Rebel engines

[klehman]

Hi

Saw a presentation from Canpower of Kingston Ontario on their new design
120+ hp engine. Might be worth a look for a wheeled Rebel. cdn$17,000.
190lb + exhaust. Preferred fuel is premium mogas. 300 hours on the
prototype and it has flown. Supposed to go into production this year.
Lighter and more power than an EA81. Better fuel consumption and way
more modern than a Lycoming, but of course its reliability is not proven
yet.

Hi Ken

What do you mean? 'way more modern that a Lycoming'? How could that be? :)

Hi Steve !

If that person was out in Musgrave Harbour, I went down there
in early 1996, I think ..., with a wizard from Crossflow Engineering.
We did a bit of testing at Gander, and he tweaked the engine computer -
ran like a dream after 2 days, so we sent him home.

I did some test flying & minor adjusting, and then checked him
out on the Rebel - he'd only ever flown a Cherokee before ...
By the end of the week, he was doing great - so I came home.

He has been flying that 180 hp. Subaru Rebel on Murphy 1800 amphibs
ever since - many hundreds of happy hours, out 'terrifying the trout'
on many a bog .... :-) Burning 6 gallons/hour of mogas ....

So it all worked out just fine !

Just my 2 cents worth.
When I was still living on the Rock (Newfoundland) in the mid 90's, I
remember a person of interest that had built a Rebel and had installed a
Subaru conversion. I understand that he was into to engine way beyond
(thousands) what a new Lycoming would have cost at the time. When I left,
he still couldn't get it to run right. The wheel has been around for some
time, why try and re-invent it.
