@leviterande On the Eggmotor site I mention about a kart hub and have an associated link and also a non-scale diagram of the bolt pattern requirement for drilling the prop. You can email directly at eggmotor@yahoo.co.uk for more info.
:o)

@lookupparagliding Thanx for the info and yes I have been , however I had a hard time to orientate myself there.. I tried to find out How to attach the prop to the shaft? Any tips?

@leviterande You can order a filter and adaptor from AffordableGoKarts and it's easy to fit. Also you can order an RLV exhaust and silencer. The RLV type is bent in such a way so as not to interfere with the prop circle. Drilling the stock jet out to 0.85mm - 0.9mm will give you the required increase in fuel flow to complement the improved breathing. Is 30kg thrust adequate for your application? Have you been on the Eggmotor web site?

@lookupparagliding Hi and thanx for the reply: you said "Simple modifications such as improving the breathing (free-flow air filter and exhaust) and re-jetting the carburettor accordingly" Is there any tutorial on just this modification?
Concerning the airfilter and exhaust it is just installing them , right?

@leviterande Hello, The net horsepower of a gx200 engine is around 5hp and so with a 34" - 36" sized prop, I would estimate no more than 20-22kg thrust at around 3500rpm. Simple modifications such as improving the breathing (free-flow air filter and exhaust) and re-jetting the carburettor accordingly should get thrust up to about 30kg.

Enjoyed the video man. BTW what is the thrust of the GX200 without tuning?

@Hogasofa The prop is from Xoar International (PJD-P 34"x10") and the glider (chute) I got from FlyBubble in the UK.
