Rotax has clearly decided EFI is the way to go. But have you seen the complexity of their implementation on the 912iS? Running an EFI like Megasquirt or SDS in an aircraft can and has been done, but it introduces a lot of new failure modes that you need to understand and make a conscious choice

I've been a car hobbyist for years, installing and modifying my own fuel injected turbocharger system and such. One of my friends in the hobby who has done interesting things with engines and so on, got involved with Mega-Squirt years ago when it first was created. Basically it's a universal

I'd consider a megasquirt on my Lotus 7-like car project, in fact I'm leaning toward that setup, but I understand carbs and will be using a carb on my airplane. Also a magneto and no engine -driven electrical charging system. Chris On 1/28/2015 1:13 PM, Chris Prata via KRnet wrote: > I've

Well they also rebuild thier motors after every race, so the point? Not trying to be smart, but it's not a valid compare. Even production planes and new AC motors have gone the EFI route. This is not new tech anymore, with other systems coming online it will be outdated in 10-20 yrs and people
