Incidentaly, it is kept in the hangar where our beloved Bantam is born. At Max Clear's facility. I'm sharing my space there with all the Bantams Watching Bantams being born is a wonderful thing
Guest Chainsaw Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Good stuff Daz! Love your bird. The mower looks good too, but that chair....I wouldn't sit on that thing, your bird would be far safer!
Guest Michael Coates Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Verrrry bizare, its a tractor engine but its a pusher propeller ?? Lots more moving parts!
Guest Darren Masters Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 It is indeed Michael. It has a drive-shaft with 3 bearings. Runs wonderfully. Got some fast taxiis/circuits in today. Was hardly any wind down at Te Kowhai. Flies beautifully. Most happy. Here is a pic I snapped
Guest OzChris Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 Great stuff Darren :) Looks AWESOME!!
