Rotax 915?

Love to hear John McBean's take on this?

Yes I would too. My 60k number comes merely from forum (other) surfing/research. So take that fwiw

Hopefully I am mistaken and it would come out cheaper and lighter than others who have done it report it to be.

I think it is like freeze dried food on a camping trip. It is expensive but gets the job done. For the short field back country flyer, it is relatively light weight, and makes takeoff power to much higher altitudes than most people fly.

Does everyone need it? No, most people probably don’t. Would most people appreciate Santa hanging one on their Kitfox, probably yes.

For what it’s worth, my garage is pretty cluttered up, so I would have no objections if Santa just left it on the carpet by the fireplace. But if he doesn’t leave one, my number will be less than 915.

What prop is the 915 designed to use? How much is it?
