Looking to move on my PT2 project. Purchased in Sep 22 as a flying aircraft it was completely stripped and rebuilt over the last year. Airframe hours is appx 82 with appx 40hrs on a zero timed Rotax 912ULS. The intention was to leave it mostly uncovered and fly it naked style but I've found that 100hp isn't enough to give it the performance I'm after. Hence I'm at the point were I either move it to someone who would like to cover it and complete/ install a larger engine or I have to find the time to complete it. Wings repainted in 2k grey primer 912ULS Warp drive ground adjustable prop Aluminium spinner Custom spring tension shocks Maul tailwheel Electric trim ICOM radio Matco brake cylinders KTM orange powder coated frame Original fibreglass parts available Original build manual Engine moved forward 300mm to give more leg room Increased rudder area to improve poor yaw stability of original Rudder trim Re-covered seats 80Lt capacity 600kg MTOW Unregistered trailer that was used to move the aircraft with wings folded. Don't recommend transport with wings folded due to width and stress on wing. However wings easily fold for storage. Trailer can be used to move fuselage. Happy to sell without the 912ULS.

Looking for a single until to replace the dual bings on a 912ULS. Just experimenting with using the 912 at a lower cruise RPM without it running to lean with the bings. Hoping someone has one sitting around they'd be willing to pass on for some $$. Bodie 0424442638 -
Becker 4201 flashing low volts problem
bodex replied to bodex's topic in Instruments, Radios and Electronics
No still faults. Becker said to send it away as it may be a internal failure. Will cost a fair whack to fix it, I purchased it second hand with the description of it working fine. -
Hi all, Just installed a Becker 4201 into my home built. During power on testing the units led continuously flashed low voltage and shows 7volts. Voltage check on battery end shows 13v, same as volts on the pins on radio plug. Anyone had similar problems? Solutions? Hoping maybe it's just pins the need some contact cleaner on them. Thanks

Yeah I found this info and spoke to RAA. However their privacy rules won't allow them to give me any owner/builder info unless I've purchased the aircraft. They didn't seem to understand I need more information to support the purchase.

Yeah, did you buy the nieuport in Townsville? I was looking at that too. Yes this is the one for sale, looks like my next project. Thanks for the help

Hi all, I'm in the process of buying a Australian built ultralight and I'm chasing some info. I've attached a picture to this post, the info I have so far is. Build in 1997 buy Andrew Richards (believed deceased) and Raymond hill under the names skybound aviation, aircraft called ar-5. Flew 10hrs of testing Held a RAA ergo of 10-1884. I'm chasing any info anyone may have on the history of this aircraft. Any help would be awesome. Cheers Bodie
