    Understand; however that is what I desire and believe there would be others out there in the aviation market sector. Could be retro fit to the existing 230 fuses. Not everyone wants to travel vast distances; just operate within say up to 3 hours and carry 5 plus hours of fuel. IMHO.

    Agree; as I have said a few times I would like to see an option of a slower wing that would allow the average low hour pilot to get out with a shorter ground run and slower stall speed and therefore less float so land much shorter. Give their aero engineers a challenge. Cheers

    POH from factory for info, flight-manual-atec-322-faeta.pdf

    This is one of the very best events ever. Just up the road (airtime) from you. "The Old Sation Flyin" May 2024. See you there.

    Re push pull cables; my recommendation to all is to buy only genuine replacements; not knock offs. Because I have investigated the failure of an inner wire that was a full break and the cable was a non-genuine (Engine control of a 32 meter tug boat). Metallurgy testing found a high level of a certain mineral that was a cause of the failure. Such a break failure would not be good; with wire cable you have a chance of seeing progression of degrading of the cable.

    Have you seen the one in classifieds?

    Maybe engines cheapish. Currently 2/3 Rotax price and used to be about 1/2.

    A newer model main gear one piece leg has been fitted to ‘Spirit of Kittyhawk’ and Ben flew her today and likes the feel of it. A full upgrade to 600 kg will be completed in the future, just awaiting some parts from the factory and the sign off for RAA w&b ratings.

    Also, gliders can be slower in their circuit all the way at 40mor 45 knots so the drop is a little more noticeable and not able to add speed with an engine only by lowering the nose; which may not be good at times.

    Hi IBob I learnt about that in gliding. When turning in the circuit the air speed on the ASI would drop a little. Had to keep the screen view attitude; and don't stick the nose down to bring the ASI up as you would be over the desired speed when out of the turn. The air flow at an angle across the pitot tube caused the situation.

    Take some TimTams as well for any necessary chocolate fix’s.

    Nice, recon you will have parts in 6 or 7 days.

    About 6 years ago I had a faulty pressure gauge and emailed the company about it. Roberto the owner was most helpful and advised trouble shooting info. Should still be around so I’d send an email asking about the issue. Put as much info about the issue so he is in best position to make any comments. It was excellent after sales service.

    For info these use DOT4 fluid

    Hi Guy that is different to to one I have in my 2012 model Nynja kit. Can you sleve yours to the id if the later kits. Sounds like 12.6mm as that would allow using the available piston kit. Best also to check actual bore size. I’m away for next two weeks or more so unable to measure mine. Maybe ask Greg R. Cheers

    Unconfirmed tug took out jab wing tip. Best await better update.

    Multiple fatalities reported unfortunately; occurred about 1034hrs. Terrible news. Condolences to families and all involved.

    If longeron is rusted that would not assist airframe staying intact.

    Can look up Fire wall boot making on Kitplanes; they show a way to make up a silicone impregnated fibreglass mat boot and alloy bracket for fire walls. May suit your build.
  23. Blueadventures
    Recall a method shown in Kitplanes within last two years.

    Mostly lazy I recon. Plus, any fuel leak, e.g. carb bowl overflow, would do wonders for the windscreen. For me; better viewing muted.
  25. Blueadventures
    Yes, will. I’m running 8mm barb tails.
