  1. hi Cobra You could try Adventures own site they have some pdf's although not the one for the solo 210 engine. I ended up downloading the freshbreese pdf for their solo engined machine instead it gives me the settings and info about the engine I need. They are good reliable units as long as they have the high energy ignition. weak point is the cage and when it goes invariabley the prop does as well. The cage for the Nirvana range of units is almost a straight swap with a huge improvement in material strength that gives a very solid cage that can take a bump or two without turning into crumpled up tent poles. Well worth doing. Anyway enjoy and welcome to the forum Cheers Col...
  2. hi malks Unfortunatly on nights thurs . sorry dude.
  3. Hi All a novice tester is a bang on idea for the wings and kit put forward by the industry as " sutiable for a beginer ". Some one in their first year of flying and stands down at the end of that year for the next novice. I think that would give a truer result than say a five year pilot testing it. As the more experianced pilot tends to almost auto correct as he launches , ground handles ect without really thinking about or noticing that he's doing so. I would think the person who does this would get a huge amount of experiance from it. Just a thought... Cheers Col.....

  10. I havent tried any of those . I have a very smooth mid range on my adventure a3 with the 210 engine which i put down to it having a walbro 37 instead of the 32 fitted. Might be something to try before chopping /stuffing bits off/in the standard carb. Cheers Col.....

  19. from what I've read I would say it has to be the decompression hole blocked. I'm sure you have but just to check you did clean both ends of the hole one with a 3mm drill bit and the other a 4mm bit cant remember of hand which is which but should be easy to tell. Best of luck. chers Col...

  22. Hi Paul , No afraid I dont . No surprice really as I only get to fly in the area when I go to visit family once or twice a year and even then its only a couple of days at a time. Hope to see you back up at lambourn over the winter period. Think it was back in july We last met up at the flyin. Take care Cheers Col....
  23. Hi Barry, Outcast is right I am from your neck of the woods, Saltcoats to be exact. There are four of my mates who fly regular in the area two Saltcoats, one Ardrossan and one Kilmarnock based. If you drop me a PM with your contact details I'll pass it on. I'm sure they would be happy to talk flying with you and show you round their kit. I think that they know of someone who is an instructor in the area so should be able to point you in the right direction. Cheers Col... If you have a look at my photo album on this site there are some pics My mate took of me flying the coast between Saltcoats and Largs last year.
