    Hello Danny, I just bought a Carmo Reg/rec and notice the wiring diagram omits a capacitor, did you fit one anyway?

    Does anyone know if you can connect a MAP sensor to an MGL RDAC VD?

    Its standard practice to have a few Lawyers proof read everything before it goes out, do they still have the disclaimer on uncertified (UL/ULS) engine's manuals saying something like 'this engine can stop at any time'?

    I've yet to meet anyone with experience of these Engines and as others have mentioned, it will be in the field experince over a good sized user base that will ultimately determine the success or lack of for any Product. There may still be a sizeable market for use of this catagory of engines in Drones that could be leveraged. Regarding Sub-ing out stuff leading to quality drops: Rotax has always subbed out its 912 Cylinder production I think it would be very hard to find an Engine manufacturer that doesnt do something similar , Pistons for example are routinely sourced elsewhere. The perception that Chinese = poor quality has a sound base, my experience is that China whilst perfectly happy to churn out garbage is also very capable of high quality production when it is demanded.

    Did they not evacuate pax as soon as safely stopped?, appreciate its a balance between how much danger is perceived on leaving them onboard compared with possibility of injury on evac.

    Bladder type ferry tanks are certificated for that purpose not the same for a couple of jery cans though. Many people do it though including myself.

    I often travel with 2 x 10 litre plastic fuel cans strapped down in the cockpit, I fill them leaving a small air pocket then compress the cans with my knees till fuel is nearly at top and seal the screw tops Not advising anyone to do this, but my aircraft's main fuel tanks are 2 x 30 litre plastic containers placed directly behind the 2 seats. I worry more about the 2 fitted tanks than the spare fuel cans. P.S. I believe its actually Illegal
