This video series features my construction of the Sling TSi experimental aircraft.
This video series features my construction of the Sling TSi experimental aircraft.
The Sling TSi Kit is the airplane Sling fans have been waiting for. All of the style, economy and practical utility of the Sling 4, but with more SPEED! Harnessing the power of the Rotax 915iS or the all new Rotax 916iS turbo-charged, fuel-injected and FADEC engine, the Sling TSi maintains the quiet, comfortable and smooth ride with an extra dose of horsepower.
The Sling TSi features an all-new high speed wing design: optimized for the power and weight of the aircraft. The leading edge of the wing is flush-riveted for low drag. The forward fuselage and empennage are also flush-riveted. The landing gear is airfoiled, low-drag wheel pants incorporated and there is a new cowling design.
The interior, seating, ventilation and heating are improved for passenger comfort and luxury.
Although the Sling TSi shares a similar appearance and the distinctive “Sling attitude” with the Sling 4, it only shares about 20% parts in common. It is a completely new aircraft, with different design goals than the Sling 4. The main result of these changes is SPEED.
From the Sling Website: The Airplane Factory is proud to be the producer of high quality, high performance Light Sport and Experimental Aircraft. We take every step to ensure that each aircraft produced, whether ready-to-fly or kit version, is held to the highest of standards, above and beyond that required by ASTM or the FAA. The reason for such meticulous design and construction is because most of us here at The Airplane Factory are pilots. We know and understand the concerns of our fellow aviators and we would never build anything we did not 100% believe in or endorse. Every new design prototype is tested to its ultimate breaking points to ensure maximum reliability and durability, not to mention the extraordinary efforts The Airplane Factory goes to in order to make sure handling and stability are in the upper echelon of all airplanes on the market today. In addition, each kit we produce is inspected and assured to be top quality before being shipped to the buyer. The Airplane Factory founders feel that the Sling airplanes and kits are the best on the market and believe that you will soon agree!

As a plumber I've had things go that way on hydronic systems, and the less time you spend figuring out a hack and getting to rebuild the better you feel. :P Thanks for sharing the screwup, that's what drives others to review review review.

You are welcome! What's interesting is, I already had someone contact me to say they made the same mistake! That made me feel a little better. LOL. Thanks for watching!

Just found your channel, nice build, sweet rotisserie! Drilling rivets is as much part of the build as pulling them, keep your bits sharp there's many more to come!

If I was building a plane, I would have to redo every third step, as I always overlook things. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Good on you to share your oversight with us. Gives you street cred as being normal like the rest of us.

In the words of anybody that's built a plane (or house or anything really), shit happens! The beauty of modern CAD designed and CNC match drilled structures, these bits looked interchangeable, and probably less than a couple of hours work. Spare a thought for guys building from plans, and drilling their holes from rough tape measure marks, half of their rivets probably wouldn't have lined up.

Really interested to get some more details on your dynon avionics, and what you are planning in the panel if you can maybe touch on that in a future video? I am just about to start a tsi build and and looking at going the same route with dynon/afs. Thanks for the great videos btw -super useful!

Yes I will certainly do a full review of my panel that was built by Advanced Flight Systems. The panel has been built and bing shipped to me now. Thanks for watching!

Hey buddy.... I had to laugh. Before.... your hands were in perfect shape. After.... looks like you got in a fight with a rooster.

Why the goal of no antennas on top? I do have a GPS puck forward of firewall for my G3X, but the antenna for my IFR navigator is on top, so it's fully unobstructed. I thought that was required, or at least recommended by the manufacturer, for IFR / WAAS GPS. That aside, it looks like your rotisserie is really coming in handy!
@TheBaldPilot

I just really like the look. Hey I have no hair on my head. Why have hair on top of the bird?! But it was the Vans " bottom diamond" antenna layout that I liked. My panel has the option to upgrade to the WAAS Garmin 175, and I probably will do that. I will make a pad for a top mounted puck near the luggage compartment area. Yes, the rotisserie has been super handy. I made one for the wings too!

@@TheBaldPilot a ga35 will fit the top antenna mount, which you'd otherwise have to figure out how to patch anyway since there's rivnut holes in the skins. Cool idea with the 2 av17's on bottom!
