Blueadventures

Have read those test results, I respect his efforts; however I'm in disagreement as the E-Prop is giving 6 to 8 knots better WOT performance and increased speed at rpm settings and better economy from my flying seat in the Nynja. With Pitch setting although not at best getting 108 kts and in UK achieving 113 Kts under a strict, planned test regime. The prop shape works the air different and I had to adjust rudder trim as soon as prop fitted and very noticeable taxi speed at idle as have to brake slightly now. As time and some long trips are made I will be able to look back over my fuel usage figures. At this point I am very very happy with the prop. Have also flown the 4 blade version on a Skyranger for about 3 hours and very good also. There is a demo one 3 blade available at times from Mark Kyle so worth a try and make your own observations.

Only lifting one wheel.

Yes.

When E-Props have sorted a direct drive prop suitable for Jabs; I recon they will make available 1 or 2 demo props and they will promote them to purchasers if there other props are an indication of their quality and performance.

The Anson jacks are 0.5kg and if solo can lift wheel to change with ease. If 2 up yes can lift wing and find blocks or rocks to keep up if needed. For me a small price and ready to do an 'F1' pit stop tyre change:)

Just need to make own decisions on equipment. For example I carry a spare for both bing carb springs (throttle and enricher) two float bowl gaskets, two spark plugs, a 25mm hose joiner and some short hose and clamps. As don't want the inconvenience of loosing a small part in the field. Also a mr Funnel is on board as all my refuelling is via a mr funnel.

In the picture it looks like Nic has left fitting the under wing skin for you to fit 🙂

Agree, that 's what I do now that the plan ran out early. Put money saved into fuel budget.

I carry both spare tubes and tube foam repair canister. A mate has used this product a few times and works well. I have not used it myself to date.

All good, re tubes call Wagga Bike and tyres and Fred will give you his knowledge and you will be be able to select a suitable tube.

Sorry don't like the tail plane shape; looks wrong.

They have 40 fitted or being fitted and another 10 coming soon, I hope to get one of those 10 and if not one out of the next batch. They have progressed at a steady rate in case some more refinement is needed. They are working on 50 litre wing tanks similar to what we do. One thing that is certain is that they fully test and test fly their products and developments so are good when available.

Not sure what neck is. My tubes are 0.25 kg each, I also carry puncture repair patches and some spare valves and the screw in tool. Nothing better than a new tube if you get a flat. Jack is 0.5kg from memory. Full tools and spares is 4kg. need to be self sufficient if out land solo. Also carry a mr funnel for refuelling 0.3kg. I weighed all my bits when doing my recent w&b. There is an image in New Nynja to area thread (page 12) cost $80 but well made and light (Google up Peter Anson engineering. Good value.).

Yep, email gives time to word a reply, plus get a written reply to a written question. With an email in the system you can then phone up about when the answer can be expected. Tech is busy and helpful.

I carry one and sometimes two spare tubes, jack to lift wheel off ground, pump and the tools to remove the wheel plus one or two tube tyre foam inflator packs.

Hi RF; most likely a silly comment, could you attach / weld four new engine mount bolt tubes (L2, L3) aft and higher /lower as required for your 'x' orientation. You may be able to relieve enough metal to place the tubes and weld onto the ring mount. May be ok to leave the more forward L2&3 bolt tube insitu. Would be easier than jigging up to have the engine 24mm more aft. Cheers and enjoying your work / design.

Send Tech the question in an email.

Just looking on Ozrunway at the tip of Queensland as some mates posted on faceb that Bamaga has poor rainy weather. Fist time I have seen the main reginal airports coloured as to there weather status. At a glance could get an indication of what airports were marginal VFR (yellow), IFR conditions (Orange) and clear etc. A good additional feature.

Nice Mark, you will enjoy the first fly in her. Cheers.

for over water I'd upspec to an EPIRB.

Nice classic lines.

Hi T88 What do you recon if we set up a thread where by incidents are posted and findings discovered by the washup including RAA feedback are posted by the persons or persons involved. For example I had an exhaust header touch a coolant hose on a R912 and did a precautionary landing and then fixed the issue with great assistance and was then back on my way. I post the report and outcome lesson learnt tomorrow or next day. Today is my birthday, another one down, just back from Top Gun Maverick' and out to dinner with friends; then a full day tomorrow with out of town visitors. Such may be a way of getting learning out amongst us. Would not like any thread to get off topic. Cheers.

Re reports more substance needed to share unwanted experiences and failures.
