We had the waste gate controller disconnected from the manifold pressure
in the Motec software.

This Motec stuff is so complicated and there is no good book
on it. There is a real NEED!!!!!!! FOR A MOTEC BOOK.

I am kind of surprised. I guess they wanted to make sure you hire
one of their $75 an hour dealers.


This is a 68 inch prop 50 pitch so it went to 6000 static at 55 inches of Hg

We are really getting there now.

More data shortly with the big prop.

Imagine the 1.25 open hole is still in the exhaust manifold.

The noise is amazingly painful.  Even with a turbo charger.
Even with ear muffs. You have to press the ear muffs to your head
and it still HURTS!!!!!!.

No wonder my hearing is shot :-)

Nice Progress

Maybe not a book.... What's needed is an easily programable ECU that is intuitive to use yet comprehensive in its flexibility and capabilities. That, unfortunately does not exist today.

We are currently using one that is easy to program and flexible, but not reliable enough for anything that flies...... don't want a software crash to cause a real crash

In due time, we'll probably have to make our own ECU

Open source BASIC on a maximite would solve the problem.

A five year can learn BASIC :-)
