Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft Haunaman
Is this Ultralight Sails in St-Fabien Qc? They claim to use CNC machining for precision cuts and stitching, and that they have provided many sets of sails for X-Airs.? I just spoke to them about a set of sails for my X-Air Standard and was planning on placing an order when a spot in their production schedule opened at the end of August. Has anyone else has any issues with this company? I may have to rethink this purchase from them.?

Somebody tried to answer for me. but he was wrong it's not an individual it's a sails seller here in Quebec I've seen his name on here before I heard good things but now he's not answering my emails. When I bought the sails ($3000) ?he said he would fly down and help me put them on for a fee. now I can't even get him to answer my emails.

So I'm looking for some advice has anybody ever covered the fuselage of their haunaman with anything other than sailcloth. I purchase sailcloth replacment but it does not fit. it doesn't even match the old sail cloth that was taken off and now I can't get any response from the guy that sold it to me so I'm looking for some kind of alternative

I'm thinking maybe I could covered with superflite cloth instead. just the fuselage I don't need it elsware the covering did fit wings and the tail it's just the fusalage I'm having problems with. has anybody used superflite cloth to cover the fuselage?

sometimes you need to just hold things in place with
plastic clamps or maybe temp cable tie in place to stop moving.
also first job is to velcro it around the vertical finn
tube
?
I have posted below the instructions from my build
manual it might help
?
Seamus
?
Drape the cover over the
fuselage, join it up at the back first with the Velcro after passing the
rudder cables and elevator fork/trim cables through the holes.?
?
Fit the support battens
330307A,B, C & D into place, 330307B doesn’t fit into a pocket it locates
on the side brackets see B16D.? 330307C locates into a
little pocket and then hooks into an attachment at the fin LE see
B16C.
Start to
loosely lace the sides and top of the cover in a zig zag formation, but do not
tighten, you may also use cable ties for this if preferred.?
Attach tube 324 (shown in B16).
?
Lace up the bottom of the cover starting at the back,
working your way forward, time will need to spent on this to get it nice and
tight.
Continue
lacing up the sides and top until the fabric is tight.? You
will find that after a few days further tightening can be
achieved.

Still struggling on the fuse sails..
When we get one end or side lined
up the other is off.
Then I can't seem to pull the bottom together .
Never been so frustrated . I have pics but I'm not sure how to put them on
here. Is there aomething were missing her or were the sails just poorly
made?

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft sail installation

You have no choice but to un lace at front and join the
velcro at rear and work forward, we used to always burn two holes at the rear
and fit a cable tie to stop someone opening it as it is a real pain to get
joined up again.
?
If it is laced with the string replace the string with
cable ties much easier to pull fabric forward just keep going around each one
bit at a time until it is tight

Re: X-Air Ultralight Aircraft sail installation
I have had mine opened up half a dozen times now and found the best way was to lace it up then go back to start and pull lace tighter and work back to end of lace then Velcro was no problem
