    Have them on my aircraft now, I fitted them on my last 912 powered aircraft also. Work fine, less expensive, programmable ignition curve.

    Wow 2 x 750ah ?!!!...I didnt know you could even get that high a capacity 12v battery outside of some sort of industrial use...what electrical things were you running in your camper SS? (Im imagining a mahoosive killowatt sound system with killer bass bins😁)

    I tried to tell him he needed to slow down and that bet he could beat a 120lb roo in a kickboxing match wasnt going to end well.... Get well soon Nev

    I dont think you need to remove the ad, It just needed an explanation for the condition which have now provided. good luck with it

    That black and silver Waco is absolutely Gorgeous

    Decades, but I helped out a mate with a KTM freeride last month, I'm au fait with current stuff, it's got better but still stinky Never really stopped running and riding the things. But I've not owned a 2 stroke bike for about 4 years As for climate change ill just leave you with the suggestion to investigate the rate of change in relation to pre industrial instances and leave it at that.

    I spent a big part of my early years maintaining and tuning 2 stroke off road Motorcycle and I still love em but they really are messy stinky orrible things, claiming a political agenda against them is a bit of a stretch I think unless you buy into the whole pollution = climate change denial thing

    Dont they have a 500ft ruling over there? I notice another one of their videos ends with the words "everyone's a Pilot" ........ Pillock more like

    I've used this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/Garmin-Charger-iPhone-Smartphones-Tablets-Black/dp/B00EKFH2VG It seemed pretty clean, dont remember interference from it, as bloke above alludes many are noisey as feck I use a Charge4 unit wired direct to 12v now

    As an aside, If you've never read it I can heartily recommend "Propellerhead".... the story of a Brit (Pommy B*****d) learning to fly in a Thrasher😁

    I agree that is best practice and already provided with the Carmo, did you end up with the case grounded anyway just because its easier to mount to something metal thats probably grounded itself and adds some heatsinking?
  14. Red
    Carmo reg has a negative lead

    Nice, theres one like that exept with a jab engine in the Hanger I share. I've noticed he always wheels in on, never seen him 3 point, is this the preferred method for the thrasher?
  16. Red
    "The engine is brand new, only run for a minute or so to verify starting etc" Think it might help to explain the corrosion No offence but I doubt many people would buy an engine described as brand new but looking like its been left outside in the rain for weeks

    Yea I've heard they arn't exactly nice handling but Id still like to ave a go. as for the PA20 with tailgear not being any more short field capable, well maybe not performance figures wise but there are other consideration in some of the rougher land outs I've only flown the 2 seater vagabond though.

    Danny I just got a carmo reg/rec.....did you ground the case?, the accompanying drawing shows no ground connection to case which tbh would make things difficult mounting wise, I'll give carmo a call on monday but saw you mention them and thought worth an ask

    Oooo a Dromader..nice That Piper Pacer is an odd one, it actually started life as a Tripacer I assume someone with a bit of sense bought it and converted it into the superior layout

    ?

    I dunno, Ive a lot of experience of 2 stroke motorcycle engines but only had a couple of rotax 503s and zero experience of this engine Have to say the figures sound great and quite plausible untill you get to the TBO, has anyone actually done 1000 hours on the same crank and main bearings on this engine?
  22. Red
    Damn thats not good at all, add to that the muscle loss and cardio vascular problems from lack of activity and low gravity which I'm sure they will be substantial due to lessening motivation for exercise and morale as time goes by and it will be quite a trial for them. Only upside is It will give the scientists a good bit of data for planning a mars mission I bet they hate each other by the time they get back down to earth and will be very reluctant to repeat the experience, poor sods
  23. Red
    ??..The whole aircraft?
  24. Red
    Oo thanks, much heavier than I thought
  25. Red
    I expect if you nip down to your local Computer store (if you have one) you'd get a small tube for a reasonable price
