ctdaily1 Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 Here is a really great presentation to an EAA chapter about their engines...
ctdaily1 Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 And here is another interesting presentation...I am seriously considering putting one of their engines in a Just Aircraft SuperSTOL XL
AeroMomentum Aust Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Hi all! We thought that we'd chime in here and just tell you all that we are the agents in Australia if anyone has questions or wants to view / experience an AM engine! There's three shipping now to Australia and they will all be running soon on Zenith's and RV's. Just returned from Florida where they are made and spent a lot of time with Mark, Lily and the team. The engines sound and look amazing (watched an Australia-bound AM15 being tested / Dyno) . Very cheap to operate, weights are very good and reliability is proven both on and off aircraft around the world. Current 2019 prices can be found on our website. We will be exhibiting at Avalon March 1-4 2019 and we are happy to field your calls or emails at [email protected]. Website for Australia is www.aeromomentum.com.au! Many thanks for your interest. 1
Kyle Communications Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 There is a lot of questions being asked of all the auto engine conversion guys and no one seems to want to answer the question completely. What is the installed weight?????? Now this means oil cooler, radiator, exhaust AND all the fluids.....this seems to be like asking a politican any question here in OZ....They say a answer but its not the real answer The Viking I have seen hanging on a scales and it was 220 lb and that was bare...nothing of on the above was on the engine 1
Downunder Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Welcome to the forum AMA....... can be a tough crowd at times. Look forward to hearing about Aeromomentum engine. They look like one of the better conversion engines. Good Luck!
AeroMomentum Aust Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Thank you! BTW the weights are published on our site are actual including exhaust etc but there’s real life video on our site of a customer receiving the engine and weighing it. https://www.aeromomentum.com.au/aeromomentum-videos
Kyle Communications Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Thank you! BTW the weights are published on our site are actual including exhaust etc but there’s real life video on our site of a customer receiving the engine and weighing it. https://www.aeromomentum.com.au/aeromomentum-videos Thats 198 lbs and no oil cooler or pipes and no radiator and mounts or pipes and mounts and bare minimum oil and water...one would think at least another 20 lbs so installed weight around 100kg so maybe 20lbs or a bit more lighter than a Viking..then of course you have 2 pumps for the injection etc
eightyknots Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 On 18/01/2019 at 9:53 AM, johnm said: According to the above chart, the AM13 is just 5 lb (2.2 kg) heavier than the 100 hp Rotax 912. I wonder if Aeromomentum Australia could confirm this?
kasper Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 You might be waiting quite a while for a response ... Aeromomentuc.com.au is not more as a website Aeromomentum Australia was part of Man Aerospace Pty Ltd Man Aerospace Pty Ltd requested ASIC that they be deregistered in Feb 2021 On this basis I think aeromomentum queries need to go back to the USA ...
kgwilson Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 Published weight should include everything required for the engine to run and power the aircraft successfully other than the battery, solenoid and regulator and electrical connections in my opinion. The same goes for price. You just can not believe anything published until you add all the extras and the variability in using such comparison charts without this data makes this information useless. 2
