Then again . My Hummel-Bird doesn't fit " 95-10-1103 '' category either. It's wings are too small . Even through it was a " registered " aircraft . ( under AUF ) . V H experimental, or back to RAAus as a new registration , ' 95-19-whatever ' . I would swap for a ' 103 ' aircraft . To get away from " them who like to be gods ". spacesailor

Maintenance. IF , you can fly with two cylinders. Your Maintenance is minimal. But . Electric is better. Maintenance is less than minimal. spacesailor

Lugging fuel to your deserted airfield……
spacesailor replied to Freizeitpilot's topic in AUS/NZ General Discussion
Tried that ! . It was advertised as an " Advanced driving course " . but, It turned out to be the opposite. No spinning around to escape . ( as opposed to the normal 3 point turn ) . Reverse is a faster geat than first. So, speed away in Reverse. neutral, turn a little , Hand brake . Spin the front, opposite lock ,3 rd gear. & speed away . It was Just , ' drive slow & be aware of dogs and old people ' . spacesailor -
I like the 'Dovetail ' but it is a " turboprop " . spacesailor

Using old language. 100 Ah " lithium battery " powering a 40 hp motor . That is what ultralight aircraft need . They were the forefront of flying for many decade's. The Hummel-Bird looks a great candidate for a new EV modification. but with it's 6 ltrs p hour . Not many will bother converting . spacesailor

" the above does not allow for aggressive ( illegal )behaviour " . You wrote it yourself . & there's the problem. Especially Those new racing drivers , with their new Ps . TheY also enjoy those " Driver Annoying Devices " . That are bad for ( miss Daisy ( Driving miss Daisy)) . Old or inferm with aching bones , being shaken around . spacesailor -

The" stupidity " of the ' new ' rule is the car not yet " in the roundabout " can speed- up " & cut you off as you enter . He's breaking the speed limit . But your in the wrong . That I had to see if it's true. ' no. more give way to your right ' First in best dressed . spacesailor -
My ' mobility scooter ' has two 40 ah lead acid batteries. That cost more than a 100 ah marine battery . More importantly is the fact that an empty battery weighs almost the same as a full one , so , the aircraft doesn't go out of balance like my Hummel-Bird. Take off with the ( over your legs ) fuel tnk full , heavy nose . Land with near empty tnk , & tail heavy . Easier to stall in landing configuration. spacesailor
