FWF, Rudder, Servos, Cables, BOMBS, and MISSILES! 

It’s looking great, Mark. Eventually, I’ll get caught up to where you are. Fox3😂

Masterpiece! Amazing work.

"Worried how I will get this finished" its hardly your first rodeo is it? Your workmanship, and attention to detail are second to none :-)

On my Comanche, the airbox is attached to the carb with studs.

I love the paint scheme you used.

Instead of studs for the carburetor box, use stainless Allen grub screws, that way you can tighten the nuts better.

Yes...I had a feeling I saw videos up to date..went back watched a few over..looking forward to progress on your superduty

You are doing a great job!

Prop looks Awesome

Thanks for sharing. Very excited to see how your plane turns out!

Great video! Your build looks great! I share in your frustration on what’s next/what works on my SD build. I’ve been plenty motivated since the Zenith Homecoming, but haven’t realized much visual progress as much as I anticipated! Not making excuses… it’s just part of the building adventure!

use a long stud or bolt on the air box, put a standoff between the carb flange and outside airbox. just drill through airbox under the carb flange. the standoff keeps the airbox from colapsing on the carb flange steel part that you are going to powder coat. use blue locktite on the mounting bolts.

On mounting the carburetor air box most engines have a little stud that goes into the threaded portion of the Carb. Then a plain washer and all metal lock nut are used

Just a bit of a ‘heads up’ : A flight controls cable requires a minimum amount of contact (surface area) with a flight controls pulley (groove) in order for the pulley to rotate freely, as opposed to the cable slipping relative to the pulley, as the former moves back and forth; slippage causes wear over time. The minimum contact is typically referred to as the minimum “cable wrap angle” and it perhaps 🤔 might be specified for types of cable and pulley material combinations in either an FAA manual or an FAA circular (sorry I haven’t references) or you calculate it given (1) the cable tension, (2) the pulley groove diameter, (3) the cable diameter, (4) the coefficient of friction for the cable and pulley material combination, (5) the pulley bearing’s static friction. You should also be able to find various OEM content on the net - which specifies how to calculate the minimum cable wrap angle for a given type of pulley / cable combination. Basically you want to avoid slippage 👍

Ive watch every episode. Some twice..from what Ive seen zenith does an excellent job making parts that fit exact. Holes line up perfect and such...i am looking at the zenith 650 quick build..question..should I expect the same quality as ur super duty appears to be...thanks..

MISSLES..BOMBS..wow..love it...

I’ve run into small studs on similar air boxes. It’s still a huge pain to get nuts in there. I don’t like that design. I would make a cover/access plate that you can remove and easily get tools to remove.

Did you figure out the carburetor box mounting issue? If not, would it be an option to make holes on the plate big enough to pass bolts through and the hex socket to tighten them?

Wouldn't it perhaps be possible to insert the bolt from the top of the airbox and the carburettor and the nut from the bottom? My wife and I are building a normal 701 and only some parts are pre-drilled to A3. But your videos are a great incentive and you have lots of good tips!

First! Awesome Mark!

Where you drinking before posting this 😂

If you're building a FAC plane, you would use Willy Pete (White Phosphorous) marker rockets, not HE rockets.

Going full Bazooka Charlie, I see.
