Lighting
Section titled “Lighting”I really like the looks of the ZipTips but currently planning on using The Works. Pros and cons of using the Works
-
- Will use Flyleds tail light too
-
- Uses the kit’s wingtip vs a custom wing tip shape
-
- Not as aesthetically pleasing as the ZipTip
-
- Does not have the rear position lighting on the wingtip (nice to have)
Flyleds The Work
Section titled “Flyleds The Work”The Works by Flyleds use the existing wingtips from the kit and provide a fullset of lighting:
- Landing
- Taxi
- Strobe
- Position
ZipTips
Section titled “ZipTips”Single wingtip setup from Aveo’s ZipTip Premiere Winglet. Chatted with Emarit@rv-14a.blogspot.com about his setup and he believes this will be more then enough light.
This will provide the following lights:
- Landing
- Taxi
- Strobe
- Position
- Rear Position / Strobe
VOR Antenna
Section titled “VOR Antenna”Bob Archer VOR Antenna will go in the right wingtip. I have heard these work great but you need to make sure you follow instructions or they don’t work well. See E’s blog for a good set of installation instructions.
- Need to verify the correct size in the wingtip and model of antenna
