RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

I don't know about a V2 version, but I just had my SAP 180 upgraded with a new carb and the new muffler. Turnaround was rapid and the cost was only parts and shipping. At one time this was one of the...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

2 cents:
I have lost track of the number of flights and the number of gallons of fuel that went through my SAP-180 number 1. It has been in two airplanes now since Jim and I bought one of the...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Jim,
The Ultra IBE can be jumpered for outputs of 5, 5.3, 6.1, or 6.6 according to the user guide. I use the 5 volt output. I am not sure how long the A123s will last, my current packs started in a...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

My best engine is the SAP-180, I bought an early one along with Jim and other folks. It is without a doubt the finest motor I have. I have many hours on it, in both a Monocoupe and now a new Pilot-RC...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Hi Jim,
Yup, lots of flights on the coupe running the Vess 18-6 at an indicated 9100rpm. I am thinking of going to an 18-8 or even a 20-A because the cowl is so big it blocks a lot of the prop -

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Just an FYI - I spoke with Todd a few days ago and he told me that they are in the middle of moving the entire shop to new digs. They have had to expand and that is causing some growing pains. There...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

I thought the woodruff key issue was solved, there was a small number of soft keys that got mixed into the assembly line by mistake?

My Syssa spins the Vess 18-6 sport prop on my clipped wing...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Jim and brothers,
I ran my Syssa bolted up to the monocoup and ran in to the exact same problem Jim experienced! When I ran the engine the first time, the bolts just walked out of the mounts. I...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Choke question -
Ok, I did not realize the choke does not have a 2 position detent - it is spring loaded to stay open. How can you set up a manual choke to start the engine? If you have to hold it...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Stock is what I am interested in also, unless installing in a 3D airframe that can hold a pipe? Are there any - I thought they were only designed for canister mufflers - maybe much shorter than the...
