Re: Rotax 582 performance mod

Beste Henni Ek volg jou KR en enjin predicament met n valk oog. Ek self het n Volksplane waarvan die C of G uit was ( baie gatswaar en hoe meer brandstof jy uitvlieg hoe meer hang sy stert) Die volkwagen enjin is net eenvoudig te swaar en te min perdekrag.Toe gooi ek hom uit. Die vliegtuig is oud ma...

Re: Radio noise at high rpm...

HI Claude

I found the one and only person in Swakopmund Nmaibia that work with this stuff.
His question is - must it be exactly 22,000 uf 25V as he can supply me with an 20,000 uf.
He can make some up by soldering units together in series.
Will this be fine

regards
Johan de Wet
