    Subject: Electrical problem on a 18T
    Hy again never one without two.........waiting for the third to come!!! last week a friend pilot on FALCON900 was in copilot in my 18T. We landed and afetr shuting down I went out. He stayed and looked at the panel. Then he saw a switch not in the good position so he switched it down....bad luck it should have stayed in the middle position. It was the landing light. The light itself was not visible but I think there may be a relay somewhere consuming some electricity. When I came back battery was too low to activate the starting valve.... So I asked a frien owner of a Yak3 to help me with his park group. He came with a strange very sophisticated group pluged on the sector. He chooses the 24 volts, and hold a small button. When I turned on my battery on the park position it was like all was vibrating. He said that it was fine and he shoul press the button before I start. So we did. I heard two bangs..... Motor started fine, I switched of the park and passed on the main battery. Then now, the testing functions of my alarm panels does not work anymore. I mean the alarm comes on and off (gear, flaps, generator, trim ..) all working fine. But when I press the testing button...no light is coming on. Is there a fuse?? arelay???? anything else. Please I need some help regarding this subject also. Thanks a lot and good day -- Didier BLOUZARD didier.blouzard@gmail.com 0624243672

    Subject: Chinese 3 blade prop hubs
    From: "Harv" <martin.harvey@kbr.com>
    Morning all Does anyone know if the Chinese ever produced a prop hub that accepts 3 x J9-G1 prop blades. ( have a feeling I' seen a picture of it somewhere?) If it exists did they produce enough that one could be obtained? Cheers Harv Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=327389#327389

Some observations... Performance is very good in the climb. Not a surprise, there is drag at reduced power / RPM. Landing required some power to maintain airspeed. No problem, just different. May require some hub changes. When Bill Blackwell did the first test flight last week, RPMs jumped up past 160 KIAS. I noticed the same. Jill and Carl will chase this for me.

    Theoretically, this should perform well as a cruise prop. So far, have done only one short airport-to-airport flight. Seemed to need about 600 mm manifold pressure with RPM at 82% for 120 to 140 KIAS. Will let you know the stable settings and airspeed after a cross country flight towards the end of the month.

    As propeller disk size increases the static thrust increases. As the disk size increases so does drag. Static thrust does not directly relate to higher cruise speed. Static thrust does increase climb performance at the cost of higher cruise speed with large dia props. Go faster add more blades and reduce dia. No free ride. MT says that the blade shape has little to do with performance between their straight blade or curved blade. It just depends on what you like to look at. Sikorsky developed a variable dia rotor system for the tilt rotor that demonstrates this in a way over the top example. It increases the cruise speed as the rotors are retracted and disk drag decreases. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=327424#327424

    Just an observation since I'm not a CJ kinda guy but flying under square vs over square is costing you in performance. If you are setting pitch at 82% you should have your manifold pressure at 82 to 85% depending on altitude for the single stage super charger. What are the nominal prop and manifold settings for the CJ from the handbook? I thought CJs reported prop revolutions as RPM not %RPM? I do not have my YAK 52 pilots handbook at hand currently to quote verbatim from but... I use nominal 1 settings for best economy as 60-62% pitch and 60 -65% manifold pressure. Square would be 60-62% and 60-62mmHg. Nominal 2 is 64% and 65 mmHg in the RU manual as I memorized. Over square would be 64% RPM and 70%. at higher manifold pressures you have the engine pushing the prop not the prop pulling the engine AT high Rpm but low manifold pressure. You are akin to putting the car in second gear to climb a hill but giving it little gas by not mashing the accelerator so the engine loads up and stalls. If you increase mmHg (manifold pressure) to square 8o% and 800 mmHg I think your cruise speeds at the higher performance power setting will improve to around 160-170 it's range. Now maybe I've just committed mental masturbation here if the initial post was a typo. 600 mm manifold was really 800 mm.???

    Doc, This flight was not a good test. Just from DVT to FFZ and in formation with another CJ and a T6... with purposely slower indicated airspeeds. As such the MP was all over the place for station keeping. Need to take a bone fide cross flight to better appreciate the performance. Will do this on the 29th up to Kingman to visit Jill and Carl. Also, was flying with a zero time M-14P which now has only about 1.5 hours. Still need to do a break in. Lots going on.

    Subject: Whirl Wind Prop
    Hey, I agree on the M14P settings, just be a little cautious with the word "square" . 620 mm is about 24 inches and 62% is about 1830 RPM. That would be considered as "Over Square" by most "flat engine" pilots.

    Doc, That's the hope. Once I do a proper break-in on the engine and fly this prop for a while, I'll have a better appreciation for the actual performance. Before this, I was flying the same airplane with the Housai-6 engine and Chinese metal blade. It will be fun to now be able to play with the grown-ups!

    Subject: Whirl Wind Prop
    From: "Bitterlich, Mark G CIV Det Cherry Point, MALS-14 64E" <mark.bitterlich@navy.mil>
    I know I should not comment... but... the Devil made me do it! George said: "That would be considered as "Over Square" by most "flat engine" pilots." GEORGE! Ummm... my "flat engine" runs at 3400 RPM at 48 inches. Just sayin...... Nice to know I am not an "average" flat engine kind of guy! :-) Doc: I never considered the engine to be "pushing" the prop. Interesting concept really. So you're saying that anytime I am "under square", the prop is pulling the engine? So just exactly how does that work? As in, how can the aircraft maintain level flight with that happening? :-) So, .... if you took your YAK-50 to say....15,000 feet.... where would the RPM be, and what would the manifold pressure read, and just how in the heck did you GET there, being "under square" and all? It's just all too darn complicated!

    The Chinese did produce a 3 blade for the HS6A engine. Rather it used 3 j9-g1 blades I have no idea. I had a customer in AU who installed one, he reported that it slowed him down 5 kts. He most likely has it in his hanger if you are interested contact me off list.

    Subject: Re: Whirl Wind Prop
    George makes an interesting point here. I don't think using RPM in percentage and MP in metric units (and/or in percentage of max. allowable MP) is a valid method of establishing "square, under square or over square". Radial engines (unlike typical flat engines) need to operate predominately over-square within the manufacturers limits. For example the typical numbers for the P&W R1340 are as follows. 1. Take-off - (max.) RPM 2250, MP 36" 2. Climb (rated power) 2200 32.5 3. Aerobatic 2000 28-30 4. Cruise 1900 27 1800 26 1750 25 All of these are substantially over square. If we look at the typical cruise of 1800 RPM and 26" (normally referred to as "18 - 26") and convert to percentage & metric :---------- 1800 = 83%, 26" = 660 mm then 83/66 = under sq. and 83/660 = wayover sq. OR using percentage of both numbers:-------- Max. MP = 36", 26" = 72% - 83/72 = under sq. For the Huosai the specified cruise 2 is 1950 RPM at 660 mm/hg OR 26". 1950RPM and 26". "19.5 -26" is nicely oversquare. Not to say that a similar set of numbers could not be developed to utilize percentage RPM and metric MP but it would not be referenced in the accepted Western manner.

    Subject: Cold weather oil woes
    I had a report of an oil filter element rupture in a CJ-6. This case is similar to another a few years back when a Yak lost it's oil cooler due to cold oil and high pressures. Common problem: cold oil and damage soon after start up. In both cases, only assumptions can be made about the triggering event. In This case, the aircraft had been flown for a few years with my system installed and had been flown in even colder weather (34 degrees at the time of failure). Multi-weight oil was used and the engine was pre-heated, but the oil cooler was not heated first. The filter element was sourced locally and was cross-referenced to the one I specify. A few years ago the oil cooler was overhauled by a respected shop. The filter base has a 15psi bypass. The only damage found to date was the base of the element distending and allowing oil to puke. What can an operator do? The first thing is to install pre-heat pads on the oil cooler as well as the gearbox sump and oil tank in addition to pre-heating the engine. Always warm up slowly and completely, monitoring In and Out temps. Regardless of whose system is installed, most filter bases come with 1/4" taps on both In/Out ends. Install pressure gauges or a differential sensor. These should be monitored during warm-up. Craig Payne

    Does anybody know where I can buy "Hull in Motion" insurance for a CJ or Yak in Canada? I was always under the impression that one can't get that kind of insurance for Canadian registered war-birds (like the Nanchang) until a recent gear collapse in Ontario proofed me wrong and I was told the underwriter paid in full. cheers Elmar

    Subject: GT blades for V-530
    As long as we're talking about propeller options, I think we're overlooking the GT blades for the V-530, which have been in use for several years on dozens of airplanes. The Aerostar factory furnishes them on new Yak-52s as an option (I think they said there was a recent order of 20). We have tested them on the Sukhoi SU-26M and Yak-52 with great results.

    Subject: M-14P engine Heating
    From: "Roger Kemp M.D." <viperdoc@mindspring.com>
    >From the translated IAK-52 Flight Manual P. 24 3.4.3. Engine Heating 3.4.3.1 The engine is heated at 41-44% engine speed until the oil temperature at engine intake begins to increase. When the oil temperature begins to increase, the speed is accelerated up to 41-48% ( in winter time up to 51%) and maintaining this value of engine speed, the engine is heated until the cylinders heads temperature is 120 deg.C minimum and the oil temperature at the engine intake is 40 deg C minimum. In wintertime, to hasten the engine heating, the cowl flaps and the oil radiator choke must be closed. 3.4.3.2 The engine is considered heated when the cylinders heads temperature is 120 deg C minimum and the oil temperature at engine intake is 40 deg C minimum. So the oil temp is measured at the intake according to the manual. Doc Sent from my iPad

    Subject: Re: Cold weather oil woes
    I'm working on putting a Wolf Filter on as we speak, in my 55M. The temp sensor is downstream of the oil tank and upstream of the "filter" (Russian for the large screen on the firewall) and way upstream of the oil pump.

    Thanks Roger for the clarification..

Engine Heating 3.4.3.1- The engine is heated at 41-44% engine speed until the oil temper ature at engine intake begins to increase. When the oil temperature begins to increase, the speed is accelerated up to 41-48% ( in winter time up to 5 1%) and maintaining this value of engine speed, the engine is heated until the cylinders heads temperature is 120 deg.C minimum and the oil temperatur e at the engine intake is 40 deg C minimum. In wintertime, to hasten the engine heating, the cowl flaps and the oil rad iator choke must be closed. 3.4.3.2 The engine is considered heated when the cylinders heads temperatur e is 120 deg C minimum and the oil temperature at engine intake is 40 deg C minimum. So the oil temp is measured at the intake according to the manual. Doc Sent from my iPad le, List Admin. =0A=0A=0A
