Raven (kitfox 2/3 clone) restoration
I am new to the forum and am in the process of restoring a plans built Raven.
The original builder who has past on did a very nice job on the original build.
The plane has past through a few hands and is a little worse for wear.
It was originally powered by a 532 but the last owner bought a low time 582 blue head to go in it.
I have compared this plane to a model 4 1200 gross weight and they are very similar in everything except motor mount, cowlings, and flap mixer.
The mount is the thing that i need help with as i feel it positions the motor to high on the firewall.
I would love to hear from anybody who currently owns a model 2 or 3 to see some pictures of their engine mounting and possibly send me some pictures.
I am located 1 hour south of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and would be willing to look at any in southern Ontario.
any help would be appreciated.
