Metalworking 101 with rudder workshop is targeted to the beginning student of pop-riveted metal kit plane construction. The ideal audience for this video is the person who is contemplating the undertaking of a metal kit plane project (for example: Zenith, Sonex, Hummel) and wants to witness the actual skills and procedures necessary for successfully achieving this end. This DVD will take you thru the actual construction of a Zenith rudder, from start to finish. While it can be used to supplement the construction guide supplied by the manufacturer with this rudder (a CH701 or CH601), it is actually intended to demonstrate to the beginning builder just what tasks and skills are required for any similar brand of metal kit plane construction. In addition to the rudder building demonstration, general metal building procedures are explained and demonstrated.

Homebuilt HELP's "Electrical Wiring 101" explains and demonstrates the common procedures, tools and components required for the basic wiring of a homebuilt aircraft. the instructor leads the viewer through demonstrations of crimping, soldering, wire selection and wiring design with simple schematics that are applicable to a homebuilt electrical system. A discussion on proper wire type and sizing, fuses and connectors is supplemented with photos of these components for easy identification. Another segment explains where to find resources for obtaining additional electrical data and components used in the demonstrations.
The goal of the program is to allow the beginning builder to observe the methods and techniques used in the design and construction of a basic aircraft electrical system.

Completing a homebuilt requires you to calculate and document the weight & balance figures for your plane and present them to the inspector...and for many homebuilders this task is confusing and complicated -- however, this video makes this task simple and easy to understand. This DVD is specifically designed to teach the experimental aircraft homebuilder who is not comfortable with weight & balance concepts how to perform the required weight & balance calculations for their aircraft. The video makes it easy for you to understand the concepts required to perform your own weight and balance analysis on your aircraft and then document the findings for the inspection process. The video begins by presenting the big picture of the importance of weight & balance for safe aircraft flight, and then progresses through each step using video 'chapters' with detailed explanations. More experienced builders can skip through the chapters to find the information they need. The weight & balance worksheets that are required for your inspection process are displayed on screen, and the instructor explains what they mean and how to fill them out.
