  1. Looks like millions invested in that remarkably clean/new factory space. Hard to believe they could possibly sell enough single seater aircraft to go cash positive. I guess easy to change over to a cheaper build drone version for Ukraine.
  2. I find it to be very accurate. Double check the instructions and you should be fine.
  3. Look at the MGL fuel flow FF4 fuel computer. https://www.sparxfly.co.nz/2014/sparxfly_veg.shtml
  4. Have been cruising at 8500 western Qld and flock of Pelicans going other way. Wide eyes all checking each other out!
  5. Oshkosh absolutely fantastic. Have to go at least once in your life. 10000 aircraft land,stay,camp there, you can walk around amongst them all. No nanny state fencing and security like Aus.
  6. Do you have a high wing aircraft or low? If high with tanks in them, you probably don't even need a pump. But you must have an engine driven pump?
  7. Very important your engine spins at least 300rpm when trying to start. So need a good battery and starter motor, as magnets for coils supply weak spark at low revs. I have fitted an electronic ignition on one side, now starts at very low revs and in the cold weather.
  8. That is a conundrum.
  9. I have a Mgl V6 radio, been perfect for 10 years. It replaced a Microair, wasn't very old but just died. Stay away from them.
  10. Can an alternator be fitted to a Rotax? Changed to one on a Jabiru, no issues since.
  11. Yes, mine needs a heavy batt fwf. And for about $130 for a lead acid, can't fathom paying over $500 for a lithium.
  12. Sure complicates what should be a simple system. And a ludicrous price.
  13. If all the material costs have gone up roughly 3X then surely the flying planes will have to at least double in value.
  14. https://www.rv916.com/ Super expensive
