Re: EA 82

Bones,


I dont know a great deal but - they are heavier than the ea81 and due to reasons I cannot remember arent as well suited to gyro or aircraft mate. Give Steven Stubberfield a call and he'll tell you about them mate - Home ph 4151 7386 or work ph 4153 3356

Re: EA 82

No it not that much of a concern, its just that there seems to be a few gyros around with those engines in them for sale at the moment and was wondering the difference thats all,, how that motor of yours going, on the horrible FW???

Re: EA 82

Horrible FW !! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr r rr r

It's sittin upright at the moment having conicle mounts made up as per piccy mate. Fella is doin a mighty job on it too I might add!!! Hopefully I'll be able to get moving on it very shortly.

Went for a fly in an RV6 last weekend up at Old Station .... frig they move along nicely - 145 knots cruise - fully aerobatic .... my first look at the world upside down at 2000 feet !! rippa mate!!!

Re: EA 82

As far as i know, the ea82 is an 1800 with overhead cam. Torque etc etc was not in the best place for gyros.

don't tell bones.........tell im nuthin
