Hi guys, Disclaimer: I am no RF expert! (Then again: not always sure if any engineer really understands the invisible black magic of RF!) Bernard's advice it...
Interesting thing with Jabiru engines and certain VW conversions, discovered not long ago: Jabiru type magnetoes can be incredible "killers". We had a VW ...
I have an E1-MaxiSingle and an FF1-Smart Single. On two occasions, I have flown by a weather radar at two separate locations. They look like white domes....
Your power supply cables are likely acting as receive antennas. In close proximity to radar or microwave stations very large signals can be induced on your...
Hi Rainier, Sorry, I've been away for a few days and missed your reply. Two things: one is that I would likely use less than full height - just enough to get a...
That's good advice - works well in cars and particularly boats, where limited ground references can be a real problem. A small ferrite bead on every lead, in...
Hello Rainier, I am having the same problem that someone else recently had and it seems to be getting worse. When I turn the Enigma on it reads between -1600...
In what might be a strange coincidence, since upgrading to the latest SW on my Enigma the OAT sensor seems to be reading high by somewhere between 10-15 F. Is...
I hadn't tried that, but just went out and did the reset. At first it went to +30 then climbed to +70 then slowly back to -10. It hovered there + or - 20 for...
Well, I'm afraid that sounds very much like one of those infamous caps having gone south. Very strange - we have been using the exact same circuit for years. ...
Just found this group, so hello. Building a Sonex the slow way, planning the expensive stuff in the wee hours. Afraid all I can contribute so far are...
There was a thread at the beginning of February about back-up gauges. This is what I wrote in message 494: <quote> One thing that hasn't been mentioned is a...
Bryan, I'm also building a Sonex. I just asked for Voyager dimensions last week - Ranier does not have them yet. It will be a dubious fit even with an extended...
Hi Mark Regarding the horsepower under the bonnet of the Enigma. Any need for additional processor power at some future point will not be a major issue. The...
... Here is a long quote from an even longer article on Vans web site (www.vansaircraft.com/pdf/hp_limts.pdf) <quote> Remember, as the airplane climbs, there...
There is not a huge difference in performance between the processor in Enigma and Odyssey. The main difference is that Odyssey has much more and faster memory....
Hi Bryan, Welcome. Trust you will enjoy your stay! ... South African petroleum giant, SASOL (the official 2007 Springbok rugby team sponsor), currently has an...
Hi Bryan - I'm also building #590. The Enigma fits the standard panel perfectly and is what I plan to use. I'm keeping the 30 deg panel tilt because I think...
If you don't mind... ... German soaring guys can be mighty fussy at times... Or an MGL Smart Single or Maxi or Flight II ... by a German from South Africa... ...
Hi Ranier, I let my fingers get a little ahead of my brain - you have covered these points before. More along the lines of what I was thinking is that the...
Hello Rainier, Today I opened my Enigma and had a look inside. My first thought was "wow, way too many components and cables, close it up and send it to Matt...
Andreas ! you win the prize for "most impressive Enigma repair in the U.S.". Well done. Yes, it is normal that the VSI will take anything up to a minute ...
I've noticed the same behavior The OAT should of been around 12-13 degrees Celsius and the meter was showing 19 degrees after the upgrade to 1.07.. ...
... Well, well, .... I am planning on buying both a Pipistrel Virus and an Odyssey as PFD ( 'd better say "OFD": Only Flight Display !), but your assertions...
No, read my post carefully. From an ultimate strength point of view, this aircraft cannot match many of the contemporary current aircraft. But it was never...
... Well, I'll just quote one example which is representitive of the rest. The fuel flow did not work. After locating the flow sender we found the sender...
