Default Silly Question

So sorry to waste an entire thread with such a silly question, but couldn't find the answer.

I have converted my C2 to a fixed wing. At speed i get a fault on the dash presumably resulting from the system thinking the wing / motor is still there. What's the easiest way to resolve this?

Either force the up micro switch closed or remove the control unit ( and emergency control unit depending on the year) it's either under the seat or under the dash

Or you can jump with a wire in the rear (by the oil filter) assembly...There is a small round assembly (plug) that can be opened to bypass the warning light.

Dumb question of the day

During my last oil change I over filled by a quart. Gage on dash is reading at the top, haven't checked the dip stick to see how high its reading yet.

So, should I be worried and drain some oil out or just let go?

If I drain the the case how much oil would drain?

Any other advice?....

^^^ Get a small liquid transfer hand pump from HF or any other store, stick the tube down the oil fill neck with the other end in a catch bottle, pump oil out until you are satisfied with the level.
