I bought a series 5 kit that only had two brake cylinders. I bought the additional rudder pedals from Kitfox but I can't seem to locate a source for two more brake cylinders. I've looked on Aircraft S&S, Parker.com, and neither seems to carry them or even provide any info on them. Do you know of a source?

Maverick,

If these seem to be unavailable - might double check with Kitfox to see what they recommend. I am pretty sure Kitfox should have a solution for this predicament.

Our S7, which is a very similar basic airframe to your 5, uses Matco master cylinders which come in a number of configurations. Might be worth a call to them to see if they have an equivalent master cylinder for the application which will work on the 5. http://www.matcomfg.com/

I really think the first choice would be to discuss with Kitfox.

I have a message into Debra at KF but, while I'm waiting, would anyone share the Matco cylinder model number being used on the latest Kitfox?

We use Grove cylinders on the latest model not the Matco Cylinders. The Matco's are less expensive then the Grove.. We may have some in stock..
