    Landing Tips? I need help!

    I recently got a Kolb Firestar II with one seat. 503 single carb. I too found that it would completely stop flying during landing if I got too slow. I installed my own homemade Vortex Generators which did help a lot. I may try and move them forward to see if it gets even better.

    EGT/CHT for Rotax two stroke

    I use a Grand Rapids Engine Monitor. It gives you a lot of readings. Dual cht, dual egt, rpm, water temp if needed, hours, volts, and probably much more than I know or use.

    Selling

    I'm going to sell it piece by piece. Engine, gearbox, instruments etc. Going to keep the wing and use it for a countertop or something in my garage. That way there are no issues to worry about.
