Season greetings Paul & all. I need to know an approximate complete
installed weight for a single rotor version of a 13B, P/Port with
carby, using your universal design engine mount,
with/*/*/*/**/*/*/*/Jeff's/*/*/*/**/*/*/*/PSRU ADAPTER PLATE AND
MOTOR MOUNT. Gear box (Tracy's) or your new light weight version, &
prop..

How much of a difference would Aluminum side housings make?

looking at buying a U/L with a dead suburu engine in it..  Would love
to swap it out for a rotary..

Kind regards

Keith.

A couple of questions come to mind. Why is it an UltraLight with a Soob?
Soobs are usually way too heavy for an U/L.

Is this in the US or some other country with different U/L rules?

If the weight and balance with the Soob is OK... why not a 2 rotor?
A one rotor would be way more expensive than a two rotor.

Given that the Soob is way too heavy and you need an engine
under 200 pounds firewall forward a one rotor with aluminum
end plates is possible but expensive.

It would help if you had a big lathe for cutting down the e-shaft.

Also contact Richard Sohn.

Another possibility is wait for a range extender rotary from Mazda.

For a true U/L engine try AIXRO.
