I found a sweet little deal on a "Reserve Lift Gauge" that is being made by a friend of mine. He is building 2 to 3 of these a month in his retirement, and he has built/flown/owns a Zenith 601 with this gauge in it. I think he said it's been nearly two years, and it has performed flawlessy! Take a look...

It comes with everything needed to install for $175 and $15 for shipping. That's a deal!!!
If you want one, send me a PM or email, and I'll give you his contact info!

Comes with instructions and I glanced at them the other night...The blade is on a pivot bolt, and the angle is around 50 degrees. Set it there, fly it, adjust if needed. On Kelly's 601, it is set at 52 degrees. Each wing will be slightly different, but it should calibrate somewhere around 50 degrees.
