If you don't have an engine yet for your project, consider this: At Sun 'n Fun, I talked with Gunter Rund, an Auto Gyro owner, using Jason Parker's fuel injected Rotax 914 with intercooler. He is ent
Craig, Not for aircraft. Just the auto gyro which is running at normal 5-7 gph depending on throttle setting. What we high speed aircraft are looking for, is savings at altitude where the Bing really
Paul, Curtis, Frans, and others, Jason was raised as a car guy and now is becoming a pilot... His experience with the Predator drone is where I found him. Yes it has been an uphill battle getting him
Frans, Your concern was the first thing I worked on with Jason. The fuel comes in and is under pressure through the manifold then to the regulator just like a car. Any air passes through so quickly a
Frans, Yes it is wonky, and it is not your fault. I've done probably 5 sets and helped three or four customer and they are all the same. Bad plug made from someone elses' bad mould? (It appears subco

Frans, Most of the time in a situation like yours, I add glass to the front cover gap, tape it in place on the rear pant where it looks good and fits without flexing (with release tape of course) and

Sorry for being so busy lately, I missed your problem. I too had a similar problem on the old classic. I had it checked at a radiator shop and all was well. I will fly it, but if it fails, I found th
Karl, The roll rate on the MG is a bit disappointing to me as a short wing flier so I go for the maximum. In the event you need it during a wake turbulence recovery or near miss, it's imperative to h

Not to differ Frans, but to comment. The differential is absolutely necessary, but I do the math to check MP vs Fuel Pressure, it keeps me alert. I don't fly above 10,000 so it rarely matters in my t
