    Hi spotty dog here I have just bought a lithium battery for my 912 and one for my bike a suzuki gsxf 750, all the other betteries were just too heavy , I had odyssey betteries before and swear by them but when it came to the plane an odyessy was 4.5 kg and the li motorcell was 1 kg, when I saw it I thought it was a plastic on counter advertising unit but NO it was real . I tried the the battery in the bike first , always needed choke , this little battery the size of two packets of fags ( no I'm not a smoker ) but turns the engine over so fast I never use choke now. I am in the process of building so the wiring is at the final stage of completion and I fitted a prop just to wind the engine over and prime the lubrication system, ,it turns the engine over just as good as the odyssey if not better with 340 caa, will recharge in ( 6 minutes from flat to 90% and will do this 2000 time / cycles and has a two year warranty for $100 less than a odyssey which gave me zero warranty on my last one what threw the towel in at less than 200 hours less than one year. They are guaranteed against fire, what more can I say , I'm happy . Ian

    Hi Mark thought you had fallen of the face off the earth, hope the pitot cover is still working, are you going to bulldust castle on the 9th, anyway seems like you have a handle on the public service, what I want to know is who , how and where is all the information that was handed in when the aircraft was first registered, with the last aircraft I submitted it twice with two lots of photos and they were missing only two month ago?????. cheers catch you for a beer . spottydog

    Hi yes I am building no.3 Sav - had the original model with slats (then took them off and redid the leading edge), the XL and now the S. They are ideal for our rough short strips in country nsw. I hope to keep this one for quite some time as it has lots of' 'toys'in it! who knows what great planes the future brings for us. spottydog
