14:30 is CRITICAL INFO !!! Don't tighten till everything is in place. Hand tighten with the fitting 1/4 turn to be in the correct "clocked" position. That way when you tighten the nut the line has zero twist. Great video Brian.
Excellent detail, Brian - as always! Thanks for all your trail blazing on the Beringer install details for us future Kitfox builders: I’ll be in touch by email. As for viewership falling off, I suspect ‘making the most of summer’ is the reason for most people - come the fall/winter catch-up, numbers for each vlog will rise again.
Hi Brian--Love the videos! You mentioned viewership being down, well that's probably due to summer as well. I am one viewer who will be catching up on your videos soon. Keep up the great work! I can't wait to see the results. Thanks, again.
Great job Brian! I quality of this video is amazing. I especially love the camera that swivels on the wing.... breathtaking clarity. Also, as a Kitfox build your attention to detail is refreshing.
Great, super great actually, video. Chock full of great stuff. Firstly, your Kit Fox F 7 looks amazing, especially with that Apex 300HP motor on the front. Stoked to really see the full paint job with the wings on. So a while back I saw a pic of carbon fiber landing gear covers for the full Beringer Alaska Landing Gear. I made a mental note of it but thought it might just be a cool finishing touch feature. But after seeing Mike Patey's Scrappy winglets design; I thought, I wonder if those carbon fiber gear covers actually add aerodynamics? Also it was cool to see you and StolRats get a shout out from Mike on his scrappy build and mention how he respects you enough to paint StoleRats on the fuselage of his new aircraft project.
It looked like too much of a bend at the parking brake tubing, over time may be an issue. I love the shot with Kevin sitting on the floor under the plane, that is some serious ground clearance.
I'm wondering why more people aren't switching to the Desser setup. ABW are super expensive and wear out so fast if you are forced to operate from pavement, and with heavy tread, they are heavier too. I see that Beringer makes a 10" brake setup, I wonder if anyone has used that on the 31" desser.
It looks like the CarbonCub uses a bigger single caliper as opposed to the two smaller calipers on the Kitfox. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Also, was the anti-skid system installed on the CarbonCub? Is it an available option?
You are correct, the CarbonCub uses a 10” wheel on the ABW 35” tires, and the CarbonCub does not use the brake pressure regulator. It is a very straight forward install.
The TK1 shocks are nitrogen only where the ACME uses a combination of air and spring. They are both very good and much better than anything else out there, but the TK1 can’t bottom out like a spring Shock. I have put them through the paces on my Kitfox 5 and could’ve happier with their performance. The other major factor is the outstanding customer service from Tony at TK1, nothing but the best.
Side by side versus tandem seating is the biggest difference. I know several tall pilots that preferred the carbon cub for the leg room. Performance wise, they are very similar, but the cost to build is much less for the Kitfox and fuel burn will be less in most cases. They are both great.
They are all plastic brake lines. The outside section will still be stainless, but those are plastic/nylon inside the stainless braid. We don’t use aluminum or steal lines on these aircraft. I have never had issues with them on hot days.

LOL...Ace Hardware aircraft supply store...I work for Ace and glad you're a customer and happy we had the parts you needed.
Maybe I should contact ACE about being a sponsor for the STOL Drags at Reno. LOL
@@BowenAero LOL that would be awesome and the red Ace logo would really pop on the black/grey color scheme.
Brian, I'm very impressed with the work you showed us on the installation of the Beringer Brakes. A good clear video with good sound. Thank you.

Great video Brian.
Idaho trip looks awesome

Bryan helped me get all new Beringer wheels and brakes for my kitfox. Saved 5lbs and the wheels/brakes are awesome! Thanks!
I love the shrink wrap with adhesive in it. Works great.
Great content, thanks Brian, keep the build vlogs comming!
I was more concerned, given the times and your profession, that you were okay, Bryan. Thus I was quite happy to see this latest video. 😉
I appreciate that!
I was beginning to wonder too.

Great description of the Beringer brake system !
A really good video, Brian, Both in content, sound and video quality. Interested in how you plan to quiet that screaming Yamaha!

You’re videography is great!
Those wheels are sick

Nice kit.
I wonder ho hard Berringer would be to put on a Zenith CH750 Stol instead of the Matco system.
No more difficult, there is a kit for the CH750.
@@BowenAero cool Ill look into it when I get that far. I only have to rudder complete so far.
How does the antilock thing work? Does it have feedback to monitor tire lockup? Or does it just limit total pressure?
Hey, I am new to aviation and I always wonder how you can control rudder without having influence on the master cylinder ?
I actually found this video (th-cam.com/video/8GPoWjkQe58/w-d-xo.html ) and it helps a lot to understand
Hey Brian! I am building a supercub, wondering why you went with the tk1 vs. Acme aero shocks?
The TK1 shocks are nitrogen only where the ACME uses a combination of air and spring. They are both very good and much better than anything else out there, but the TK1 can’t bottom out like a spring Shock. I have put them through the paces on my Kitfox 5 and could’ve happier with their performance. The other major factor is the outstanding customer service from Tony at TK1, nothing but the best.
Bryan are you going to sell the model 5 once you have the 7 flying?
The 5 has sold.
How do you compare the carbon cub to the kit fox. I’m planning to order and build one. but struggling to decide witch one I want
Side by side versus tandem seating is the biggest difference. I know several tall pilots that preferred the carbon cub for the leg room. Performance wise, they are very similar, but the cost to build is much less for the Kitfox and fuel burn will be less in most cases. They are both great.
Cost for the Super Duty 750 kit ?
Send me an email at bowenaero@yahoo.com and I’ll send you the info.
That brass donut that goes under the braid on the plastic tube is a ferrule.

An olive ferrule.
Plastic break lines, hot day, high pressure... wait & see?
They are all plastic brake lines. The outside section will still be stainless, but those are plastic/nylon inside the stainless braid. We don’t use aluminum or steal lines on these aircraft. I have never had issues with them on hot days.
