Hi everyone
About a year ago I got into ultralights bought a Merlin GT and got my license. I recently decided that the 582 rotax is not the engine I should be using since I live in a wooded/mountainous area. I've been looking at the VW, Saburu, Cam 100 and Jabiru engines, they all seem like solid powerplants that would suit my needs. Due to the lack of ultralights in my area I dont really have anyone to ask about different engines, so i'm wondering if anyone on here has had experience with any of these engines?
note: currently i'm leaning towards a VW from greatplanes
