Damien Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 (edited) My Thruster I found in a shed and restored I love reading and flying this it is what flying should be about anyone replaced the old analog rpm with a digital meter? 6f298715-a9d3-4678-86bf-ffb8a5c5f99a.mp4 a5439fc3-fdd2-475b-beb2-d12e51573dc2.mov Edited June 8 by Damien 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Should be easy to get. They take the signal from a plug lead. No metal contact needed. The Thruster looks good. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are great fun, safe aircraft. I may or may not be be the stuart referred to above. The tiny tach works well if the rotax 582 tacho has failed. This is usually due to the resistor on the tacho coil of the stator failing. Join and make a post on our Facebook group "thruster flyers down under" about your Thruster. message me here if you have any questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
