Some folks have installed a fan or fans under the canopy skin and cut some holes or
slots to provide air flow for defogging the inside of the canopy. I don't know if I'll
actually use a fan (or fans) yet, but I decided to include the accomodation for them. Note,
most folks install the fans through the canopy skin aft of where this brace attaches.
I looked at some photos of where the canopy attaches to the canopy skin and I believe I can
install the fans in this canopy brace, then let volume trapped in the canopy brace
act like a manifold and vent up along the inside of the canopy
First step was to choose a fan. I chose a Sanyo fan, the part number of which is written on
the center brace. It is a 60mm square fan, runs on 12 VDC, and has a locked rotor sensor.
They go for ~$12 on Digikey. I'll probably order one or three when I place my next order
with Digikey. Anyway, after choosing an appropriate fan, I laid out the mounting hole
locations.
