Hello Paul, the other unit has been dismantled now, it used a ROS 125cc engine in a homemade frame, search YouTube for Homebuilt Power Unit. I've watched your new videos, keep 'em coming. Pete
It is essentially the same engine and frame, the difference is flying seated or prone. Many people prefer seated I prefer prone, possibly because all my experience prior to powered flying was prone. Seated alleviates the neckache, allows you to read a map on your lap, drink a flask of tea and read a newspaper (with 20mph+ wind in ya face ha ha!) Pete
G'day Pete,
What exactly is the 22hp motor?
What sort of propeller is it?
Fun flying you did on this video.
Paul
