    Default What Have You Done Today To Your Kitfox?

    Every forum needs a thread like this.

    Today I replaced the label maker switch and circuit breaker labels with transferable vinyl letters from https://smalllettering.com
    Cost about $70 and took less than an hour to remove the old labels, clean with alcohol and apply the new labels.
    Here are a few before and after photos.

    They did my 12" registration that I installed a few days ago. They did a nice job of matching the classic Kitfox logo on my tail.

    Very Nice. Thanks for the lead. I can use a couple labels like those still. Ive given up on making decals with my Decal Pro FX kit. White letters are just too difficult to produce. All the other colors work fine if anybody was considering that kit.

    Just getting her all dirty, last couple days.
    Heading back out in a couple hours.
    Feeling great to get some flight time finally after working on it.
    Haven't been this awake in a long time.

    Are you using the Powersonic battery as a backup?

    Hey Larry, how about a before after report on your VG's once you get to flight testing. Thinking of doing the same . Thanks Bruce N199CL
