ShawnM wrote: Sun Jul 18, 2021 9:33 pm 3Dreaming is correct along with Roger and everyone else, ditch the Tempest and ONLY use the Rotax filter DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY for the Rotax engine.

This is the filter you want on your Rotax engine:

Re: Light Sport Weight Limit

To further the point about "there are airplanes for every pilot..." My Rotax 912 ULS powered RANS S-6ES Coyote II cost less than 1/5 what a Bristel would cost, but also delivers a completely different aviation experience... Where the Bristel is a sleek, fast, sexy low-wing speed demon (at...

After a quick inspection, I saw a 4-5 inch opening at the back on the sides. First thought was I forgot close the latch, then looked up and the inside portion of the ...
