[link=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-EmigA-fz8]Here[/link] you will find a short video that will give you an overview of the project! Believe me you will like no love it! :D:D:D:D:D |
RE: A legend returns
Did the IL-200 ever go into full production and distribution?
Looking forward to seeing (and hearing) more about this new engine. It should indeed be a monster! |

RE: A legend returns
Hi All,
If you go to Youtube and enter galloping ghost there are so videos of the kolm model flying. It sounds really good and looks fast. Last I knew the four cylinder was still in development according to the Kolm website but, that was a few months ago. If it is available, it will be at a premium price point. Here is a link to the model flying.... be sure and have a towel over your keyboard to keep the drool off :) http://youtu.be/5PnJkBl0Ql8 Carlos G. |

RE: A legend returns
The original 3cyl version has to be one of the best sounding piston RC planes ever made, I can't imagine what the 4cyl version will sound like. I would love to hear there 50cc single as well. No prices listed on vogelsag, guess if you have to ask... Either way amazing engine and gorgeous aircraft. Long live the Ghost!

RE: A legend returns
I'm thinking that for a hand built jewel you'll need to pay a premium price. You have the economies of scale working against low prices too..
Id LOVE to know the dimensions from Crank shaft to Top of cylinder for the 65..can't find it any where. :( |
RE: A legend returns
Can you imagine two of these in a P-38?????

I will have all performance data and tech info available after testing the protoytpe in the next few weeks. Look to my dossier here for the updates... Best regards, John |
RE: A legend returns
I have a Kolm 65 and would be very interested in a gear as it solves the problem with the height of this engine.
|
RE: A legend returns
I was thinking of the geared adaptor, good idea!. If you can fit the engine in say 240mm space that would work for me.
The idea is to put this engine in my Sis-T FW190A and keep it completely enclosed. |
RE: A legend returns
For me it's SiSt A or D. I have an A with a Zenoah 45 and a lot of led in the nose or a D9 that I bought last year.
I am also interrested to find out what propeller size it can support. |
RE: A legend returns
How does the A fly with the G-45?
I have a Saito 300 twin glow. I haven't flown it yet. Just worried about the power. |
RE: A legend returns
Hi
It flies great, but i weights 14kg and 1kg is lead so more power in stead of lead would be nice. Then I could move the 45 to my D9 that because of its longer nose do not need a lot of lead up front and will end up around 12 kg. |
