Default Single drive dual PMag

For anyone that may be interested.

I have had a little email correspondence with Brad at Emagair this past week in regard to the single drive Pmag for 4 cylinder engines we have all heard about for so long. Here is his response when I asked him how much longer.

Hi Graham:

The dual E-MAG will follow the release of the six cylinder version we intend to show at Oshkosh (less than a month). So ?maybe? around year end for the dual E-MAG.

I must say he returned my email almost straight away and was very responsive and helpful to this question and all the others I put to him even though I have never spent a cent on his product...YET!

Default El Lasar

I have the Lasar system with tow slick electronic mags I was told if the Lasar fails the mags check in and do the job like ordinary mags. I was also told in 4 years I will be replacing the Lasar system and as I haven't done the first flight as yet this still has to be proven.
Any input on the Lasar system from anyone that has or still is running it on there RV.

The EFII/Protek product looks absolutely first rate in particular the billet mounting brackets and the wiring connectors.

However I'm having a hard time getting any pireps.

Any one here use their product care to chime in?

I've decided to modify a regular mag to replace the current dual mag and just use one ei, at least for now. Makes the installation much easier without worrying about backup power etc.

I've asked him the same question the last couple of Osh's and that is the same answer I got both times.

I would buy one in a heartbeat, but I fear it will be a while yet...

Mike -

Thanks! You'll have to forgive me for not actually owning an RV...but I am quite fond of them!

This forum community has been extremely helpful along my experimental journey. Thanks for being so awesome!

Louis
