Our club is considering swaping the 582 on our Dragonfly tug with the 583 to improve climb and turn around. It is operated mainly at full throttle so the peaky powerband may not be a big issue. Reliability and fuel consumption is a concern and would appreciate any input on that compared to the 582.
Thanks, Ken
