    I have a Firestar with a 377 on it. I'm a lightweight toping out at 135lb. The plane has all the power I will ever need. I'd say takeoff is about 100'. Throttle foward, tail up and it's ready to fly. Cruise is in the 50-60mph range. Fuel burn is 2.5-3 gal an hour at cruise. Steve Beatty at Airscrew Performance in Glendale, Arizona has 377's and parts. I started my ultralight career many years ago flying a Teratorn TA with a 377 on it. I've never had a problem with the 377. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=367553#367553

    Dude, Thank you I think the 377 is the engine--for me I am around 200 l bs but the Firefly is quite a bit lighter than the Firestar. What is your r ate of climb? I flew a 330 lb Firestar KXP- for about 10 years with a 503 single carb the climb rate was over 1000ft/min jus wondering about a compa rison . thanks again Chris=0A=0A________________________________=0AFrom: gy rodude <gsafrit1@carolina.rr.com>=0ATo: kolb-list@matronics.com =0ASent: We dnesday, February 29, 2012 2:55 PM=0ASubject: Kolb-List: Re: rotax377=0A=0A =0AI have a Firestar with a 377 on it.
