    Subject: "What's my Contribution used for?" [PLEASE READ!]
    --> JabiruEngine-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Listers, Some have asked, "What's my Contribution used for?", and this is certainly a valid question. Here are just a few examples of what your direct List support enables. It provides for the very expensive, business-class, high-speed T1 Internet connection used on the List, insuring maximum performance and minimal contention when accessing List services. It pays for the regular system hardware and software upgrades enabling the highest performance possible for services such as the Archive Search Engine and List Browser. It pays for 16+ years worth of online archive data available for instant random access. And, it offsets the many hours spent writing, developing, and maintaining the custom applications that power this List Service such as the List Browse, Search Engine, and PhotoShare. But most importantly, your List Contribution enables a forum where you and your peers can communicate freely in an environment that is free from moderation, censorship, advertising, commercialism, SPAM, and computer viruses. How many places on the Internet can you make all those statements about these days? I will venture to say - next to none... It is YOUR CONTRIBUTION that directly enables these many desirable aspects of this most valuable List service. Please support it today with your List Contribution. Its the best investment you can make in your Sport - BAR NONE! List Contribution Web Site: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you for your support!

    0.50 MIME_BOUND_NEXTPART Spam tool pattern in MIME boundary 0.01 RCVD_DOUBLE_IP_LOOSE Received: by and from look like IP addresses --> JabiruEngine-List message posted by: bnoon12@comcast.net Hi All, I have been "lurking" long enough(6 weeks on the various lists). Over the summer I got my Jabiru 3300 to put on a Thorp T-211. At this point, I have received a "temporary" mount based on a mount that is testing on a Thorp T-211 in Scottsdale and am waiting (impatiently) for the new cowling assembly from Jabiru Pacific that may or may-not work for the Thorp. I am in the process of putting on the mounts and trying to set up my wiring, but like most out there, it seems, between ignorance, lack of gobs of money, and timidity (on top of family priorities) it is taking an inordinate amount of time. At this point, I am mainly concerned with wiring and tools needed and recommendations for books, references, and knowledgable helping hands. Believe it or not, I have a fairly strong background in wiring computer equipment, so know my way around some of the tools, but setting up the fuses and where to put things has me buffaloed. I know once I get started things will fall into pl ace. So... My first question, is about the battery recommended. It seems the lists note one type in particular, but at this point, I am open to suggestions. Also, what about backup batteries. It seems that the 3300 needs a bit more power to get it started, from what I read, so want to make sure this makes sense. I am thinking about two smaller batteries instead of one larger one. The next question is about electrical tools. I don't have a good crimp tool for the SubD pin connections and plan on getting those, but what else would you all recommend. I would sure like to see examples of wiring and see how things are put together.

    Subject: Using the matronics lists -Greetings and introductions
    --> JabiruEngine-List message posted by: "Jeff Small" <zodiacjeff@msn.com> Since we're getting to know each other I hope you don't mind a few overviews on how the matronics-lists work. You'll get no advertising and I've yet to believe any spam has come from the list. Matt Dralle runs a good service. I've been on the zenith matronics list since '99. If you just hit "reply" to a post then all the original post and any others that are attached will be sent out. My opinion is that this wastes bandwidth and makes the list less user-friendly. Please, please take a few seconds to edit out (snip) unimportant parts of the original post. Doing so is just good list manners. When all the "junk" goes into the archives, searches take forever and waste your time. If you have something to say that won't be of interest to a dozen people six weeks from now, please add "do not archive" to the end of your message. The post will make it into the daily list but not into the archives. The archives will be much easier to use than the Yahoogroup type. At the bottom of each matronics message you will find links into archives and search engines - very, very good stuff. Play around with them for a while BTW, you'll also be able to call up any of the other matronics links through the search engine so questions like the electrical one will be accessible though the aeroelectics/Electrocuted Bob lists. You'll like this method. BTW, the battery??? Odyssey 625. regards jeff do not archive

I've got 58 hours on it now and flew a J400 for 18 hours also with no problems. I'm not sure why you would want to replace the Honda ingition modules, with something more complex. I suggest you touch base with the Canadian dealer at www.jabirucanada.com to get feedback on a cold climate. You should also check out http://www.jabiru.flyer.co.uk/ for more user experience. -----Original Message----- From: owner-jabiruengine-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-jabiruengine-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Howard Carter Subject: JabiruEngine-List: Another lurker --> JabiruEngine-List message posted by: Howard Carter <howado@cwia.com> I am building a CH701 and plan to use a Jabiru3300.

See http://www.usjabiru.com/Tech%20Tips.htm for lots of hints including cold starts. Warm wx starting is fantastic. regards jeff do not archive

    Subject: Re: Another lurker
    --> JabiruEngine-List message posted by: "Rex & Jan Shaw" <rexjan@bigpond.com> Howard, Rex Shaw here from Australia. I got your e'mail below. I'm a bit unsure how this came about except that I've had about 6 similar re Jabaru engines list today. I was a subscriber but unsubscribed a few weeks ago. I joined as I train in a Jabiru and had a vested interest although I own a Kitfox MKIV Classic Speedster with a Rotax 582 in it. I guess all these messages are coming in to try and rouse some interest in the list. I never did see a thing in the time I was subscribed although the Kitfox list is very active. Anyway re the ignition problem with the Jabiru. I just thought I'd answer you as I might be able to help. Both the Jabiru and my Rotax need 300 RPM to fire up and like you obviously think, so do I, the systems are useless and shouldn't be permitted on a plane. I guess they are there because they are cheap to supplyband install for the manufacturer. I have built a number of CDI's over the years of varying types and I am a recently retired electronics technician so I can talk about the subject with some authority and maybe of some basic help to you. My concern re the 300 RPM needed to get ignition is that if one is down in the bush with just a slightly low battery one can't prop start it. When I bought my plane 12 months ago there was a new ordinary motorcycle battery fitted the day before I flew it home across very deserted country for 3,000 kilometres from Perth In Western Australia to Loxton In South Australia. Now all the way home we did get the plane started each time but it did not start easy really. After that leaving the plane in the hanger for 2 or 3 weeks we found we needed to jump start it for the first time each day. The prop would appear to be swinging over fine and the battery hanging in fairly well, but it would not start. We persevered with this for 6 months before buying a different type of battery and now it fires up that quick you wouldn,t believe it. Our Club Jabiru we use for training had one of these batteries in from new about 3 years ago. A couple of times this winter when it has been real cold it wouldn't start until we warmed it up with a blow heater for 20 minutes. Now the weather is warmer we have no trouble again and it fires at the first touch of the button. So despite it's good record it is weakening but after 3years and.1,000 hours of training work I reckon that's amazing. The batteries I am talking about are Odyssey by Hawker. Mine is a PC625 and the clubs is a Model 700. They are identical except I imported mine from www.batteries4everthing.com so it is USA whereas the clubs was bought in Australia and it's called a Model 700 to stop cross warranty claims. These batteries go under several different type names like AGM, absorbed glass mat or recumbant etc. Basically they do not leak acid if split etc and can be shipped with no problems. The ordinary motorcycle battery I originally had in mine is what is called a flooded wet cell. Now a flooded wet cell loses charge very quickly if left standing. An AGM [Odyssey] will only drop to 50% after 2 years. Also the AGM has a much lower internal resistance and so delivers more start current. It also has a very slightly higher voltage output. This all adds up to a very big difference and has solved my immediate problem Put BR-101 into your seach engine and I think you'll come up with this document explaining about batteries. However although one of these batteries should solve your starting problems if you don't have worn starter bushes or something else, there still remains this rotten 300 RPM problem. We are just covering it up using a good battery. Right in Australia we are governed with our ultralights or small recreational planes by what was called AUF [ Australian Ultralight Federation ] but has just changed its name to RAA [ Recreational Aviation Australia ] They put out a magazine each month that was called Australin Ultralights but is now just Recreational Aviation Australia. In the October 2004 edition there is an article on pages 36,37,40 & 41 by Geoff Hennig how he modified his Jabiru to get it to prop start. Basically he made up a new ignition using a second hand hall sensor unit from the wreckers. This is instead of points. He then made up a high voltage switch so he can swap between this to start at zero RPM and the original system. Frankly I thought it all a bit messy but he too was worried about the problem and he did solve it. If you can get your hands on the magazine you can read all the details. Perhaps from the library or import it as a back copy. Actually at this moment it is the last issue yet recieved. Let's discuss what we have. The Jabiru has the coils in the modules placed close to magnets in the cicumference of the flywheel. As the manets pass they generate both the high voltage and the signal pulse to determine time of firing. My Rotax on the other hand uses coils close to magnets on the flywheel to pickup a signal pulse but the high voltage is generated by the alternator on the end of the crankshaft. I haven't measured this voltage but it is probably about 2 to 400 volts. It chages a capacitor. This charge is then dumped across a coil that steps it up to 20 t0 50,000 volts. This happens when the signal pulse is recieved, it triggers an electronic switch we call an SCR [ silicon controlled rectifier ] I can easily make a little inverter to supply the higher voltage to charge the capacitor that will run from battery voltage even if it is low. Then my only minimum RPM limit is enough revs to supply the signal pulse. I think this will be much lower than 300. So if you wanted to swap whats in the Jabiru for one of these systems there is a basis to start. Also of course as you suggest there is numerous bits and pieces to be sought out and used. I realise you are hoping to find a solution already worked out for your exact situation and I hope you do. However here is some basic thoughts and a semi answer in an AGM battery. Don't underestimate what one of these will do. Prices vary dramatically though so please check. That's why I impoted mine from USA to Australia. Despite exchange rates and freight it still worked out half the price of purchasing locally. www.batteries4everything.com was the cheapest I found and their service was excellent. Their price was $57.42 if I remember right. One last thought re a Jabiru conversion. I would consider what a lot of motorcycles do. They use double ended coils as does my Rotax. They can be used on the Jabiru to good advantage to do away with those distributors. The system can finish up feeding a spark that is redundant to a cylinder when the piston is at TDC but on the non firing stroke when the piston has risen pushing the exhaust gasses out and about to descend to suck in the air/fuel mixture. A redundant spark at this time does no harm. OK Howard, please think about all this and if I can be more help please get back to me. I haven't discussed anything in too much depth as I don't know how much you are following me. However I can do so where required when I know what you can follow and what you want to know. Hope this helps, Kind Regards, Rex. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Howard Carter" <howado@cwia.com> Subject: JabiruEngine-List: Another lurker > --> JabiruEngine-List message posted by: Howard Carter <howado@cwia.com> > > I am building a CH701 and plan to use a Jabiru3300.
