Hello:
Does anyone have a cad drawing for a 13B single rotor e-shaft?
Does anyone have an intake manifold drawing for the 13B single rotor
engine?
What kind of HP can I get out of single rotor using 86-88 13B parts?
Does anyone have any links to info on these single rotor motors?
Is there any parts that are interchangeable between a 12A and 13B?
Are there any manuals on this conversion?
Thanks
Rich Gillen
Rich,
the single rotor is, unfortunately a little more complex than just taking
12A or 13B parts, except for the e-shaft, and put an acceptable engine
together. If you want to save weight, you need to decide which e-shaft
configuration do you want to use. For example, I decided to leave the WP end
of the shaft alone and modify the PTO end. The main reason for this was that
I feel the lower power out put does not need all that big taper end. I also
go for a PSRU with a standard Rotax like interface. And this is only the
beginning.
My 12A version is running now on the test stand. If every thing is keeps
going as it did so far, I may be able to put the engine in the airplane
within a year.
All the work I do on this engine will apply eqally to a 13B based version.
