    More info on ATF 50 coating please. Sorely needed in Florida's salty atmosphere.

    New and I'm there's a product online called Gibbs that does the same thing you soak the engine down with it everything and then you can run it for a couple of days and then spray it off and it'll look like new forever. You do that like once a season. Twice if you really think you need to. 303 protectant works exceptionally well on any and all Rubber and EPDM products.
    An inexpensive ceramic product is the Turtle Wax hybrid ceramic. It is the cheapest and for its price the best performing ceramic product for the paint that you're going to find that I have seen yet.
    A few Vortex generators on the Leading Apex of that Wing should work quite well and steady that thing out just a little bit.

    I just picked up a 650b kit and I want this EXACT same engine setup!

    Thinking of purchasing a 601 and switching the 0-200 to a Viking power plant with more HP.
    Having more hp, smoother starts and full fadec would be a really nice addition.

    Great video with a lot of information. Any chance we'll be seeing a video sometime soon, about the Viking engine shown being installed in the BD-4C a few months ago?

      Hey Les, the BD4 was just here last week or so, he had made a few changes and we did a bit of work for him. We plan on doing some ground tests with him in a week or so. He has made progress, but not much as far as the engine goes. More soon!

    Is the offset mount standard now for the FWF kits?

  • @dntower85
    @dntower85 2 роки тому

    So is there going to be an updated engine mount? a little to close on the air filter and might be hard to get to the belts.

    • @eggenfellner
      @eggenfellner  2 роки тому

      They are all updated now as offset. About the time this video was published and we were sure everything worked well, we did that for all of them.

      @eggenfellner  3 роки тому +1

      Yes sir - Rans S19 (many videos on that on here) RV9, RV6, RV12, Morgan Cougar (110) RV7 in the works, Saberwing in the works. Those are a few that come to mind.

      That is correct, it is with the V195T.

    redid the W&B - how much difference?

      @eggenfellner  3 роки тому +1

      Wasn't any different in installed weight, but a shift in CG due to the engine being closer to the firewall. For the better.
