First run up With prop. Phone died before test was complete, reached 365 lbs thrust. After test I noticed the throttle cable had slipped so I think it has a little more.

    I just bought a Kit Fox !! only a few small things left to do. I don't even fly, but I couldn't pass this deal up. My Friends Dad died, and he had a kit fox he was just about finished with. I mean this plane is almost ready. Only 8 hours of flight time. So I bought it !! I have always wanted to fly. My dad took me to air shows, he even flew a little too. So I'm going for it !! 65 years old, and I do a lot of out door adventures. boat camp, motorcycle camp, car camp, and now the frosting on the cake, Plane camping !! Nice plane and TALLY HO !!

    Hi there! We are also doing a phazer aircraft conversion right now, I'll be following your progress, thanks for uploading!! Also may I ask what gearbox you are using? We noticed the output shaft from the phazer is a keyless tapered shaft and we haven't decided how to connect it to anything yet. Thanks!

      @@byroncronk3251 Thanks so much for your quick reply! I've just checked out the facebook group. We are currently attempting to build a prototype for a new, blended wing body design! A complication is that we will need about a 5ft long propeller shaft. We are currently working with a 2007 Phazer engine, but if everything goes well and we make a few airplanes, we eventually want to switch over to the HKS 700e.

      I just bought a Phazer motor for my trike. I have an Apex motor but 140hp is a bit much on a lightweight trike. (if anyone is interested in it it's for sale). Teal Jenkins of skytrax is making custom gear boxes for Yamaha motors. Really nice units. ua-cam.com/video/r8UXxcV1CFQ/v-deo.html
