    Subject: Pulsar 1 to Pulsar XP conversion
    From: Sonja Englert <paqs345@gmail.com>
    Hi Group, A number of Pulsar 1 kit owners have expressed the wish to upgrade their Pulsar to a 4-stroke engine. This is generally not possible due to the higher weight of the engine and the low gross weight their structure was designed for. I have now examined the wood wing and fuselage structure in detail, calculated the loads for a gross weight increase and came up with a number of reinforcements which brings the kit up to the same strength as the Pulsar XP. This allows the use of a Rotax 912 engine and increases all other limitations to those of a Pulsar XP. The reinforcements can only be incorporated before any assembly of the kit has taken place. It is not possible to upgrade a Pulsar 1 after it has been built. I am making the documentation available to Pulsar builders, please see my web site http://www.caro-engineering.com under 'Pulsar Builder's Support' for details. Sonja

    Jeffco 9700 is now Rhino 9700.(( Rhino of pick-up truck liner fame bought them out.)) Google the manufacturers spec sheet and you will find that it is a high quality cement paint with no mention of any aircraft applications. I used it on my XP and found that after 13 years ethanol had almost completely dissolved it all away. I could find no better material so I recoated my fuel cells with it again. I keep a couple pieces of panel coated with 9700 in a quart jar filled with MoGas. Every time I fly I give the jar a good shake. When the coating on the piece in the jar gets thin I will know that it is time to recoat my fuel cells. BTW Rhino also makes a line of epoxy cements.

    Part number AD355-A Does anyone have an extra one of these around? If not, I'm assuming it's made from 4130 steel and I can have my welder make it. Easier if one is on a shelf somewhere. -------- Kris Anderson, Owner Precision Composites Technologies, LLC 509-521-7564 www.precomptech.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=417794#417794 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/image_250.jpg
