We got a wold grasscutter wif a lectric motor so we put the rattan mother wif all the gedoentes in the waenhuis and we fit the lectriek wif brakets on the the trike . We put the fonjong generator 5 kw on the back seat and start it up , but now the propeller turn to slow , so my uncle cut 3 inches of the points , now is better but still to slow . I get the iron saw and we takes 4inches more of now it rev like a cortina gt , but we can't get off the ground , we want to be at the tedderfield on Saturday wif the first lectriek trike so people's Julle Moët help we is going to put the water pomp engine on tomorrow ' will it fly , we get a info prop from Karel Menge at marble hall .

Hi Witwillem,

Die maklikste sal maar wees om hulle te "google"! Anders praat met die manne van Microland, glo gaan hulle na Panorama toe vlieg en van daar na Tedderfield! Dis seker so 5 myl van Panorama af!

Sien julle daar!

Yes peoples, what weekend, the generator nearly killed me , we use the wolf grasscutter machine hand starte for speed control an it it a too speed , to fast and two slow , maar that's that en jou ous knows us Vd Walts we makes aplan . We put the generator on the back seet without the frame , we weld angle iron brake tang take the engine out the frame and put it where the back seat was , the petrol tank is now the windlas tank wit h a 12 volt lectric ford Sierra fuel pump.we make the propellor bit shorter , so 2 and 3quater inch , now we gets refs an baie thrust , we takes a try flight and just as we Ge into the sky over over loss blik kiss se hoe near farm the safety belt holding the engine fas starts melting on the exhaust and the engine generator falls off and the chickens must run for their life , the trike is now a glides , wif out engine and the only place to land is after the vark plaas van Jp Vd Walt far of cousin . Ja one helle smash I take off the roof and the varkens run rub all over the Jaart.Tneef far of was very cross and he say he report us to he polices if we don't fix the barkers hok before the sun go down today , Ja you ous no us we makes a plan , the varkens now have a See fru sun roof , Nogal fiber glass , so that is why we did not get to tedderfield by the way the generator is nou in sy nut in , I looks for 7 kva generator now.

WitWillem, I think wat you must do is think out side of the doos, and I wus thinking that you can leave the generator what is in sy nut in and jus get for you a long xtension wat can let you fly wifout any 5 kilobite generator.

But I think that if you do circuts, you must do one left hand downhill, and then next one must be right hand down hill other wise you get a big not and then the krag doesnt come through to the lectric motor.

All the best - I jus wanna see some fotos of your machine (^^)
