With a featherlite engine I would be concerned of the plane being to heavy. Does anyone know how many lbs of lift the Kadet generates?
Also are there any downsides of a Diesel conversion? I have heard they greatly increase fuel efficiency? Is this true?
Wow, you are really flying high!
Way beyond visual range huh?
Anyway, wonder how did the Diesel conversion go?
Did you try it on your OS61FX?
