Hi Everyone.

My name is Tony and this is my first post.
I've been looking online for a blank instrument panel for my Model V
tail-dragger, so I can redesign it.
Unfortunately, all I find are companies that cut them for you and sell them
with instruments.
But that's no fun. I want to do the wiring and dremeling myself.
I would greatly appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction.

Wish you all blue skies.

Tony, if you can get a piece of 1/16 or 3/32 aluminum sheet, 6061 T6, and
the shape, it is fairly easy to cut it out your self. A band saw would be
best but a saber saw will do. Someone should be able to send you a full
size drawing if there is not one in your kit. If the model V is the same
panel as the model IV, I can send you one. Also, the Dremel may be nice for
clean up but there are better ways to make the cut outs. Hole saws are
available that size and a fly cutter will do it in a drill press.
I had someone cut mine with a CNC milling machine. In the Pulsar I have
been building the panel was cut out with a CNC water jet.

You could check with Kifoxaircraft.com, I'm sure they have them. I should
be the same as for the Series 7

It is just a piece of aluminum. Make a cardboard mock up and cut it out
your self. You only require one 90 degree bend at the bottom, pretty
simple really. You can get as fancy as you like with design.

Hi Tony,
Welcome to the list. I have a drawing of a Model 5
panel that was done in Autocad that can be printed out
full size if need be. Let me know if I can be of any
help.
