Postby AWACS » Sat May 26, 2012 5:58 pm

Guys,
Please elighten me.
Is there a Rainbow Cheeatah flying in the RSA fitted with a Roatx 914 turbo? Is it technically possible to do this installation?
Never heard of one..

582, 912ul, 912extra, 912 uls, Jab 2200, Verner 133 (boxer motor - shake, rattle & roll :shock: ) .... that's about all I know of.

I think there is a Jab 3300 installation in the USA but don't know of a 914 though. 914 installation should not be very much different to the 912 installations?

Not that i know of but should not be hard or difficult to do. Would suggest you get the factory to do the install because it will be easier with the paperwork.
Nuts about Cheetahs. Petit is the place.
