Brief Description:  Fuel calibration 2

I removed 13 gallons of fuel from each wing tank but did so at 1 gallon at a time so that I could use a dip stick to measure at each gallon removed.I would like to have a easy method of fuel level without turning on the Dynon, I picked 8 gal per side to keep it at for the first flight. The picture below shows 10 gallons per side but the fuel computer shows 16 total. Why? Becuase I calibrated with tail up in level flight. When I lower the tail back down, the fuel levels drop 2 gal each side! The fuel meter does not measure of the floats though. Ypu tell it how much gas was added and it keeps track of total remaining after it goes thru the fuel meter (red cube)
Ill probably check the filters before first flight but this is where I leave it for the DAR for now.
I will also mention that I have not seen any signs of any fuel leaks.

I received my Bill of sale from Vans today so now I can get the registration application off to the FAA.
