First, note the gas tank / seat. We were considering using these to extend our range at times. Two of these in a trike in place of the seats, would be 2x 10 gallons. Or, 375 more miles of range !!! (If your butt and bladder could handle that!)
So, I have a "6 watt" in dash radio. I asked the dealer what wattage...nsponder is similar. So is the Enigma (EFIS), and strobes. My new landing light is listed as 21 watts....
It had rained hard last night and my trike was soaked. I learned my lesson and will put a cover over it next time. The rain messed up my radio, and Paul’s wasn’t working either. We took off with me in the lead and Paul right behind me.
Found this on a post flight inspection after sending off the Trike Globetrotters. Apparently the 1/8" aluminum had enough vibration where mounted that it fatigued the metal and it cracked straight through. Always to a post flight, You never know what you might find.
