    Fabric Weight (Model III)
    Will soon be covering my fuselage.  Any thoughts on best fabric weight?  Leaning towards the light weight fabric, or... does the medium make more sense?

  3. LSaupe added a post in a topic Kitfox M-III Prop Comparisons for 582   

    I know this is a rather old post but thought I would throw something out there.  I am building a KFIII, it has a grey head 582 and a GSC prop still in the box.
     
    Long story short is that the engine is fitted with a 3.0 C box.  However the engine was stored with the vent plug off the gearbox and the box got water in it over the many years ruining the gear set.
     
    I plan to run the GSC in the short term and change over to an IVO (68" 3 blade) in the long term.  My thought is to replace the gears with the 2.62, however, is there a penalty loss for going from a 3.0 to a 2.62 with the GSC?
     
    Thanks and Regards,

    As a can't find a way to delete I would like to say hi to everyone.  I am a new Kitfox III builder and live in the Southern Adirondacks of NY State.  Site looks to be a great resource.

    Vertical Stab Tubing Model III KF
    I am making a mod to my vertical stab to accomodate a taller rudder.  I see the o.d. is 9/16. Anyone know the thickness?
