Hello Folks,
I have started posting photos of the Kolb UltraStar aircraft I am building on
this link at the Rocky Mountain Reliable web site. I am just now learning how
to use the program to upload the files, so be patient with me as I try my hand
at web authoring.
As I add files, I hope to be able to have a page you can go to and see the photos
by section, wings, fuselage, etc. The engine I have now is a brand new Cyuna
470 of 1983 vintage.
I would dearly love to mount a Geo Metro 3 cyl engine modification by Raven Engines
in this bird, however at this time funding won't allow me to do that. I
know that this airframe could handle the Geo engine with a few modifications in
the airframe, and it would be a better performing bird for the modification.
It would certainly be safer to fly as far as the issue of flying a 2 stoke v
4 stroke in the mountains. However one must go with what one has for the time
being.
My plans are to add a 6.5 gal fuel tank to each wing, and the front mounted 5 gallon
tanks I already have. This amount of fuel onboard should give me a much
extended range of flight.
If you wish for me to keep you posted on the progress of this building project,
including all the flight testing, please let me know.
Michael Heit
