Thanks; that's great. The CZ Republic seem to be really ahead of the curve. A type approval test pilot also pointed out the stall recovery disadvantages of a raised H stab being less/non useful with
Finally threw some rolls of door seal into the truck and went to the field with no idea what the result would be. The original seals were starting to look a bit hagged and the hatches were a little t
This was a really interesting video to watch. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lE6Y37GPQqY Edge Performance dyno test of a stick Rotax 914 with results. It would appear that running the 914 at 5500rpm a
Thought it was interesting re' how the ECU bleeds off boost as IAT increases. Wondering if this is experienced by end users not running intercooler. Also provides turbo timing data. Didn't know about
It's highly probable the manifold graph referred to in fig 6, p76, is referencing the max MAP baseline which drops dramatically at engine startup. The wastgate rests at full open position when the en
In that case the Wastegate switch referred to above is the TCU switch component, and the Nominal Airbox pressure (2atm) would be residual from the compressor function at 1600rpm-2000rpm. As soon as t

That's sound advise; just set it all up as factory advise, and just fly the plane and let the computer do the rest. Guess what? It will work as required Personally, my view toward turbo charging is n

Don't know enough about the technicals on the paint system to comment on the seven day window but sounds like an adhesion bonding factor; some systems give you a 12hr window, some 21 days... There ar

All valid and wise... It's an aircraft, not a static show pony at the hotrod meet where guys debate near useless aspects of OCD cosmetic indulgence found nowhere else except in the fashion industry.

Wing tips. The bits on the end of the wing. The tips that arguably are hotly contested at all points of pilots meeting and talking about aeroplanes. The bits that cannot be improved upon. The bits t
Some additional supporting images showing employment of a similar version of the EL500 style wing tip on a Bushcat STOL aircraft. Again something similar also found on a Globe Swift. Notice the lead
