Default Byron RV-4 Builder's Group

Looking to connect with anyone that has built or is building, or has a kit of the Byron RV-4.
Trying to find out how many of these kits are actually out there. I know of only 2 others beside
the one I have, mine is nearing completion after owning it since 2008. As far as I can remember
the guy that I bought it from was the 2nd owner of this bird.

Just trying to find out what, if any problems, types of propulsion, generally trying to get a group
thread started to share experiences.

Have been through many ups and downs as to what i was going to power mine with and have
changed from Super Tiger G3250, to DLE 40 Twin, to RCGF 50 twin and now finally going 180
out and decided to go with electric power. Admiral GP26 6330-245kV Brushless Motor (1.6 Cu In equvillant),
ZTW Gecko 150A ESC OPTO High Voltage, with 2 x Roaring Top Lipoly 70c 5500 mah 5S
batteries for a total of 37 volts.


Let us please keep this to the Byron RV-4 and not any other manufacturer's

Thanks,

Bill Diedrich
Ventress, La.

Brings back memories, built a Glasair a few years ago, no longer here!. Will be following along.
Just watched a 1993 Byron promo video this morning on YouTube.

Doesn't look like there is any interest here so I will not be posting anything else concerning the RV-4.
Thread is closed and I have unsubscribed.............
