Building your own
kit aircraft is probably on of the most challenging and rewarding things you’ll ever
accomplish: imagine, you’ll be flying an aircraft that you’ve built yourself!
Few people get the freedom and thrills of flying… even fewer are also rewarded by
flying in an airplane that they’ve built themselves. Zenith Aircraft Company can help
you realize your dream of building and flying your very own airplane like no other kit
manufacturer can.
Assembling the rudder Starter Kit is just a weekend project, and
will provide you with an excellent ‘hands-on’ introduction to building your own
aircraft. Once you’ve completed the rudder kit, you’ll have the skills and tools
to continue with the rest of the STOL CH 701/750 kit - and you’ll also have part of
your aircraft completed. We’ll even deduct the cost of the rudder kit off the
price of the complete kit when you’re ready to continue. |
Assembling the STOL CH 701/750 kit is simple
- even for the novice builder. Working from the pre-formed parts
supplied by the factory, you simply line up the parts, drill and rivet
the parts together. Since this is an all-metal aircraft, there’s no
messy doping, gluing or bonding involved.

Metalworking
101
with rudder
workshop DVD
Metalworking
101 with rudder workshop is targeted to the novice kit
builder. The DVD takes you through the actual construction of
a STOL CH 701 rudder kit, from start to finish. While it's
a great supplement to the construction manuals supplied with
the rudder kit, it is actually intended to demonstrate to the
beginning builder just what tasks and skills are required to
build your own STOL CH 701.
In addition to
the rudder building demonstration, general metal
building procedures are also explained and demonstrated.
Watching the demonstrations and discussions of these topics in
this video are clearly the next best thing to attending the
actual factory workshop for
obtaining this knowledge.
The DVD is over
two hours long and provides an excellent introduction to
getting started on your STOL CH 701 or 750. It's even produced
by an actual 701 builder and pilot!
