The ZAC demonstrator and all factory built examples of a 701 have the battery in the tail. I am going to mount my battery last. Position will be determined by weight and ballance.

bottom access hatch.

Some comments have been made in recent months indicating that some
builders have

If the sentence below is true, how about some more details about how to
mount and secure the battery. Also what about access? Another panel in
the rear just like the one under the baggage compartment? I'm working
on the rear fuselage now and want to plan ahead. Thanks. Robert

Hey Listers,

FWIW. If memory serves me correctly. I asked Roger, at OSH this year, what the small access hatch in the bottom of the fuselage at the tail (this was a different hatch than the larger one just aft the landing gear ) was for on his 701. He stated that the Battery used to be there, but he moved it forward. I forget where he said he moved it to. I know he has over a thousand hours on the airframe. I don't remember if he has gone to a different engine. If so, mayby that is why he moved the battery.

The only reason I asked Roger about it is because I'm helping a friend on his 701. I agree that the best method is to weigh the airplane after it is assembled and determine where to put the battery. Just my thoughts.

I'm building a 601XL but the situation you are confronting is the same for us all. Don't be too concerned about predicting exactly where you might need another access port. Anytime before the plane is painted it will not be a big deal to cut out a suitable access port and fabricate a hatch cover to fit inside of it.

I have put in access ports where I know for a certainty that I will eventually need them. Anything else will be dealt with as the need arises.
