    T46craft Do you have any drawings of the wing? I would like to have a set. Better yet, would you share any information to the home built community. I’m sure this design would improve ultralight safety

    What happened to the Ultravair?

    Some on dismiss the idea of Methanol injection but I still cling to the idea. Maybe just burn a high octane ethanol. That’s my plan and I’m sticking to it, unless something greater comes along Nitrous injection is effective at any rpm, used sparingly, the Ultravair will make a fine little engine

    Help with UL design, need plywood

    David Would you be willing to share a little information about the ultralight you are designing? Maybe I have made an incorrect assumption, but I am interested in any design cooked up by a welder and machinist!! I am just a lowlife 11Bulletstopper with a chute on my back and a rucksack hanging...

    Maybe the best UL wing design ?

    Thanks a lot David. I am just learning about the design thanks to you, and it doesn’t take much time studying the plans to realize it is superior to pretty much everything else in that style of plane. Love the wing.

    Belt Drives and design

    I have found out here on HBA that if you state a misnomer about an item, more knowledgeable people will correct the statement, and that is where the learning begins!

    An elastometric coupling is far different than the lovejoy

    Belt Drives and design

    Nice Bill Thanks A shot from the hip says a lovejoy on the output shaft would break all the influences the power plant has on the driven mechanism

    Belt Drives and design

    One has to first eliminate operator ignorance/stupidity. So is this topic just gonna go in random direction with no specific solutions/best practice? Could the discussion be limited to FF engines? Break out the engine hp ratings? Break out the gear drives Break out the shaft drives Etc Etc Etc
