Supplied with the complete
STOL CH 750 kit, the drawings are not just assembly instructions

assembly and parts, and
come with a step-by-step assembly manual (on CD-ROM).

The STOL CH 750
Drawings & Manuals package include a CD-ROM with
high-resolution
Photo Assembly Guides for the
step-by-step assembly of the kit.

The affordable Drawings
and Manuals may also be purchased separately.
Supplied with a serial number, you can
actually build your own aircraft from "scratch" following
the Drawings and Manuals, or use them as a "study guide"
prior to purchasing the kit. Scratch-builders can purchase any individual
parts or components directly from Zenith Aircraft Company.
If purchased separately, the cost of
the drawings and manuals is deductible off the cost of the full kit.
Also available is the
complete Options Drawing Package,
which includes the drawings (blueprints) for the popular kit options
available for the STOL CH 750, including the the Folding
Wings, Long Range Wing Tanks, Dual Control Sticks, Dual
Brakes, Landing Light (LED), Micro VGs, Map Box for Panel, and Center
Cabin Console. The option drawings package also includes engine mount blueprints for
popular powerplant choices (in addition to the standard Continental
O-200 mount), including the Jabiru 3300, Rotax 912S, Lycoming
O-235 (dynafocal & conical). The option drawings package is only
available as a supplement to the STOL CH 750 Drawings and Manuals
package and is not available separately.
"Zenith is one of the few kit makers that still
offers a plans-only option; the company supplies
complete kits...
but it will also sell sub-kits,
individual parts, or just the plans and builder's
manual." |

Also available to builders are useful
step-by-step
video guides, available on DVD, that visually lead you through the
construction of your STOL CH 750 kit aircraft:
Independently produced by an
experienced STOL builder, these videos (and more titles) from HomebuiltHELP.com
are recommended time-savers to existing builders, and are an excellent
resource to those considering to build their own airplane. HomebuiltHELP.com also offers other useful and informative titles.
