NICE PLANE!! :O What did you use to cover up the "chassis" of the plane?? looks reeeealy good :D :D!! and BTW i was wondering if a 4-stroke single cylinder motorcycle engine could replace that big visa engine?? I want to build like an experimental motor glider out of the ULF-1, and this looks like a heavy engine... Does it take long to build one of those??

Differences with the 2cv engine: aluminium Nikasil cylinder (better cooling), 34hp at 5250rpm,less specific consumption,much more torque,65kg (dry,without muffler and reduction gear).

It's easy to improve the engine to produce up to 40hp (with 2 carbs and a performance camshaft, but with more rpm.

Reduction gear is necessary with this engine (to lover the propeller to 2500rpm maximum) but without you loose 40% trust...

Hello Friend,

Congratulations for very nice plane - place more videos.

Please, what is difference between 2CV a Visa engines ? Is it much difficult to convert engine for ultralight plane ? Please, what is weight, power hp and rpm ?

Cool. You can hear the "whoop, whoop, whoop" in idle. Can't wait to see the video of the first flight. Thumbs up!
