Rebel option choices

[Walter Klatt]

Well, today seems to be a day for arguing different options on the Rebel. I
notice we keep getting new builders (and owners) of Rebel kits on the list,
who are probably wondering what is best for them.



Here's just a start where you can find strong opinions on both sides. Heck,
even Wayne and I disagree on some of these.



If you search the archives, you could dig up a lot of discussion on these to
help you make up your own mind. Or just ask away. I am sure those of us, who
like to express our strong opinions will speak up.



Flaperons vs split flaps

MAM extended droop tips vs Fife tips

360 vs 320

Rotax vs LycCont vs Subaru

Speed fiberglass cowl vs alum with nose bowl

Bungee gear vs spring gear vs die spring gear

Sensenich prop vs composite

Vg's vs leading edge cuffs

Firewall cut back 3 inches vs not cut back

Tail fin offset vs no offset

Tail ventral fin vs no ventral fin

Mogas vs avgas

Dynafocal mount vs conical

Baffle mounted oil cooler vs firewall mounted

Stock MAM doors vs gullwing

Battery firewall forward vs battery in baggage area

MAM amphibs vs other amphibs

MAM tailwheel vs other tailwheel

Fiberglass tailwheel spring vs Alum spring vs steel spring

MAM gas caps vs flush style

Single brakes vs dual brakes

2 seats vs 3 vs 4

And haven't even touched the panel choices.
