  1. I thought those conversions had a tooth belt reduction drive.
  2. Had a look at the spacek after you mentioned it. Very nice looking plane.
  3. You are too serious 😁. take a chill pill.
  4. you seem to dislike kawasaki almost as much as facthunter despises rotax
  5. If you watch the video at the start they talk about this and how Kawasaki aviation was the fore runner to Kawasaki motorcycles.
  6. No. I am not confusing Mitsubishi and Kawasaki. Did I say they would use belts. Maybe Kawasaki should get in touch , you could advise them on what they should do 😁
  7. Look up Kawasaki. They have produced a lot of fw military aircraft from WW2 onwards and don't forget Kawasaki helicopters. The standard engine on a lot of ultralights years ago was the Kawasaki 440 with belt drive reduction.
  8. Kawasaki are one of the largest aircraft manufacturers in the world so they certainly have the experience and expertise to produce an excellent engine.
  9. Have you flown in a Rotax powered plane . As red said they are quieter than conventional aero engines.
  10. Good silencers fix that.
  11. . yamaha phasers getting used in stol planes run to 10,000 rpm. kawasaki stuff is high quality.
  12. what about rollo the aeropup man in queensland. don't know if aeropup will be the same but he might have access to a supplier.
  13. they also dropped the 2 stroke endorsement without sending any info out. i guess they will bring it up with people if it affects their application . why don't you log into the raaus portal and see what you can find. all raaus members have access to it.
  14. you must be hard up for avatar photos😁
  15. this change was emailed out 2 days before i said anything. i assume if its important enough they would email all members or list in the news section of the portal.
  16. it was aimed at turbo. calling me a nutter, he knows nothing about what i posted. my info came from the head man himself, db. if i posted something random i heard i would have called it a rumour.
  17. do what you want . better off not posting anything. sick of getting attacked by forced induction who contributes jack shit except for made up legal rubbish.
  18. what are you going on about you wonderful human, sick to death of being run down by you. whats the nutty thread .
  19. You bring this up a lot. Can you stop please. Or put it on someone else's thread.
  20. I understand where you are coming from but what they are implementing is a good thing for raaus members who have that category. Like the gazelle that just got approved. He was up for a new engine because wal won't rebuild pre 2006 crankcases. Or he had to do an annual marap. His engine was rebuilt 300 hrs ago by a lame but without a Rotax certificate . The storch I was talking about has a very well documented history and it has only done 500 hrs . Runs like new. There was a 912 uls advertised the other day with 2000 hrs and it was a 2022 year. A private person could fit that engine and be trouble free for the next 20 years.
  21. They might be working on 23 as well but as far as I know they only got 24 approved by casa this time.
  22. I only posted a new development for 24 reg aircraft, no need for negativity.
  23. I only know what's been done for 24 reg. Nothing else
  24. What are you talking about
