OK, I have attached another version.
Design considerations:
Rectifiers/Regulators get hot. Connecting two alternators to
one rectifier/regulator could overheat it (when under heavy load).
If the output of two separate rectifier/regulators are
connected together, will the load be shared equally or will one
be overworked and self destruct?
If there is an over-voltage condition, how will the faulty
regulator be identified and shut off quickly (in less than one second)?
If one charging system fails, will the other one then be
overloaded and fail also?
Hundreds of Rotax powered aircraft are flying with modern glass
panels and LED lighting powered by one 20 amp permanent-magnet
dynamo (usually loaded to no more than 80 percent). The
Revmaster should be able to do the same using one alternator at
a time. An outbound leg can use the left alternator and the
inbound leg can use the right alternator. The pilot will know
that both systems work and there will always be a backup.

Hi Joe;
Being internally regulated, each alternator has it's own regulator. I think I
will probably wire so that only one is in use at a time.
Cheers! Stu.
