  1. I've done a bit more searching and if you need clarification on the exact specifications of the G97/M7; Peter Harlow - Foxbat Australia would be able to give you the correct information as he was the approved Australian/New Zealand distributor for them. He may even pick up on this thread and let us know what happened to the design. APenNameAndThatA you will know Peter.
  2. I think you got the MTOW wrong; it's 472.5kg not 742kg
  3. I did some searching last night and found information from 2014, which I've put in a PDF attachment. The G97 was renamed the M7 by the designer who I have emailed but not received a reply yet. Cheers, G97 - M7.pdf
  4. Thanks Ian
  5. Hi dj_rex I sent you a pm but never received a reply, If you still want the information contact me.
  6. Sent you a PM
  7. If you can send me an email to <[email][email protected][/email]> I can send you all the information or you can ring me on 07 4129 4212. Cheers, Graeme
  8. There are a lot of difference way's to produce a coaxial propeller drive This sketch could be one Or you could use one of these https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Drive+for+coaxial+propellers+1+-+10 Just work on what suits your application best; but I would use belts to the prop shafts.
  9. No, it's a side by side boxwing design, but not a Ligeti Stratus.
  10. Bevel gears in a counter rotating gearbox makes it too complicated and heavy; it can be done with spur gears only and will run smoother an quieter.
  11. Just go up 4 posts; the 3 view drawing is there; it's fully enclosed so you can't see the internal tube frame but basically the same setup as the HM-1000 But not a flying flea design; it's a boxwing.
  12. Well; all I can say is I'm glad your not designing my concept aircraft. I don't know where you got 100-150mm high speed bearings and especially a bevel gear system. If you look closely at the HM1000 photo you will see the tube that has the prop hub is about 44mm so the solid bearing shaft would be 38mm, so the bearings would be 38mm ID x 63mm OD x 4 off (2 at the front of the hub and 2 at the hub. This is a proven system and has been operating for nearly 20 years. Being a belt drive it gives you the required reduction and would be turning the prop at about 2700rpm max. and using belts, torsional vibrations are almost nil. The top support for the rear fuselage is that thin solid round bar (about 20mm OD) that connects to the 38mm solid bar at the front of the prop. Haven't got a clue where your bevel gear system would go.
  13. This is another brilliant mid tailboom propeller aircraft; the HB-204 Tornado tandem seat trainer.
  14. This is my concept mid boom propeller aircraft; a bit heavier the yours at 600kg MTOW and the boom has more support from below. It should have very good handling characteristics and light on fuel. Unfortunately no folding wings.
  15. The HM-1000 (which is a Flying Flea design) in the above photos has a Rotax 582 engine. Now watch the video and see how well it performs.
  16. Hi Deskpilot, Been following your design from the start, where are you up to with it. I've had a passion for the tailboom propeller aircraft because of the protection given to the prop and the better efficiency. Counter rotating props could be done without being complicated. I've been tinkering with a boom prop design myself.
  17. Hi Ian, Are you still sending out the "Last week's most popular topics" each weekend ?? I haven't been receiving anything since August last year. Cheers, Graeme
  18. I've listed this engine in the classifieds for anyone that may be interested
  19. Well, the latest news for the Aquila Airpark in Maryborough is : DEAD There has been no interest shown since the FCRC Approval and the owner/developer has called it quits; he's not prepared to spend $5M on the off chance some aviators may become interested. He has the property up for sale on https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-qld-yengarie-130542762 Development Approval has lapsed and is not included, but could be resubmitted by new owners.
  20. Did you get my emails of 9.12.18 and 18.12.18
  21. Hi Ian, Have you fixed that link "Please see here for details of being registered as a Supplier" I am waiting to register for the products that I sent you in emails which haven't been acknowledged as yet. I would like to get it done before January 1st 2019 Cheers
  22. Hi Ian Your link, "Please see here for details of being registered as a Supplier" is not working. Does it still exist Cheers
