Re: Uavionix tailbeacon in VariEze Bill Allen #118 I haven’t installed a Tailbeacon in my VariEze yet, but I did instal one in my C337G. It was straightforward (especially after I sent a faulty one back) and they were as helpful as I could want. The beacon can be turned off via their App, so if one wanted to instal it in the hellhole, or the nose, that would be possible. Only the test flight results from the FAA would determine if your installation works sufficiently well.

Cleveland Wheels & Brakes for sale h2w@... #116 If anyone here needs wheels/brakes for a Long-Eze. I have an unused Cleveland wheel and brake kit for sale. the wheels only were used for a short time in my garage to roll project around, never outside etc. Calipers and rotors were only used for a fit check, otherwise they have lived in their box. The kit is as received from Aircraft Spruce. I upgraded to Groves so these are no longer needed. They would work out well for a plans built Long-Eze. Currently this specific kit is $3,045 on AS&S. I bought this kit many years ago, and I'd recommend replacing the o-rings before use (these brakes calipers have never seen use and/or brake fluid, by calendar time they should be replaced). AS&S link: link I'm asking $1,500 (less than 50% of AS&S price) plus shipping. I'm located in the PNW (Seattle)

Re: Trio autopilot Don B #115 Del The ForeFlight flight plan goes to the Area 660 and the 660 sends steering commands to the autopilot. You should turn the Bluetooth off on the mini once the flight plan is in the 660 otherwise it does some strange things. I reported it to ForeFlight, but they didn’t seem interested in digging in to the problem.
