GIVE ME OPTIONS FOR TRIKE ENGINES
WHAT OPTIONS DO I HAVE FOR A SAFARI TRIKE BESIDES THE ROTAX 582 AND ROTAX 503.
A VOLAR YIIIIIJJJAAAAA.
Re: GIVE ME OPTIONS FOR TRIKE ENGINES
Look at these: http://www.airtrikes.net/engines.shtml
Also another site if you check out NEW ENGINES further down the list. Oupa-G has also developed a BMW motor, read about it in May's Popular Mechanics or PM him and I'm sure he'll tell you more. It would be nice to see some other engines apart from Rotax in the air in SA.

Re: GIVE ME OPTIONS FOR TRIKE ENGINES
Its all about power to weight ratio & redundancy. I received this on E mail , incredible engineering if not fake. If one cylinder fails there are 7 spares.
If you can fly today - leave everything else for tomorrow

Re: GIVE ME OPTIONS FOR TRIKE ENGINES
Not fake at all. Go have a look on You tube and you'll fine many miniature engines that actually function. Will see if i can get the site with a miniature Merlin engine with reduction drive and prop running.incredible engineering if not fake. If one cylinder fails there are 7 spares.
I sometimes get confused............But i'm not sure

http://www.enginehistory.org/merlin_xx.htm If i am correct then this is the site.
