It has been a while since I have updated anything so I thought I would just drop a line or two just to catch you guys up. The production is going good and I believe that I have worked through most of the issues with my CNC machine finally. (crossing my fingers)
Ernie at
http://www.rotorflightdynamicsinc.com/ has one of these 120hp motors setting at his place and is putting it on a new two place Dominator for a customer. We have been talking about this for awhile and now it is actually happening.
A few months ago I shipped off an engine kit to Al Frasier which he will be putting on his Air Command just like mine so my gyro will soon have a twin.
I also shipped off a 130hp fuel injected motor to Brad Hawley in CA so that he can start figuring out how he wants to mount it to his little wing, I will ship him the redrive cage later.
Jim Ginn will be at my place very soon and we will be installing one of these 120 motors on his machine as well, Jim is getting excited.
When Jim leaves I will be boxing up Fiveboys motor and shipping it to him in Panama so that will be the first Yamaha that has left the US border and will be flying over Monkeys and Jaguars and stuff that will eat you.
Brooke in Florida will be looking under his Christmas tree for a 118 pound present soon after that to put in his empty looking Somaha.
I still have to perfect and build some steel mounts for the Dominators, the fixed wings and John Stahl's Pit bull so that I can put the engines in all those machines as well, then I will work on a belt drive system for several others who want to go that route.
I get many calls about people interested in the 80hp Yamaha motor so I need to finish and test that project as well.
Other than that not much going on,
Todd
