I've got a stall warning system installed in my europa "N108EA" and I cannot get it adjusted. The darn thing is either on or off. I can't fine tune it to 5 to 7kt's above stall. This is the stall warning system sold at Europa LTD. Has anyone had any trouble with their's. I'm hoping that there is a quick fix out there. Maybe something simple that I may be missing

There is a suction and a pressure opening on the swith. Try to suck the wing opening. If the stall horn does not sound, blow on it.  It's a pity you started adjusting, mine was spot on out of the box.

Scott & Corky - did you get the correct template for your wing with 

your Mod 61 kit? The positon of the stall warner hole (and thus the 

shape of the template for locating it) differ depending on the 

circumstances.



I'm not sure if Classic (foam wing) and XS are different, but I think 

that installation at build is different from installation after wing 

completion.



I am building a XS wing, and had ordered the stall-warner kit for 

incorporation before wing close. The template that came with it was 

marked BL52.5 and clearly wouldn't fit properly unless positioned 

much further inboard. It should have been BL102. Roger at the factory 

agreed that the wrong template was then being supplied in the XS 

pre-close kits and sent me the correct one.



I imagine that if the hole in the LE is not correctly positioned it 

could make it impossible to get the sounder adjusted. If it is not 

close enough to the stagnation point then the pressure will not 

change in the expected way.



Of course, I'm just theorising as I haven't yet build a fuselage to 

hang my wing on ...



Another question that occurs is - is the stall-warner tube completely 

free of leaks and obstructions all the way to the sensor? Disconnect 

the sensor and check that you can blow through it - and that if your 

lovely assistant blocks the far end that you can feel the resistance 

to your blowing.

I agree with Jos in that I've had that happen to me twice after connecting the pressure tube to the wrong spigot on the transducer; easily done. Regards. Jonathan
