While Duck is dispencing his pearls of wisdom.....can I ask the same question for a 582 Blue Top ?

6000 rpm max continous for the 582

Hey guys ... that's why we come to microlighters.co.za ------ to help each other!

Sorry for the hijack, what or where is Morph?

[John Boucher]

Greg is busy with a serious project which is demanding a lot of his time. Note that he does keep an eye on the forum behind the scenes though. His infinite wisdom is however missed in so many avenues. I don't want to speak on his behalf though.....

In short, we DO MISS HIS PRESENCE, POSTS & PARTICIPATION!
