>>Like the wheel brake when stopping? Yes, that's it. Same heat, same fires except with the wheel brake, you are normally there to enjoy them. 7 kW is a whack of current at most safe voltages.
>>I call all piston motor glider engines boat anchors. My great grandfather called them that too… at least the water cooled two cylinder two stroke in his Scott. However, they worked OK back in 1928 and they're working that way now. The rotary, why, they sell a 10 hour version don' they! And who of us is going to do the claimed 400 hours of most piston or rotary engines. One will vibrate to pieces and the other burst into flames :-) D _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
