REFLECTOR: Looking for Roof NACA Vent Documentation for SE (MelBina)

[Chris Barber]

I think I have a set of the pre-molded NACA's for an SE.  I was thinking of installing them on the bottom to help cooling.  I have long abandoned the thought.  I don't remember what they cos met.

Mel, I'm one of the two you sent templates to.  I tried using them but tried my own innovation... putting them on the cowl.  It didn't work at all.  In the end, I purchased the premolded scoops from Velocity and mounted them in my STD-RG per plans.  They work great!

I built my own in 2003 and sent a copy of the template to two people.  If they read this I would like to ear how they turned out.  BTW, the ducts come off with the cowl on my system.

That makes sense if shipping overseas, but not if in north America? Much faster ans easier to use pre-made NACA's.

I asked the factory for a couple of pre-moulded scoops for my XL but
it was going to be a lot cheaper (maybe not easier!) to make my own
rather than ship them oversease to me, and so Scott sent me a detailed
set of instructions plus a paper template.
Give him a call.

The factory does sell a pair of naca scoops that you can install in the
roof.  Its pretty self explanatory.

I read in the Reflector that Velocity put out a document a long time ago
on how to build your own Roof NACA Vents for the engine.   Does anybody
still have a copy of this document that can be sent to me?

Thank you,
