- This is Part1 of a series of videos showing the step - by -step procedure for building the Zenith Super Duty CH750 experimental aircraft kit. While we usually provide these videos for purchase on our website ( HomebuiltHELP.com ), this series should prove valuable to those interested in seeing exactly what steps and skills go into building a popular kit aircraft. Details on the finished aircraft can be found at the manufacturer's website: Zenithair.com. This kit is easy to build and these construction videos should demonstrate exactly what tools and effort are needed to accomplish this.

wARNING Step by step means by the third episode the effort to document step by step is huge and the series becomes a string of completed plane pieces. I watch these step by steps and they all except the paid versions end the same. Magic it is done.
So excited for this build series! Thank you so much for taking the time and for making it available for free!
That Milwaukee M12 rivet puller is perfect for this job. Looks like tools with batteries are getting superior to many air tools. Good job on this video...I'm pumped for the next installment.
Thanks for the video. Although I do not have plans to build a 750 I do enjoy seeing how other designers have designed an aircraft structure. I look forward to more of these videos.
Thank you very much for your videos. I always watching them with much pleasure. The quality is good and you speak slow and very clearly. That’s is a great advantage for people like me that are not english native speaker .
Finally, a complete video documenting the Zenith SD, I hope.
Thanks for the video.
Currently working on my PPL.
My goal is to build a Zenith kit (650 or 750).
Nice to see a good "hands on" how to video.
I have the plans for a 601HDS somewhere. I would've killed for pre-drilled parts, back when I was actually building it.
Thanks Jon, great timing, I'm just now planning my vacation to go up to Zenith to build the rudder.
The start of a great video series.Thanks for all the work.
I'm looking more toward building a 701, but this is definitely going to be useful! Awesome stuff!
This is going to be FUN!! Thanks for sharing.
Perfect timing, I was looking into buying one.
Yes !!
Thank you Jon,
You da man !!
Excellent video! Just what I was looking for! Thank you
Great work as usual Jon. Thank you
Wondering why the left "z" bar is facing the same way as the right. Looks more like the logical way would be both having soft edges facing in for hatch access having no sharp edges towards the hatch vs left has open side of the "z". Curious about the logic here.
That is beautiful.
Very excellent that this has been started. If anything, it shows how the specific model is put together. I am fascinated that all the holes are pre-drilled to final size. With Vans Aircraft, you have to open up the holes to final size, deburr the holes, dimple the holes, Clayco the holes, and then rivet. Why do they make this so complicated?
Wow thank great job
Thank you
I want to give million likes🤗
Good job Keep it up
Thanks so much
You're the best
Are these in a playlist somewhere?
Aren't you going to do at least the other half of a recent video about building a wood airplane? That would be nice. Thanks
That was great although I know this is coming from your Series on the 750 I really appreciate you doing this are you going to release one every week? I have been enjoying all your Videos and will continue to follow your build video on the 750.
That was fun!!!! Retirement, here I come.....
I retire one year from the end of this month, Ill be building a SD !!
Wow! This is great! I’m planing to build a 750SD, starting later this year. This will be amazing help. I assume you will be putting out a DVD series on this build. If so, I’ll be the first to order it. (I’m the guy from Israel who has purchased just about every DVD you sell)
Do you prefer the battery powered rivet puller to a pneumatic one? If so, why?
It would be interesting to know in this video and future videos how many hours of actual build time actually occurred.
a lot a very lot est 2000 hours total time
Hi Jon, great video. Do you use PRC at all in between overlapping skins?
Where a angle overlaps a angle, would it be good to put a joggle in the end of the overlaping angle so that the bottom sheet would not have an offset in it and be flat? The same question relates to the large angles in the front of the bottom? Thanks
No primer between pieces? Is that only needed if you don't put the plane in a hangar?
What brand is the rivet puller attachment you are using? Thanks for the video.
Is that some kind of a riveting attachment to a regular drill or is it cordless riveter?
I noticed you didn't mention de-burring the holes. Is that not needed with this new kit? Or did you do them off camera first?
Good observation. Yes, deburring is important and outlined in the builder's manual. Usually, do not show this on video, should have mentioned!
I am supersized there is no pre-assembly anti-corrosion preparation of the touching surfaces prior to mating. If this was a wooden boat one would certainly do so. Is it not MORE important on an aircraft?
Are plans available for building from scratch as in make all the components for the aircraft instead of purchasing the kit ?
should I get the 701 or the 750
Maybe an ignorant question but, shouldn't the Z-channels on each side of the access hole be MIRROR imaged instead of facing the same direction?
The correct answer is: whatever the plans say! I do not have the plans available so I cannot say whether it is in fact installed correctly or not. Structurally it makes no difference. I always advise builders to follow their plans and NOT the video when building! Another big problem is that as time passes, changes and enhancements in the plans can create more discrepancies between the video and most recent plans.
The video is amazing but the cadence of your speaking . . . omg
HAHA. I see you read what one wrote about how you speak slowly as if you are talking to a bunch of school kids.well,I think your speed is just fine. I enjoy your videos very much. But everything you talk about is about riveting and such.Not everyone is doing this kind of kit. I plan on building a steel tube frame. Got anything on that? are both your "s" channels suppose to be facing the same way?
