Okay, round two. The prop I installed on my slingshot was a warp three
blade with taper tips, 66 inches. Way shorter than my 70 incher. The
blades were smooth and clean as they should be, not full of cloth marks AND
the blades were even, instead of one tip being skinnier. The second time I
installed them I had the plane tied down and really ran it up. As it were,
the pitch was not correct at 12 and a half degrees, needed more but it was a
lot quieter than mine. Only problem was the harmonics were still there. I
could hear it better with this prop. It is definately coming from the
engine. It is not rolling, just making the harmonics sound. Although I
believe I would be better off with new and better blades from WD, I dont at
this time feel they would send them to me because I dont think they are the
actual culprit, only the device to amplify the sound. The blades are still
crap. I do not know where to go next. I guess I will have to go to Florida
and pay to have it checked out at Lockwood and if it is a warranty issue,
maybe they can fix it. I have plenty of proof it was there from the
beginning. Other than that, I guess I will have to live with it. Sorry, I
thought for a fleeting minute I had the cure. Ted Cowan, Alabama,

Sure was disapointed that the [Fly-Kolb] plane was not makeing it's
usual round every 3 min.
Spent quite a bit of time at the Kolb tent, as usual whenever I talk
with Bryan Melborn I learned
something new, also his wife Helen gave me a few tips on useing my
new digital camera.
Was good to see Travis as I talk to him so often on the phone {great

You have been giving Warp Drive a pretty bad rap about your prop.
I believe Warp Drive stands behind their life time guarantee of
satisfaction, but they can do nothing if you do not communicate with them.
If I was as dissatisfied with my prop as you seem to be, instead of whining
on the internet and doing nothing, I think I would pick up the telephone and
get working on a solution.
I have been flying Warp Drive Props for 16 years and over 3,000 hours, on
912's, on Kolb aircraft. Never had a prop problem I did not create myself.
Along the way I haven't heard of defective Warp Drives, and I am sure Daryl
does not want a single one out there to tarnish his company's good
reputation.
It is about 220 miles from your airstrip to Ronnie Smith's airstrip, a three
hour flight. Takes about an hour to pull the gearbox, inspect it, reshim
it, and put it back on the engine. A quick and simple job. A lot closer
than Lockwood in Sebring, FL. If you didn't want to fly, you can pull the
gear box and drive to Ronnie's, or box it up and ship it to him. Gearbox
removal on a 912 is a quick and easy job.
Warp Drive can not fix your problem if you do not talk to them. Daryl said
he had not heard from you in well over a year.

Ted,
Sounda likw you are making progress. If your original propeller was a three blade,
the move from 72 to 66 inches gave you a decrease in propeller interia.
It would be interesting to see what would happen if you could borrow a lower inertia
propeller, such as, a Powefin.

I had a Kiev Hot prop on my MK-III Xtra with a Rotax 912-S. It is a beautiful
looking prop, but much to lightly made. The blades, the hub, and even the spacer
looked to fragile to last over time. It always worried me, and I found myself
checking it constantly. What pushed me over the edge was when a local airline
maintenance inspector that also works on experimental airplanes said " I
don't see how that can last hundreds of hours " I ordered and installed a Warp
Drive prop soon after.
Installing he Warp drive was the best thing I could have done safety wise. The
warp drive stayed together when I ran my Lockwood Pressure Gage set through the
prop while balancing the carbs at full power [Shocked] The Kiev Prop would
have most definitely come apart and over-sped the engine. On a pusher,
things do go through the prop, muffler parts, oil caps, you never know what,
but it does happen. The very strong Warp Drive prop is a huge safety advantage
on a pusher.

If that weren't enough, Jim took a detour (8 hours round trip) on his way to S&F

Two wonderful gentlemen pilots, who deserve a round of applause.

Kiev prop.......... I have a 68" 3 blade on my FS II; it replaced a WD.
Reason I changed is because the Warp got a small split in the end of one
blade & the slightly used Kiev was available for a real good price.
Kiev is better looking, I like the white front & the scimitar shape, it is
quieter on my plane {but I have about a 3" extension on it}, it's lighter,
performance seems about the same as the Warp. Price is about the same.
Robert Broadwell has a MkIIIC on floats & a Highlander, both with 912S at
our field. They both have Kiev's- 70" I think. He especially likes the
toughness of the Kiev, as he has close to 1,000 water takeoffs w/ that prop
[float-plane props take a beating from the spray].

this is some great coincidence I will soon be relocating to Pompano and its good

really enjoyed the airport. Probably the best airport in that part of Florida
and the main reason I am going to settle in that area just as soon as I sell
my house out here in Arizona. Maybe I'll finally get a chance to finish building

I believe the WD in 3 blades is a little over the MOI limits of the B box. Someone
did some MOI measurements (can't remember who or where) a while back and I
believe the WD was found to be over in terms of inertia in 3 blades. Even so,
the throttle response will be pretty poor and the motor will be hard to start,
etc.
If it were me with a 503 B box, I'd start with 66" in 2 blades and run the taper
tip for both performance reasons and to keep the MOI down. Course, Daryl and
the folks at WD will know all the numbers on this.
I had a 68" 3 blade taper on my FSII with the 3.47:1 C box. That's about the best
possible combination you can get on that plane, tho it does add extra weight
in kind of a bad place.

Subject: | Any suggestions for sticking altimeter?- try SPF-50 |
Well, your best bet outside of either buying a new one or OH the one you have is
to open it up and spray some SPF-50 into it.
It takes it sometime to work its magic, but providing you don't have any "real
Mechanical" defects it will fix the problem.
Keep in mind that its not an approved repair or any other "proper" repair but since
we are dealing with an experimental or Ultralight you can do as you wish.
I am a recent convert to the Spf-50 and Corrosion-X treatments and I can say this,
it has corrected some anomalies to include the keyboard on this current HP
Laptop of about 8 years of usage. Among "other" things.

Hello folks,
Was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a sticking altimeter? I know the
obvious suggestion is buy a new one. Probably will do that. It is sticking
around 500 ft. That is kinda where I spend a lot of time. Must have wore the
mechanism out there. It will come unstuck with a few taps or with enough gain
in altitude.
We stay in a very humid and wet environment. I think the guts have rusted or something.
Just wondering if there are I tricks out there for this?
Looking at AS&S for new altimeter. Trying to work on squawk list for MV. Yesterday,
flew 2.3 hours with 9 cross wind landings (15 knots) to build up my wind
threshold for the trip out west. Trying to get ready.
Appreciate any help or suggestions. Stay safe.

The Kiev has nickel leading edge plating, as does the Warp Drive, this makes it
suitable for flying in Rain, Floats, where water would be hitting the leading
edge. Either prop would be fine on floats. This does NOT make the Kiev a tough
prop, to the contrary, the Kiev is very light and fragile. For mounting
on a pusher Kolb MK III, you need a very strong prop capable of staying together
when a foreign object goes through it, not one that is ONLY resistant to water
spray.
Look at the picture below, putting 100 HP into that narrow aluminum prop spacer
is not something I was comfortable with. My Warp Drive prop has a much bigger
mounting bolt pattern and much larger diameter spacer. Both the Hub and Prop
blades are extremely light, definitely not what I want considering the strong
power pulses of the Rotax 912. But if anyone wants a good, slightly used Kiev
Prop for a Rotax 912, I have one for sale !!! As much as I would like to sell
this prop and get back some of the money I paid for it, I am not the type
of person that would sell something that might get someone hurt in their Kolb
just so that I can profit. If anyone wants to buy this prop, they will get my
honest opinion about and its potential hazards first.

Subject: | Another cross country - Vidalia AirShow |
Hi all. Got my muffler back on after replacing the internal and external gaskets
but the thing is still leaking.
Other than that, my plane is flying great. I took a little longer cross country
trip (farther than Douglas) this past Saturday to Vidalia, Georgia. They had
an airshow for their Onion Festival, and the EAA chapter there was wanting some
planes for their static display and was offering free admission if you flew
in. So I flew my Kolb Mark II and my gyrocopter friend flew formation with
me. Our RV-9 friend flew up also and beat us coming and going of course. That
is a fast plane. It took me an hour and fifteen to get there and and hour and
a half on the way back. Straight trip up there is 56NM but the route we took
was 62NM one way. It was a gorgeous day for flying.
I really enjoyed myself. We really had to keep an eye on our planes though. Parents
either didn't watch their kids or they just let their kids do whatever
they wanted. One little girl thought my horizontal stabilizer was a seat. Before
we knew it another girl had climbed onto the RV-9 and when she got down she
started shaking his flaps really hard. Some teens plopped into the seat of
the gyrocopter and started flipping switches. So we watched the airshow from
under my wings (thank the Lord for that shade or we wouldn't have made it through
the day...it was so hot). We'll have to make some big Don't Touch signs
if we go to another show.
Anyways, here's the link to the slideshow:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZ4m2qudqvs
Oh, concerning my elevator... The other picture must have been a shadow or the
angle. The gyrocopter pilot said my elevator was straight out when flying straight
and level.

Hi, Ron,
Welcome aboard. Let us know when you arrive. I'm sure we can learn from each other,
and it will be great to have a sister ship to fly with.

Be looking forward to seeing you at Monument Valley.
Biggest festivity we have is sitting under the wing of someone's Kolb
telling lies and gourging ourselves up at the Gouldings Restaurant.
Once in a while we get out and fly around the monuments, especially the new
guys.

John,
? The wife wants to know if she will be the only girl there?I suggested she bake
a batch of her toll house cookies,to share and that would pretty much guarantee
her plenty of company.She said thats not what she meant! But I will keep working
on the cookie angle just in case.Hope to see you all about the 14th .

No, your wife will not be the only girl there. In addition to Arty, who
is flying in, there will be other girls there. She'll most likely have
plenty company.
My assumption is based on the past flyins.
Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Let's be careful with our wording. Your wife will not be the only WOMAN there
- there will be others of the female persuasion.:>)
I mention this because of a funny thing that happened when I was at Sun n Fun.
I was talking to a float plane pilot (whom I have never met, so he was just a
voice on the phone.) He told me that if I met any girls, to send them over to
the Splash In and he'd give them a free ride.
I'm busy promoting the Penelope Pilot Project, which encourages girls to spread
their wings, hopefully through aviation but also in any other way. So when an
excited 8 year old girl came to see me and my Drifter, I gave her parents the
float pilot's invitation.
You can guess the ending to this story. He called me that evening, saying that
he is a single guy and he's looking for "girls" who are over 21 !!

Dave and/or Jeff,
Would you happen to have Steven Green's new e-mail address? The old one I have
is not working. Guess he ain't a kolbdriver no more.
I would appreciate it. I have had the priviledge of sharing some XC trips with
Steven G and it was more fun than I deserve. We both love to hear each other
talk funny.
Do not archive.

Thanks too much,
