Building your Zenith CH750

Snippet from the video series by HomebuiltHELP that demonstrates the construction of the popular CH750 experimental STOL aircraft. Details on the complete DVD series is available at HomebuiltHELP.com

No cross bracing in the fuselage?

[@TheRajneesh99]

is it shipped with engine ?

[@Jeff034]

do you think you saved much $ by building the kit? or is it about doing the build itself? thanks

[@JamesSmith-op7yc]

What happened to the original CH701? They just seem to be getting heavier and more expensive. Light Sport STOL is now so good, I should have bought & built one 20yrs. ago. Shame one can't live in a small aircraft, I built a house instead...

@eimb1999 That was the 601, they have a mod to fix the problem..

[@JohnMGreiner]

I have the HomeBuiltHelp videos for my CH750. For the skins supplied by Zenith, did you sand / debur / polish the edges of the skin from where they were cut out of the raw aluminum?

[@HomebuiltHELP]

Always debur the edges.

[@JohnMGreiner]

Thanks for all of the videos and the reply. They have been very helpful for me.

[@rangsilandrew3542]

Is it strong enough without the fuselage

[@woodleyj99iscool]

@eimb1999 and you need a bit more glue as well :)

[@pylon500]

Hey look, someone building an aluminium box!

[@JBW27]

Hi. Do you have to treat all the metal for anti-corrosion or not?

[@gunnersdoubleott]

@eimb1999 it was a different aircraft and old news.

[@halnineooo136]

[@jwboll]

@eimb1999 it's easier.
I have assembled 3 different kitplanes in the same amount of man hours one of my friends has taken to assemble his twin jet engine Model airplane!

[@737tech]

Not a good idea. The crankshaft might not hold up. But there are several engines that are based on the VW engine that have been designed for aircraft use...
