  1. I see Narva have a duel outlet 2.5 amp each outlet you would hope to be reasonable quality compared to what you see on eBay etc, any thing you go to buy and mention it’s for aviation the price is always dearer maybe they think you have to be rich to own a plane, don’t know were I went wrong
  2. I did by a genuine cable from apple as they were the only ones that had a half metre cable that I wanted, I might try spraying some contact cleaner in the usb outlet but I can’t see that being the problem as it’s mounted underneath the panel where the old power outlet was
  3. I agree with Earl my 230 is a great plane to fly, good cruise speed and economical, my 160 was a good plane to fly as well but I prefer the 230.
  4. No I tried a different lead still the same
  5. some won’t charge an iPad , I think a phone only needs a 1 amp charger but an iPad needs 2.1-2.5 amps to charge , when my power outlet broke I replaced it with a usb outlet but it would only charge a phone I went to jaycar and told them my problem and they sold me the outlet which I have now that worked fine till about 2 months ago and now it doesn’t charge
  6. A while ago I fitted a usb outlet into the panel of my J230 Jabiru to keep my iPad charged as I’m flying, I bought it from jaycar and it worked fine for a while but now it doesn’t charge although the charge icon on the iPad screen is green, can anybody recommend a good replacement thanks Keith.
  7. There’s a sky fox with a trailer for sale in the Raa classifieds maybe the guy would send you some pictures, I did build an open trailer for my gazelle but only used to trailer it to the airport and back about 8 kms each way
  8. Thanks for the advice but to make the harness is a bit beyond my capabilities that’s why I’m chasing somebody to make me one thanks Keith.
  9. I have the standard Jabiru intercom, had the same in my 160 and it worked fine, it had 2 Becker radios would you be able to make me a harness thanks Keith.
  10. In my j230 I have a Filser ATR 500 radio, I have been given another one the same but I need someone to make me a harness with a switch where I can monitor both radios and transmit on the one it is switched to, should I go this way or am I better of to get something like RF Guys radio that monitors multiple channels, thanks Keith.
  11. Thanks Neil
  12. Bloody spell check should be your aircraft
  13. What’s involved in changing horror aircraft to E24 and what’s the cost thanks Keith.
  14. From what I understand could be wrong, my mate is more looking for somewhere he can take the plane get the engine done and pick it up when it’s finished
  15. Jabiru are only doing gen 4 engines atm that’s why I’m asking
  16. A mate of mine has 40 hours to fly on his 3300 till a top end overhaul, can anybody recommend where to get it done, before all the bullshit comments start the engine hasn’t missed a beat in 960 hours and is running great now, he is based in Echuca.
  17. Well there’s the problem, RAA aircraft might be smaller but are not toy planes, where would aviation in Australia be today if we didn’t have the RAA.
  18. Great feed good blokes please do it again
  19. I have 2 Becker 4201 radios in my jab and 1 has hardly any volume now, has been working fine, checked antenna and wiring connections but everything looks fine any ideas where to go next thanks Keith.

  21. Stop worrying about how fast your going and just enjoy the flying
  22. Sitting at YBDG waiting for the temps to come up and this flew over
  23. Flew up to Mungo Lodge for lunch then on to Wentworth for 2 days , left Wentworth this morning flew to Pooncarie for lunch then back to YMMO. How bloody disgusting to see what they have done to the Darling river, no water in a lot of places then where there was water it looked green and stagnant,
  24. Shocking picture I know but if you enlarge it you can see the outline of the turtle cut into the paddock
  25. Quick trip over to shep for some charts then out to Dookie to see the turtle
