[rebel-builders] Engine Choices
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 11:30 am
I was just reading the Hatz Bantam write-up in Sport Aviation
and he selected the Jabiru 3300 for his plane and lists his reasons
on his web page at:
http://www.hatzbantam.com/engine%20options.htm
Weight, HP, and useful load are the primary reasons for the Jabiru.
A friend of mine has one and so far has 117 hours of flawless
Operation. He is very happy with it.

Rebel Builders
One of the many reasons I chose to build the Rebel was to certify it as a
"Experimental Amateur Built Aircraft" yet build it light enough that I could
fly it under the LSA pilot rules if I have to. The choice of engines is of
course a major factor in that goal. I have looked at the obvious choices.
The 116 HP 0235 Lycoming, the 100 HP Continental 0-200 and the 100 HP Rotax
ULS.
I would like to hear comments from Rebel builders who are, or at one time
had considered installing a Rotec or a Jabiru 3300 in their Rebel.
