Why not just give Parajet a call?

Much as I am over the moon that my new Parajet has despatched and is due to be delivered tomorrow, I can't help being tempered by the weather forecast for the next week or more. I missed all the nice flying weather a few weeks back too. Looks like I'll be doing lots of prop polishing for a while.

Wow, nice one!

If you visit the site regularly then 8 pence per day is a bargain. And I defy anyone to not gain information, help and advice here.

It appears there's a sad twat copying bits of previous posts and making new posts on several board topics. I think the word is Troll.

And walk around looking upwards to the sky.

Excellent! Did you get any flying in?

He just flashed his super hero credentials and they let him in.

Deano reckons that by putting the engine into the new frame is like having another 20cc's.

Lots of identical CNC components so replacement bits are quick, cheaper and easy, lightweight, comes to bits into small size ...

Here's a link to it: http://www.polini.com/en/page_540.html

The Polini carbs have a device which empties the bowl back to the tank when not in use.

It has a separate stand. Probably a good idea to hold off on the pic for now Si.

I saw it in the flesh last week and was blown away, it is superb. Some really innovative features. Should be available within a few weeks apparently. I thought it was still top secret but as it's now on Facebook I guess it's all public now.

The BBC has some good video of this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-17592648

Stuff sack here too, always open and loosened up when stored. If you keep a finger between the A lines and the rest of the lines when you are making the rose then you can pull the A lines right at the end and all the leading edge segments pull together nicely.

I'm going for a float bowl type on my new motor, much smoother around the mid range.

I feel for you, I did the same thing last year, couldn't move off the floor for two days. Definitely rest as much as possible.

Thanks SImon, your services are invaluable.

Nice one. Looks like Gelli Gaer Common? Quote - '4000, I can't feel my fingers!'

Cheers Tom. I know the silencer always has a very tiny bit of movement in it which doesn't go away when everything is tight, I assumed it was by design. I'll take a closer look.

Thanks for the suggestion Mr Bend, however, Airways Airsports have come up trumps and are taking an engine mount off a new Volution they have, I will drive up and fit it then have a fly from their airfield (I've never flown from there before). They have gone out of their way to help me, really amazing (thanks to Rick), reminds me of Parajet customer support although I've not been an Airways *customer* before now so the support is in advance! Also reminds me of how helpful everyone is to each other in this sport.

I have been getting some uncomfortable vibration at cruise so checked my engine mountings today but one of them sheared off immediately. No forcing or excessive pressure, it made about an easy 1/8th of a turn and came off. I was planning on enjoying this nice weather which has been forecast for the next few days so am in a bit of a panic. Parajet are closed and Airways Airsports are helpfully seeing if they have anything (awaiting a call back from them). If anyone knows where I can get an engine mount I'd appreciate any help. I know the odds aren't high this late on a Saturday. Cheers Steve.

Great cloud shot!
