    I'm late to this party, and new to the experimental game... Buckchop are you saying any rotax shop (non-aviation shop) would/could overhaul the engine for flight??

    So I just pulled it apart again to make sure all the pieces are there.   Anyone have any insight?

    Hi Jim,
    If I did a direct replacement, what would you want for the one in your hangar?

    Video shows mostly...its both lateral and vertical.  Took it all apart, doesnt seem like anything is missing or broken...maybe I'm missing  awash or something...It seems like the nut on top (under the cap) should be tighter, but its as tight as it'll go.

    That should work!
    Obviously no cracks and it’s in good shape?  

    Where would it be shipping from?

    Tailwheel Leaf Spring for Model 1-4
    Hi all,
    I'm curious if anyone has upgraded to the T3 and has a leaf spring they want to get rid of for a model 2?  The catalog lists Part #13022-SP-35 for the 3-leaf spring for models 1 through 4.  Not sure if Kitfox is fulfilling orders and shipping as they are closed for the virus mayhem.  Anyone want to get rid of theirs?

    Hey guys!  I've already posted looking for a few things that need some attention...mainly the ignition modules and associated wires.  I bought it sight unseen, and when taking the cowl and glare shield off, it was a MESS.  Trying to make sense of all the capacitors and stuff...taking out what I don't need...but yes, I don't really know what I'm doing entirely.

    Searching for Ducati Ignition Module - Rotax 912UL
    Hey all...
    Been trying to figure out the issue and one of the internal cables on the ignition module fell out with no force at all.  May be my issue!!  Anyone have a Ducati Ignition module (or a pair) that are in good condition?  Trying to get this thing flying...bought it sight unseen, not sure what came over me...
    Thanks for any help or leads!!

    Hey guys,
    So I was just down sorting through the ignition cables and one of the wires broke off with no force at all, from inside one of the ignition modules.  It doesn't seem I can open this thing up...so a new module needs to be sourced.  I will still be changing out all the connectors and wires in the meantime.  Anyone got any idea on where I can find a Ducati ignition module that's used/QC'ed?  These look to be $900 each new!  Yikes.
    Thanks for any/all help

    912UL ignitions/mags
    Hi all,
    I'm new here and new to kitfox/rotax ownership.  Been going through the model 2 I bought (with 912UL) and I've been having issues with one ignition dropping off at higher RPM.  Traced wires and replaced what looked damaged but to be honest its a messy cluster of crap that was done.  Just curious if there is anything I should be looking at before I start trying to locate new ignition modules...?

    Hi all,
    Just purchased a well-used Kitfox 2 with 912UL...bought it sight-unseen and starting to wonder if I made a mistake as I'm going through it now and trying to make sense of it.  Apologies in advance for the plethora or dumb questions to soon follow in future posts!!
