    Default Static wicks

    Hi all,

    Just wondering if anyone had static build up issues on KitFox. Trying to decide if I should install static wicks and also if I should bond electrically bond all the big pieces together...

    Thanks in advance!

    Just follow the build manual and you will be fine.

    I wouldn't worry about static wicks or bonding. You could ask the factory, but I'm not aware of anybody doing them.
