Hi Hans

Thanks for the info
I am still having a little trouble with the site as far as the FAQ'S

seems some little smart kid in the USA crashed the server and they had
thousands of site with problems I have tried to rectify it but will need to
have another go at , as for the forums you will need to register to get in I
have only had one guy who had some problems logging into the forum and once
he registered all was ok it could be because the forum uses php format ,

but as far as the kit costs it sells here at $42,850.00 aud you would

need to subtract 10% as tax is not applic if exported , the freight costs
vary we have found it easier to arrange freight from the USA rather than
here , it will fit into a 20" container easily even maybe get 2 inside .

As for the rotary engine well its a bloody ripper Aussie slang for very

good , we have the mounts, cooling system, exhaust, new manifold, our own
re-drive, our own constant speed prop , the engine will produce 237 shaft hp
at 6000 rpm this equates to 165 at the prop flange it also burns at full
continuous power 27 litres of fuel phr or in cruise mode around 22 litres ,
all our engines are new ex factory non salvaged engines directly from Japan
we still strip and check every engine they are given an ID for trace ability
and are dyno run with performance sheets supplied , I will be looking to fly
the first 2 of our rotary powered aircraft within the next 4 weeks so this
will be a very exciting time for me , the calculated speed of the aircraft
should be around 205 knots so it will be very interesting to see the outcome
.

At this point we do not have any agents in the USA although we hope to

start on the US market very soon

Thanks for your enquiry Regards Tommy

"237 HP at 6000 RPM equates to 165 at the prop flange"?  "27 liters (7GPH)

per hour at full

power"?  This guy is an idiot or an out and out liar. Sounds like a scam.

I would not

give him any of my money. "205 Kts (236 MPH)"?  Why is it that rotaries

attract the charlatans?

It just seems like so many of them are Aussies. Must be left over genes

from prison colony

days :) Either that or they think Americans are stupid.

Good luck Baz.

Paul,
I think Baz said he has already purchased a kit, don't make him feel too
bad!  However it does seem expensive to me. I would be very interested on
your opinion Baz, on the quality of the Kit?

Like I said I don't think he has a great deal of knowledge of the Rotary -
the problem I see he will be learning at others expense.

Not to worry Baz, you will be supported by the Acre group in regard to your
engine questions. The best thing you could have done is join Acre.

I just hope he isn't using Leon's PSRU for that HP.

My e-mail is lendich@optusnet.com.au - if you would like to contact me
privately on questions on the local issues/products etc.
