Hello guys,
I finally figured out how to post pictures, wow!
So I would like to share some intense moments of “Aircraft Building Experience”.
Last weekend I travelled down to DACHSEL FLUGMOTOREN in Baierbrunn (Munich, Germany), to witness the test-running of my brand-spanking-new ECI-Titan OX-320 with fuel injection and dual electronic ignition.
See the pictures below:
The engine being installed on the test-stand, that is over 60 years old. This test stand was used during WW2 for testing the engines of the German Luftwaffe!
"Herr Wenzel", the Test-stand-operator, at the controls! (See the engine in the back, behind the window, with the "cowl" installed)
They use a special test-propeller not a dynamometer, the screen between the propeller and the engine is for safety and directing the air better. Notice the engine stand, it can handle engines of over 900 bhp!
Look at the temps: hardly any difference, great!
Regards, Tonny.
