The 701 will gravity feed at typical pitch angles as long as the pitch is
level or down. Since the wing is behind the engine under some attitudes the
wing can be below the engine, since pitch rotates about the wing cg.. If one
looks at gravity feed during high pitch angles such as take off and steep
climbs gravity feed is marginal. I installed an electric pump (Facet) and
always use it on take offs and on any field where a go around might be
required. IMO install a backup pump and use it. I put mine on the lower
firewall and it has been problem free for 150+ hours.

Is anyone on this forum flying a 701 with a Jabiru 2200, preferably without slats,
and VG's on the wings and elevator. I'm about 30% complete, and am leaning
towards this configuration, but would like any airspeeds that you have been
experiencing such as stall speed, and approach. I don't want to hurt myself the
first time around the pattern.

I hope you get some good answers, I'm thinking about the same thing .
So far I haven't been able to get much info. I"ve tried jabiru usa
about the engine, but they won't
even answer my e mail much less give me the TBO and other info i've
asked for, makes me wonder how much service I would get if I bought
their engine.
Good luck.
