Great illustration content....the best I have seen. I would like to be a owner of Sling TSI one day... but at least I have your content to fall back on... Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
Great video, thank you for sharing! I'll definitely will get this kit for my plane. The only thing I'm not sure is about adding the fuel filters at the wing root before the pumps... Do we really need these filters? aren't the gascolator and fuel filter at the engine compartment enough?
While having the pumps close to the tanks seems like a good idea, the sensor on the fuel selector seems like it adds the potential for new faults. What happens if that sensor fails, is there a way to manually control which pump runs? Are there bypasses on these pumps so the engine can continue to run if they fail?
Yes there is an override switch for the selector. The pressure sensor monitors that as well. And the pumps default to gravity flow, as a typical boost pumps. Great questions! Thanks for watching!
@@petereedy8252 Hey Peter. The service interval is 100hr/1yr. The filter is relatively coarse, so the element can be removed and cleaned of any debris then re-installed without needing to change out the entire assembly. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
@@TheBaldPilot thanks mate, just been told that my QB High wing should leave SA for AU end of June. I’ve got lots to learn, your videos have been great, thanks for all effort.
G'day Rob.. love what your sharing mate... I probably would have used a spring inside that little tube to bend it.. and I would have taken it off the tank first.. I'm loving your work and have been making notes for when i commence my build in australia. Hopefully next year.
@@jeremyolney8316 Good tip! I've worked with 3/8" aluminum fuel lines previously, so I am familiar with its malleability. But I could have done a better job for the video. Thanks for watching!

Thanks! Good question for the guy at Aerospace Innovations!

What sort of service interval do you envisage for the filter? Do you need to just remove the access plate or is it too tight to get in to replace?

@@petereedy8252 Very exciting!
Is this in addition to the fuel pumps on the firewall or did you remove those fuel pumps Since you have these on the wings?
This is in addition to. Boosting the current fuel system.
