REFLECTOR: Mechanical Nose Door

[Alex Balic]

Ken- did you say that you were going to manufacture these? Would be
interested in the spirit of KISS and all- this is a much better design then
what is supplied with the kit, and the factory should consider converting
over.  Please let me know how much you think they would be- I can fab one if
you have some drawings that you could supply/sell.

 

Thanks

 

Alex

      Those that were interested in the video of the Mechanical Nose Door
assembly can now find it on Brett's Wiki site
http://wiki.velocityxl.com/index.php?title=Mishler_nose_gear      Thanks to
Brett.   I would much rather work on airplanes than try to figure out how to
send pictures on a computer. I wrote that I have 2 ready to ship but I must
explain that these 2 are just prototypes and will not be the final
production part. I would like to install 1 or 2 more so as to get the
variables ironed out before putting them into production. Some day soon this
would be an afternoon retrofit but not yet. I would really like the next
install to be local (FL) if possible, so I could oversee any imperfections
in my instructions or product. 

     Just a note about the closing mechanism. The hydraulic system that
comes with a Velocity kit works really well and has for years. The only
reason for the Mechanical system was to eliminate the need for the extra
plumbing, the door closing cylinder and the sequence valve.
