Without stating the obvious, have you checked your gauge and or your transmitter. I had a simular problem, checked both out to discover it was the transmitter.
I have a split quad oil pressure, temp, cht and egt gauge with a transmitter by Westach.
Hope this helps

Yep! I can endorse Paul's comments. I have landed my nipper in x winds that were sporty to say the least, but not by choice may I add. The problem arises when slowing down to a taxi and ground manouvers, the up wind wing can be lifted in as little as 20 kts, couple this with the bungee undercarraige...

Welcome Neil to the Nipper world, what a fine choice you could not have bought anything better, your nipper is a fine example and great to fly.
To you Des, thanks for your friendship hope to see you at Eddsfield soon with something aerobatic. Cheers mate JAB

Hi Chaps Just a quick heads up to report that XD is moving to a new home. I am relocating to Bridlington, East Yorkshire, and will be operating XD from Edds Field, all being well. This move should allow me to visit most of the fly-ins next year, so I hope to meet up with some of you chaps. Till then...

Ha Ha Des

VW power and hand jobs work! so don't knock it. Mine will fly upside down and still run [sometimes]

FE fly's very well with a light old person in,even though I could not see out of the front.

You need the extra power to compensate for the weight!

See you tomorrow

JAB

Well, as expected the weather gods have spoilt the Jock Wing's fly-out to Oban. 1000 vis 800' bkn + Mist and CB's are not the sort of weather that you should be out in,much to the disappointment of Paul,Des and Myself. On the plus side I was at Perth today and witnessed another Pilot to join and be ...

Des As you know I have a VW like Paul. My maint is: Top Cowling off before first flight - good look as I have found bird nesting bits before in another type. 25 hrs check as per ASM/ESM + Oil and Filter change. 50hr as per ASM + 100 HR checks on engine - Barry Smith wrote the Engine ESM so I follow ...

Hi Des and Paul I'm free! Wed Thurs Fri this week so lets get it on! Weather Gods please take note!! There is a Families Day at Fife Airport on Sat. The Chairman has invited me - I wonder why? However, as there are no landing fees for this event and all are welcome we could meet there. A Nipper thre...

Cheers John

Des I am at present in Melksham returning to Scotland 17:00ish tues. -use my mobile no if you wish. I had no problem with Blackpool. I just ppr'd, ensured they were aware what the nipper was and requested a quick refuel . I requested no handling as I wanted to leave asap. Insurance was not mentioned...

I flew from dundee down the west side to Oaksey Park last year in XD during my charity flight, stopping at carlisle,blackpool and glouchester for refuel and defuel. Trip was quite straightforward with most nav done by map reading and...
