    Actually just ordered a Eprop for a guy over there in NZ about to build a savannah
  2. Kyle Communications
    Its not available yet Hank...they are almost finished testing though
  3. Kyle Communications
    The savannah system works well..although the kit supplied arrangement is crappy and leaks. But basically it a block with 4 ports screwed into it. One is the inlet from the pump then two are to outputs to the carbs and the last is the return to the tank. This return fitting has the .35mm restrictor in it. This restrictor will NOT do anything to your fuel pressure from the pump on the motor. You have a issue somewhere else. The electric boost pump is usually a facet and the number is a 40105 for a high wing tanked aircraft and a 40106 for a low wing tanked aircraft. The 40106 has a bit more pressure out to pump uphill

    Luca ... If you go to this page 17 on my rebuild blog you do what I did on the outer tank sections. I changed my tanks but the process is still the same Have a read through this blog if you havent already this may give you some insights into the construction. I have made mods though to what I want in mine. My previous blog building a new XL is also on here if you ahvent read it..it is the first one I built some 9 years ago and it will show you some tips as well On page 4 you will see I did the same thing

    No those pots at te side are audio stuff adjustment. The VCO is internal in the frequency design..its setup at manufacture

    radio micro processors can have a heart attack with unclean powersupplys
  8. Kyle Communications
    The engine running shouldnt make any difference unless your regulator on the engine is putting out high volts or spikes..check your regulator output
  9. Kyle Communications
    Voltage Controlled Oscillator...its basically the main frequency control of the radio. It is the frequency driven by the PLL (Phase Locked Loop)...if the VCO or PLL dont work properly the radio is not under frequency control. The microair has a big habbit of just running off to other frequies of its own choice.
  10. Kyle Communications
    The VCO maybe dropping out....its a common issue with the Microair
  11. Kyle Communications
    Hahahah buy another radio...waste of money continuing try to fix a bad design
  12. Kyle Communications
    Here in OZ most seem to be running 2 blade wood props but some do use the carbon fibre 2 blades
  13. Kyle Communications
    He has a Jab engine so only certain props can be used because it is a direct drive engine Eprop are testing props for those style of engines now and will soon release their versions. There will be 2 and 3 blade available I am told
  14. Kyle Communications
    Sent you a PM now
  15. Kyle Communications
    Yes just chasing his number now
  16. Kyle Communications
    Dr kev still has his and it is forsale
  17. Kyle Communications
    Yes there is one at Caboolture for sale It looks like that one pictured
  18. Kyle Communications
    I just re enable the same one before it ends its on my telstra app
  19. Kyle Communications
    I use the Telstra 5gb one its $50 I just redo it every year. I only use the that Ipad for flying though

    Its the level of noise that triggers the vox operation...your issue is the frequency of the noise I think. Once the mic is open it is getting the higher frequency audio of the engine noise. So you have to desensitise the microphone a bit to compensate
  21. Kyle Communications
    Try the Intsqh Thats the vox tripping for the intercom that will also tell you your audio out level quite a lot if you ahve a mate beside you..he will hear how much noise is in the cockpit in the background and that will allow you to adjust the internal micaudio level Its a adjustment you need to play with..its like running a pool at home its a balance of salt and chlorine and PH to get the levels you want. I have a new MGL V16 radio here and its a digital version it also has issues that are caused by all of the adjustments and how you do them but when you get the balance right between mic element audio level the internal radio mic gain etc it sounds really good on transmission
  22. Kyle Communications
    I will look in the manual Vox is the sidetone audio pickup level. Thats a good indicator of what level you should be using as it is the same audio (and background) level that goes out when you hit the PTT button
  23. Kyle Communications
    Bob Your turn the mic gain down on the mic element then you have to turn up the internal mic audio on the radio. On both my Lightspeeds the mic gain was almost totally off to get really good performance...when I adjusted the mic element it was orginally set from new about just over half way which was way too much. Its a balancing act but you only want your voice to be picked up. Your mic on your headset should be sitting about 2mm from your lips...no further out this keeps the ambient noise especially at high rpm away from the mic as your voice level will be the only thing it should be hearing..also your Vox adjutment will come into this as well. You may need to increase the vox adjustment

    Nev The parts in the kit are very well made. All the CNC stuff is really nice. The manuals are very good although you use 3 manuals to build. A text manual, a figures manual and a assembly drawing manual Lots of videos out now too with guys doing their builds and any snags or tricks to help the build Just have to get Mabel painted and down to the hangar then I can finally get to start mine

    The S-21 TD is extremely tame. I didnt do any takeoffs or landings as I dont that that endorsement but was watching and there was virtually no dancing at all on the peddels for take off or landing and I had 2 flights over 3 days. The last day and its on my video in the last 1/3 of it all that low leve; the winds were 20kts and more that day This is me filming back in 2018 and my mrs was pretty excited after her flight
