Maybe a little drift from the thread, but here is the anticipated change in fuel quality for Australia. Of course Australia now imports the majority of our finished fuels which may or may not exceed this standard already.

“all our Mogas fuels have too much sulphur” Hopefully that will change on December 15 this year.

Yeah, I had a go with glue and tape, but sadly it didn’t last long. I’ve got a really tight hose clamp over the crack now, but that probably just hides it.😏

I have one of these if that helps, but it is constructed of aluminium, not steel…….and it has a crack on the bend of the handle. It appears this point is where all of the ‘flex’ force becomes focussed when the wheel attachment points are opened out, and ultimately fails. It’s a pity - the lightweight is great, but trying to repair thin aluminium tubing is a tad tricky.

Thanks for the heads-up Garfly. Nicely produced vids.😎

Kanardia ?

Mr Sheen has been used a lot on aircraft windscreens, but prolonged use (years) on some grades of Perspex will eventually make it dull. Mr Sheen contains paraffins and uses a butane propellant.

Perspex windscreens ? dilute baby shampoo mixed up in a trigger spray bottle, wipe off with a microfibre cloth. Baby shampoo is a low foaming detergent (not soap) …..and gentle on your baby !

RFG - how do you interpret this marketing gumpf ? Is this ‘battery management system’ there just to protect the battery, with no downstream consideration to the aircraft electrics / avionics if the battery decides to suddenly ‘protect’ itself ? Interested to hear your thoughts on this. LiPO4 battery technologies clearly have some pros, but good to know the cons as well.

Johnson’s baby shampoo ?
