This weekend I will spend doing a taxi test so I can get used to the steering. After I am confident with steering, then I can take her to the runway for high speed test and flight. I will let you know, would love to have you here. Luis On Wednesday, July 27, 2022 at 11:27:19 PM CDT, Dr. Feng Hsu <fenghs...@gmail.com> wrote: Congrats Luis! Your engine sounds like music to my ears! Have you tried the engine sound & behavior at full throttle as well?! I would rather hear the steady & nice sound at full throttle for an extended period of time! Any plans for the first take off during this coming weekend? I may be able to drive over to Dallas and to help recording your first flight on vedo.... cheers, Dr. Hsu On Tue, Jul 26, 2022, 11:18 PM Luis Claudio <dallasbori...@yahoo.com> wrote:
I finally got my engine to idle correctly without issues for the first time. I built this engine three years ago after I purchased it from a Q2 owner. I installed Revmaster 041 heads with stainless steel valves and then put the engine aside while I finished my work on my airplane... move forward three years and it was time to run the engine... Since I had installed a dual electronic ignition, which gave me a lot of trouble to install being that it was the third of its kind for a VW engine (Sam Spanovich has one), that took over a month. the aerocarb that I purchased about the same time as the engine, needed a lot of adjustments, I then found that the engine valves were never adjusted properly (by muah), and I found the right manifold loose. After a very frustrating three months of chasing down problems... the results are in, I hope you enjoy this short video KR2S Idles for the first time. | | | | | | | | | | | KR2S Idles for the first time. | | | Luis R Claudio KR2S N8981S Dallas, Texas
