I don't have mine yet but living 150 kays from the editor doesn't seem to make much difference. We get it late here on the Gold Coast .

Anyone know the "clean" stall speed?

i have a set of W10 plans which state stalling speed with flaps 43kts and stall speed without flaps 49kts @ gross of 646kg (1425lb)

I was looking over a Tailwind this morning which is a regular visitor from Montpelier,beautiful aircraft i love them a bit heavy for RAA though.

Its little sister the Wittman Buttercup would be a perfect fit for RAA http://luceair.com/replica_buttercup.html

Beautiful work Phil,it would almost be a shame to cover it.

G'Day Harry....

Oooh i don't know fellas i can see FD's point i don't think he is criticizing the Jab pilot for doing a go around but for taking so long to initiate it.

The Jab has flown all of final watching a Trojan slowly backtracking towards him. Wouldn't it be better airmanship to initiate a go around sooner rather than later and get a call out in what i would assume to be a busy circuit at an airshow rather than getting his panties up in a bunch and buzzing the Trojan at 50ft?

Hi all,I have been trying to help a fellow flyer with a VW engine. I am having trouble getting the baby to start. Looking for ideas or advice.

 

It's a VW aero conversions.

 

Magneto ignition that has been re-timed. It's a Bendix dual mag D4RN 2021. Has been timed to the K mark and E gap at R which I think is 8 deg BTDC. It has an impulse system to delay 20 Deg to assist with starting.

 

When I check timing on the engine I can adjust it to open points at 8 Degrees BTDC. However the motor will not start. I get the occasional fire but just wont turn over.

 

Any ideas? Does the timing sound correct? Any advice from some that have experience with the VW's or Magneto would be greatly appreciated.

 

Jim Tatlock.

You got me all excited until you said it was attached to an airframe. I wanted to see what 2nd hand low hour 80hp 912's are worth.

He uses a bit of KY jelly around the outside rim

She will be even more concerned if you tell her you are going down to the hangar to experiment to see how much KY you need and how well it works!

Especially when he says he's smearing it around his rim

Just caught the end of it on the news it looked like the Stolp Starlet in the latest mag page 14,it landed with under carriage problems.

jason

That's exactly what they're doing with the new FK51,apparently the thunderous roar of the 912 just wont cut it:blush:

Typical TWO stroke stoppage symptoms. By the time any noises start, it's pretty much all over. I'm not anti two stroke in saying this. They have their place. Good power to weight ratio. Nev

This bloke has done extremely well.

I have been told he is a 30hr student pilot on his second solo. He had to put it in early or he would have cleaned up a heard of cattle and if he had tried to go over the cattle he would of been under power lines.....well done mate:thumb up:
