For the weekend sat-SUNDAY I believe Archer Falls "Fly In - Drive In" this weekend! Great family weekend out. There is plenty to do from seeing some classic aircraft, Hands on Action Flights, and extreme aerobatics flights. Camping and food available. Don't miss out!

Well that's easy! SPORT = an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. RECREATIONAL = relating to or denoting activity done for enjoyment when one is not working. So I guess I'll be both soon? As I have a spot landing comp coming up soon that'll make me a sport pilot to go with my usual recreational piloting... All done in a 95.10 mtow 300 kgs .. 50 kt max cruise . So sport pilot or rec pilot refers to piloting ?Not plane right? As that's a whole new thread ;)

This is a bit out there but, what fuel filter/filters do you use? 2st motorbike or paper like a z14? Oh and do you have a fuel pressure gauge? Also Do you have an auxiliary fuel pump fitted? Clutching at straws here No wuggers
-
All perfect... So now IDE be ruling out engine and look at fuel system, electrics. If prop change doesn't do any thing. It has to be fuel system or electrics surely? Real head scratcher
-
Yes correct what goes through the engine is a lean fuel mix or oil rich mix , I should have been clearer sorry :). " a rich OIL. Mix" lol. Resulting In a lean fuel intake ....
-
Did you rebuild bottom end ? And was crank replaced or checked ? All seals replaced? Did you run it in per rotax specs ( takes an hour) and note all temps etc... Also just as important as correct warm up is the cool down . Here's my 503 -run in specs...( no cht on the nieuport ) Also the same for my 582... I have been a 2stroke mechanic( mainly moto x works machines) for 26 years now, never come across an intermittent RPM rise of that calibre due to outside temp?...Have had loss of RPM intermittent .. Turned out dad and son mixed fuel different, dad added extra100 mls to jerry can making a strong rich mix, lol. What oil do you use and have you changed oil brands? Did you fit piston per specs or by replacing it as it came out of engine? I ask as I had an apprentice once who removed a piston and refitted by noting the old piston position , however the old piston was backwards ( arrow pointing back) yes it made another mess of the customers kx 250 requiring another full top end replacement including the kawasaki power valve. Grrrr cost me $$$$$ What spark plugs are you using? No worries The More info the better :) Good luck
-
It's the rings that grab usually from wear and jumping there locater The exhaust is a tuned pipe designed to block the exhaust outlet with sound waves for power band,Extra oil in the mix will give it a rich mixture throughout.( makes it little sluggish) Temperature shouldn't affect the rpm much . Atmosphere will but only slightly... Is your 503 points or cdi? Dual or single carbie? 2 air filters or 1? And the big question. Do you have a tiny tach fitted or can you borrow one to confirm it's not a gauge issue? Sorry if already posted? It's very strange . Would then look at prop... Good luck keep us posted Tim

Hey everyone, been a bit quite as I've been busy... Have just finished my original music Album and began on a new project . A huge project ;). Have another plane that I'm beginning to rebuild ( mk3 invader Motor Glider ) and hope to pick up Black Betty in coming months ( yes still have the lighty and Nieupy). I have a new shipment of books also ( on sale at moment pm me for Details) New project refers to thread ;). I'll say no more on that one.. Also involved in a documentary following a socially and financially challenged young man ( 25 yo) following his dream of obtaining his Rec Cert... I will be at Nhill Airshow 10 oct in lightwing. And ( CASA approval pending) will be doing a Display in my Nieuport with the Tiger Moths at James Town Airshow oct 18. Fun :)
