Luca Milesi Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Dear pilots and builders, I live in the Swiss Alps and we are often flying over 10,000 ft and would really like to try to fit a Rotax 914 on my Savannah under construction. Does anyone have any experience? Is the engine mount different? What modifications are needed? Any help is welcome. Thanks and blue skies Luca Edited February 7, 2022 by Luca Milesi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam the Swiss Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Luca, maybe have a look at the 912 iS. To this end go to Vans page and compare the service ceiling of the 912 iS to that of the 912 ULS: It's 4300 ft higher! And this is just because the injection can adapt the mixture to low pressure better than the carburetors. This together with about 1/4 less gas consumed, and no balancing of the carbs. Maybe that's exactly what you need to fly over the alps: better efficiency. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
