Has anyone on this forum or know anyone that uses Starlink mini in their aircraft while airborne? I have seen a couple youtube videos from USA that you can’t use it anymore over 80 knots without now subscribing to a rather expensive plan . I was wondering if this applies to the Australian region .I am lead to believe that it is restricted due to the mini been used in drones in the current wars .I use a mini in my vehicle but I have never tried it in my aircraft.

Rotax has been successfully blowing through carburettors for many years on the 914

Yes they do its an endorsement.

I decided yesterday to unpack and read my copy and discovered that they were addressed to members from local and near local area so my wife took them back to the post office so they can be delivered to their rightful owners.Mine just happened to be on the top of the bundle. I wonder how often this happens to other postal deliveries 🤔

I read somewhere years ago to just remember WEEO ,west evens east odds and say it as it’s spelt we-oh. Its now firmly entrenched in my memory.

Hi Clayton have a look at edge performance on the web .

I have owned my Sting 2006 model 912 uls for 6 years I am second owner from new . It is fast and economical to run . It has well balanced controls and has no unpleasant vices. Vne is 165knts and stalls at 35knts and I cruise at 115 to 125knts depending on power settings. Mine has an airmaster electric cs speed prop which is extremely good and combines good short take off and climb 1000+ fpm and cruises 115 at 26”map . Only minus is it runs out of back trim for landing you have to hold a little back pressure on stick but only a little pressure required and it wiggles the tail a little bit in mod turbulence. If you decide to purchase make sure its had the heavier nose wheel strut upgrade which is one of the very few ad,s and bulletins on this aircraft . Tl ultralights have a very good maintenance manual and parts manual all available on their website. Annuals are a very simple task following the manual and requires very little airframe maintenance . Hope this helps
