0.3 air time
0.4 flt time
Inter-flight activities:
- Completed annual inspection.
- Adjusted pitch trim governor to highest speed.
- Shipped EFIS to Dynon for service, and reinstalled it.
- Removed turn and bank and had it repaired. Reinstalled it.
Events:
- Slow flight.
- Stalls.
- Avionics functional check.
- Two touch and go landings.
New Snags:
- None.
Existing Snags:
- RPM still low in level flight with max rpm selected.
- SD-8 Alternator does not seem to be working. Will defer troubleshooting until engine break-in is completed, as it would be useful to check for AC output from alternator during an engine ground run.
- Small amount of right rudder pedal force needed in cruise. Need to add a wedge on the left side of the rudder trailing edge.
