    Ok thanks for the info.  Please post up here or over in the Yamaha Aircraft Conversions Facebook Group when you have a redrive built for a Yamaha (Apex, RX-1, Phazer, Nytro/Vector/Sidewinder)

    I know that there is demand for higher ratio options (below 2.62:1) for the short prop / high prop RPM builders.

    It looks like your experience with belt drives would make the conversion for a Yamaha a pretty easy endeavor and your prices are very reasonable.  It really comes down to proof of theory, which you are confident in, but for buyers 95% of them would want to SEE it proven.

    Oh, Totally agree with you.  I install a redrive on the motors that I can buy, but I can’t buy it in my country in the pit.  Can someone help buy this motor in the USA?  Or someone wants to install a gearbox on his motor on mutually beneficial conditions?

    Thanks, yes I was mostly wondering if you have fitted a belt drive on a Yamaha, tested it, and flown it for a period of time.

    Or are you proposing a new prototype build to be tested by the buyer? 

    The reduction drive has been tested on many motors and the Yamaha is no different from them, if you do not take into account the special adapter plate.  The only special motor is the BMW R1100 - R1200, which has a very uneven torque.
