You could look up who has similar engine/plane-prop combination, and I could run that data on Prop Optimizer Pro. Then having all info about your prop, you can try to carve it yourself or send it to Ed Sterba. I think if you have more available data about propeller you about to buy, it is easier to talk to prop maker and compare with him your calculations than blindly rely on his opinion. Especially when you need 3-bladed prop. And by the way that Prop Optimizer calculations are for free when you register your plane in the database. Few words about database. I am now compiling all info needed to properly run Prop Optimizer. It looks that we are going to need more info that just engine HP an prop pitch and diameter. Please hold for now all inputs until I'll set up a web page where you can enter it.

Ted Fields ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 Aug 2000 20:24:39 EDT To: krnet@mailinglists.org From: AviationMech@aol.com Subject: Props Message-ID: <9a.81ad789.26bf5bc7@aol.com> I have used a varity of props over the seasons. A Rand 3 blade ground adjustable, A Hagey, and a Couple of of Sterba Props. First of all perhaps Ed Sterba might give us any of his VW engine size/power data and which size/style he recommends for the application. Secondly, the most significant impact that I have felt from a prop change was when I installed a Sterba almost constant speed prop. I had gouged the back of my Hagey while crossing Wisconsin and needed a prop to continue my journey. I installed this almost constant speed and gained 10 Kts and 400 RPM all at the same time. The climb was great. over 800 FPM solo. I later splintered that prop in my drive way. I contacted Ed and ordered the 54X52 full blade that is currently installed. I needed to slow the engine down from 3900 RPM (not a typo), and this is what Ed recommended. Now I have trouble developing over 3000 RPM. I estimate my max cruise is going to be around 150, and climb is at 400 FPM.. I will know in a few days. On my flight on saturday my downwind speed was 120MPH @2700 RPM. At this point I'm sure that the engine is not attaining peek HP for take off. To reach Max HP for TO the VW needs to turn between 3400 and 3600, or needs to have a cam installed to reach HP at a lower RPM. I am not aware of anyone selling a cam to accomplish this task. I have run for extended periods at 3600 RPM with normal CHT and Oil temp.

I did some further fuel flow tests today. I was able to self prime from the left tank where I made a modification so the filter is on the pressure side of the pump. However there is still significant air leaking into the system along the line, the flow from the line feeding the carb has lots of air, although the tank is nearly empty and could be sucking air. On the right side where I didn't modify the fuel system to put the filter on the pressure side, I had to manually prime the pump before it would work. Even then it didn't appear to work too hot until I selected the right tank, then flow seemed better. This side also seems to be getting some air as it is not a uniform flow at the end of the line feeding the carb. Again, I was just pushing what AVgas remained in my wing tanks from before the move, so we are talking less than a gallon or two. I also found a small seepage leak when the right side is under pressure but not selected... *sigh*. Some good news... some more work to do. But it felt good to get out and work on the airplane. I also drove out to Williams Field Airport which was an Airforce base last time I was out. One of the Local EAA folks recommended it as a good place to taxi test. They are right about this... HUGE place. Unfortunatly not a lot of hangar space for GA, just lots of tiedowns. I'm considering making some nylon straps for my wings so I can tie down in lieu of putting tiedown rings in the wing... I just don't want to cut into the wing and face all the finishing work to get it back. -- Ross ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2000 00:36:39 -0400 To: "krnet" From: "w.g. kirkland" Subject: batteries Message-ID: <000a01c00029$15224340$ab905bd1@kirkland> ------=_NextPart_000_0007_01C00007.8D272DA0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Just found a good source for small, lightweight, powerfull batteries. = Easy to mount, no acid.

This would be liter then the engines above and I remember people with sand rails pumping out 200 HP+ on a 2180 (of course at high RPM). It seems with lower RPM and minimal boost, you could easily pump out 100 HP + and good reliability. Tell me the pros and cons. Tony Mission Viejo ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 07 Aug 2000 11:36:40 EDT To: , From: EagleGator@aol.com Subject: Re: KR> Turbo VW Tony, I've got a Revmaster 2100DT for my KR-2S. I'm planning on using a waste gate to limit the turbo to about 32" boost. The main reason for using a turbo, in my case, is for altitude equalization in cruise. I'll be able to generate the same or slightly more horsepower at 10,000' as the bigger, normally aspirated engines at a lower weight and fuel burn rate. Over-boosting the VW shortens it's useful life and causes other problems that other folks on the list are more technically qualified to discuss. Sure, you can get 200 hp, but for how long and at what risk? If I remember right, the manual for my engine rates it at 80hp (optimistic)on takeoff, 75hp for cruise, and something like 110hp for 30 seconds in an emergency. The different ratings are due to the fact that this setup is full time turbo regulated only by throttle position, and the 30 second limit at 110hp is there presumably to keep the engine from eating itself. The bottom line of this is to use a turbo to normalize the engine at altitude to the sea level rated horsepower rather than over-boost it for more horsepower.

I've had an ad on Barnstormers for a couple of months and gotten one response. The plans are full-size and are meant to be cut up as you build the plane. Finding a good used set is not easy. Bill Stevens has a good website at members.xoom.com/WilliamF4U/WARBuddies.htm with good links to a couple of other sites.

They are not cheap... somthing like $20-30 each if I recall, and that doesn't include the bolts. I had to buy several different length bolts to get a setup with a washer on each end of the mounts. You might want to buy 4 different length bolts first, then pick the one with the right length and buy three more... that is if you do mail order for your hardware. -- Ross "Schmidt, Curtis" wrote: > HEY GUYS: > Does anybody no where to get the rubbers for the Rand plans built engine mount? > I haven't looked anywhere, just thought I'd save a little time by asking! > CURTIS R SCHMIDT > CNC TOOLING & PROGRAMMING > LARNED KANSAS > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To post to the list, email: krnet@mailinglists.org > To unsubscribe, e-mail: krnet-unsubscribe@mailinglists.org > For additional commands, e-mail: krnet-help@mailinglists.org ------------------------------ End of krnet Digest ***********************************
