Default RE: post some pictures of your pattern plane!!

Sure we remeber you all. I have the video of some very "friendly" rivalry between you and the Kiwi's :-) If I ever figure out how to make DVD's from the digital tape, you are all in trouble... :-) (VBG)

One result is that the idle was extremely reliable and could be taken down to 1100 rpm and held there - if you dared! It would recover immediately. Almost like my FI computer module motors

The rpm's were down about 100 with the combination insert/filter. This is not an issue with the DZ because as you know lugging power in the mid range is its main feature.

I eventually sold mine because I only had/could-get one at the time. You always need at least three. One in the plane, one in the car and one in pieces :-)
