"Flywheel Alternators" are more aptly described as Dynamo Charging systems.? They have fixed magnets that fly past a fixed Stator (coil or coils) to produce AC current and either a single or 3 phase A/C Output that is then rectified into DC.? A single phase unit either works or not as there ar

After re-reading my post, let me amend it a bit. Start on page 30 at "Flywheel Alternators" and read through page 32. Mine is a 20A, but you could even have a 15A. You could also have a 30A, I suppose. Mine charges at 14.3-14.4V anytime the engine is much above idle, and has plenty of curren

Anybody know if the flywheel alternators that are in the Great Plains engines wear out with time? It seems my voltmeter needle is riding around 11 volts instead of 12 with the engine at full RPM. It might be my imagination. If they DO wear out with time, what needs to be replaced? What wears?

I spoke to Ed Sterba about that a few years ago and he told me that low drag planes like the KR and the Midget Mustang can go faster than the theoretical pitch will allow. I am not a prop expert, but if I had to take a wild guess as to a theory which may or may not be correct I would look at this.

I have been using the Ifly GPS app on my tablet and phone for over a year and love it. I recently got a new project (Murphy Rebel) that came with an Ifly 720. I powered it up over the weekend and noticed that it took probably a minute or so to boot up and operation seems to not be very fast on it
