplane , it's the pilot that needs work !
