I use (and sell) the Arplast PV50 - In Flight Adjustable and don't feel any need for Constant Speed. However Arplast are working on a new direct drive model for the Jabiru and similar engines that wi

Last time I had to crimp battery connectors I found an auto electrical guy who crimped them for me. I also wondered about using my cable swaging tool? Jerry

I have my MAC grips wired so that all the actions are activated by grounding a button. The master grounding wire for each grip goes through a switch on the panel. I can therefore de-activate either o

Apart from any structural considerations there is also performance to be considered. I would have thought a 3" increase in fuselage height would have increased drag noticeably. Jerry shell.

Agree with most of that. Ultralight aircraft use reduction drives. For best performance at low speed (and least noise) a large reduction is better. Therefore some good ultralight propellers (Arplast

There is often chat on the group about batteries. We have for sometime sold a 13 amphr high output (400 amp) battery that weights only 4.9 kgs. That battery has now increased in price but the next on

Perhaps you could link a handheld up to your antenna to check it. Problem is a bad antenna can cook the output stage of an icom A3/22 for example. Have you tried an SWR meter on the antenna? I can't

Quite agree. Michel Colomban spent two years developing the engine installation for his Ban-bi. That's probably not as long as he spent on the airframe but none the less if it takes him two years how

I don't agree (but am ready to be proved wrong) The speed of an aircraft is limited by the propeller diameter as a factor of hp and propeller RPM and number of blades. There's two ways of looking at

Given any propeller rpm a large diameter has a higher tip speed and therefore is more noisy. High rotational speeds means the air has to be accelerated quickly to a high speed. That acceleration and
