Engine week

Unread post by V5 - LEO »

....meant to post this last week already but it slipped through the sieved holes of the grey matter.

On youtube, the EAC (Experimental Aircraft Channel) they have a series of different powerplants and updates running called, Engine week. Lycoming, Rotax and Jabiru were covered already. Must say some good gen and updates forthcomming - worth the watch!

We typically use the Rotax and Jab engines for our lawnmowers and reserve the Lycomings and Conti’s for our aeroplanes :twisted:

The RV14/Deltahawk sounds like a good combination. But I'm still not sure if its really available or not?. Or are they still busy with "final " tests...
