With that being said, what are some other signs or symptoms something may be wrong with it? Just concerning because a month ago, it didn’t drop that much.

Thanks. Just concerning because it did t drop as much a mo th or two ago.

I have a 1969 piper Cherokee with bendix magnetos. I’ve recently noticed during a run up the left magneto drops around 100 rpm. Approx 50 more than the right. It runs smooth, no issues and I’ve tried burning it off with little to no effect. Curious if this is a problem or not. Sometimes...

Tail beacon has been great. Confirmed with atc and ran the online reports. Mountain aviation in Danville, pa, did they install. Great work in just a few hours total with paperwork.

Just an update here. Had a tail beacon installed installed in PA. Total cost was $2150. Aircraft was flown and Adam is all good and checked out. The mechanic did find an old hornets nest behind the tail light.

Yeah I spoke with one installer who had an issue with a tail beacon. Said everytime it was on the VOR indicator was all screwed up and not reading correctly. Through trial and error, they found it was a bad ground going into the original tail light.

Well this is Interesting. First I’m hearing of this. can you send me a link to the thread or website with these complaints? Mine is scheduled to go in on Friday.

I have it scheduled to get installed at a reasonable price. I did have an IA, who won’t install any uavionix stuff, say since it is being mounted on a control surface, top of the rudder, it’s going to affect the controls now. Ive read the difference between the beacon and nav light is a...

It is at the top of the rudder. I’ve received a few different opinions and such about that.

Nailed. That’s what I was trying to explain but as long as it’s all good.

Someone may have actually had that in mind. Suits it perfectly.

I actually have some bike silicone but it’s a liquid in a bottle. For my bike it says use only one drop

Geometry. Never was very good at that.

It seems when it begins that upward movement, the stabilator binds a bit and isn’t totally free. After freeing it moves smooth again. But it’s so far aft, the plane would never be flown in that configuration.

Lol. Maybe I should do the same but being a new owner I have questions about everything

Interesting. Any idea why it does that

So that doesn’t help me too much. Is it supposed to go up when it’s fully back?

As I’m continuing my quest as a new aircraft owner and utilizing this forum for various questions, I had one in regards to the stabilator on the Cherokee. During a preflight it appears the stabilator is free to move up and down no issues. When moving it up at a certain point, it seems it sticks...

Good information. This scat tubing runs from the air scoop to the gascolator box. Pretty straightforward and easy, after scraping my knuckles up reaching in there.

Not to beat a dead horse and I have read through the AIM, but as the aircraft owner can I replace the scat tubing from the air intake to the electric fuel pump? It’s literally a hose with a clamp on each end.
