I have a Zonsen (ZD) CA500 (100hp) which I added the KFA turbo conversion to. Use it in my KFA Explorer. Produces 135hp and its as smooth as a turbine. So far I am loving the engine setup.

@richardturner6278 2 месяца назад

Great interview Brian. I was glad when Matt got the Zenith 701 and it's good to see someone actually using the ZD engine. Seems to be mostly haters regarding these engines in the US. from what I've seen from Matt, he's had less problems than people with the equivalent Rotax. Have u got your engine mounted yet? Last I saw u were working on the wings.

OK, I finally found Matt on Google Maps. I have been looking months and he said New Brunswick, and yeah,, I finally see the airport, river etc that I have been watching for months. My name is Bill, from Kentucky and have ask Matt some questions over the past year or so. Its nice to watch his videos and then see on google maps where he is. The other wood stock is only about 10 hrs from where live in Ky. Now I know it is a lot further.. 1451 miles from my home town. Enjoy the videos that Experimental Aircraft has. I keep up with both of you. Keep up the good work. Lots of enjoyment from an old man who wants to fly ultralights. Thank You!

I've watched a good number of mmatt's videos. Down-to-earth guy who comes across as very natural on camera. Easy to watch because he's more about good content for aviation enthusiasts with none of the self-centered, narcissistic garbage that's become all too common on some flying channels.

MMatt is the 1st channel I ever discovered and I always watch. You chose a Franklin engine for your plane, right?

@philipritson8821 2 месяца назад

Wrong!

@ExperimentalAircraftChannel 2 месяца назад

I did choose a Franklin Engine for mine correct. I had a custom one built. But decided to sell it to a Franklin Fan due to it was heavier than originally thought/read/told and less supported than I thought. So... I went with the lightest and simplistic option. A Rotax.

@tonylam9548 2 месяца назад

Lacking the slats did not mean the original builder were not interested in STOL, I noticed they did added the rows of VGs. The lack of slats will likely get the lane about 5 MPH faster. The main purpose of the slats are to grow hair on the pilot's chest. But then , choosing a 2200 sealed its fate as to performance, with 15 HP less and the wrong RPM. I never heard of ZD before and have to check them out, my choice for the 750 I am building was always Aero Momentum, with 17 more HP and a reduction box. I live less than 100 miles south of the Zenith factory in YYZ. Rotax is too expensive for me, and Edge is worse, for I have to buy a Rotax first (or they do) and then add the modification cost. One problem with ZD is the carburator, I thought that is a relic of last century and I never buy a Rotax with the carbs. I am aware Edge have an injection modification kits for Rotax.

Many years ago my Dad told me that IFR in the 1930s meant "I fly rails." They would follow the railroad tracks and get their location from the names of the towns on the water towers.

@scottmiller4711 2 месяца назад

There is no phase of any flight where you can’t get back on the ground! May not walk away but I guarantee it will be back on the ground…I think he meant back to the airport runway!

Hey if you can walk away from the landing, it's a good one!

That said, I also recall being told there was nothing wrong with a Generation III Jabiru engine if it was maintained properly.

@philipritson8821 2 месяца назад

Ok so the engine's a Chinesium Rotax 912 clone. I suppose this is not the place to express an opinion on this aspect of the aircraft's engine.

Express away. And if you have any questions... would love to hear then. Making a running list as we will do a Deep Dive into this engine topics soon. 😊

@philipritson8821 2 месяца назад

No offense intended Matthew or Bryan. I like your channels and I share the frustration with the cost of a new Rotax 912. I need sometime to think this through but my concern about a Chinese Rotax 912 clone is: 1. Is it legal. 2. Is it ethical. 3. Is it safe/reliable. Like I said, I don't know enough right now to express an opinion on all three counts.
