Re: New engine

Sven, Thanks for prompt response. Great that it work OK. I may try one on my Nipper. Was there a modification required to a Revflow carb? If so what is the number please.

aerobatic sights

Anyone made or fitted any? If so how do you figure out the angle to mount? (Top surface of wing seems to be angled about 20 degrees from horizontal).

Re: Carb needed

Sven, thanks very much for your kind offer.
I have found someone who can test and possibly service my Tillotson. It's on way to him currently. So let's wait a few days to see whether he can fix it.
If he can't then I will definitely need yours.
Thanks Malcolm

Re: Inverted fuel

Neil,
Are the Rotecs now approved?
Have you used one or do you have details of someone who has?
There is an Ellison ELS-3A going on ebay currently, wondering if that's an option to replace my Tillotson.
Also, is there any support for Ellison any more?
