Subject: | switch for Flap motor |
Views appreciated on whether the flap motor up/down switch should be momentary
(mom) off (mom) or three position (on) off (on) DPDT
I see that the motor switches off and limits at each end and I am thinking that
holding it down/up white it motors might be tedious.
I presume the flap motor is necessary with the extended baggage bay. Something
else to get wrong on landing (pump on, prop fine, gear down and.. flaps down
etc)
Thanks for all responses on other threads very much appreciated.

Well spotted Richard. Definitely worth talking to Duc about the possibility though.
I've been running a Duc Windspoon on another aircraft and am very happy with it
and don't know of any problems with them so they seem like a decent supplier.

You are right Graeme,
I always offer a ON OFF (ON) for my clients. The flap with limit is s l o
w. On a go around just hit the switch and go.
If not on a time budget:. Jerry Hope made a switch mod where he fabbed a fl
ap shape handle, then took apart the switch to prevent the baton from rotat
ing and installed the flap shaped handle to the now non rotating baton. Go
rgeous work.
Otherwise, just a plane switch as described is a few bucks and worth it. I
f the PFA allows.

Just to clarify Rogers post about the Eprop Glorieuse propeller.
It is a VP propeller but it is not yet on the market. It is being tested and once
the company is confident of achieving a TBO of 2000 hours, yes thats right
2000 it will be brought to market for the Rotax ULS. A version for the UL will
be some time behind that.
However, their Durandel 80 ground adjustable propeller gives excellent performance
on a Rotax UL. It has a ESR, extended speed range as they call it.
There are several fitted to Europa aircraft in France including my own and I am
happy with its performance.
Regards
John
