I really appreciate your videos. All the hard work has paid off in a successful business, loving family, and friends across the country. Congrats. I should be turning the blades on my Viking 130 in August, if all goes right.

The community of Viking engine owners are so lucky to have you and Allyssa. I wonder if they appreciate just how unusual/unprecedented in the aviation community you two are. An engine supplier doing first flights for customers has probably never happened in the history of aviation. I'm not a Viking owner so my vote doesn't count but - I honestly, I wish you wouldn't do first flights. I feel you are too important to the experimental aircraft community as a whole to risk losing you in this manner.

Thank you, it is more risky test flying our new engines than something like this. We go through the aircraft carefully and the engine and get it setup to keep another customer safer than they may have been otherwise. I'm more concerned these days going on the road and driving a car lol.

Looking forward to the day you guys fly up to Puyallup WA for my first flight! Might be Alaska Airlines…😂

But wait, there is no shelf above the switches! :)

@eggenfellner 20 күн бұрын

No, we barely have switches. 🤪 however, you have a great panel setup and ideally those guards are great to have - especially if you have passengers or aren’t hyper vigilant that could “accidentally” bop it down.

Love this Air plane and that engine!!

@dannymattice20 Ай бұрын

Very nice. What does all of this weigh? It would be interesting to to see if this would work on my Experimental Piper tail wheel Colt with an O320 in it currently

@eggenfellner 17 күн бұрын

It is less than an O320 and the Titan 180 by a little bit and slightly more power.

Just bought a Chevy Trax Activ yesterday. Can confirm, for such a tiny engine, it scoots. Can't wait for HP Tuners to release a tune for it.

@diecastgoblin 3 күн бұрын

Yeah we have a 24 activ with 9k miles on it now and its definitely surprising how quick that tiny engine is. I drive over 2 mountains everyday for work and the higher torque will pull it up over like it's nothing where the 19 Trax we have wants to be in 3rd gear screaming to get up it. The 24 trax also makes some pretty nice turbo noises at lower speeds when you can hear it. Overall im super happy with it. You in the r/chevytrax group ?

I’d watched a couple other videos from you, specifically on the Rans S21 with a 150hp NA engine. One of my questions was whether you offered the 195T with a constant speed prop. This video answered it, thank you.

@AeroworksProductions Ай бұрын

Excellent video detailing the final steps of a 195T installation in a Zenith Super Duty. Definitely cleared up a few questions.

@eggenfellner Ай бұрын

These are pretty standard for that setup, we even had 31's on ours. It certainly is a big drag setup.

@jondavies7042 Ай бұрын

Who configured the ECU,and is it the original ECU with firmware mods, or completely original programming?

@eggenfellner Ай бұрын

It is our proprietary ECU that is used. They are done on a dyno, programmed and fine tuned in air etc.

I have a UL Power 350si CH750 in my hanger for an inspection and I cant get parts for it to do the simple oil change or swap the spark plugs. Also the tool needed to torque the heads is backordered. What a joke! I wish it was the viking 3 cyl turbo!

@eggenfellner Ай бұрын

Yikes! You have to torque the heads as well?

@Maingear81 Ай бұрын

@@eggenfellner Torque every 15, 100, and 200 HRS. Only source I can find for UL Power parts is Belgium, No USA parts. Baffles are all cracked up (200 Hr Engine)... it goes on and on.... I took this job way to cheap, no idea the man hours it would take. Loosing money on this inspection.

"If it was CHEAPER, everybody would be doing it"...fixed your thumbnail for ya... P.S. Noticed an ad for an ultralight engine the other day...$30k for a tiny Rotax, same one I got in a 15 year old 4 wheeler... Congratulations on destroying another hobby with greed....

@eggenfellner 2 ай бұрын

We are about 1/5 and 1/2 the price of everything out there, so the greed you speak of is not aimed in the right direction. Talk to Rotax, Lycoming and Continental about that. We have everything as affordable as possible while maintaining a business.

surprised your not using your bungee, instead of the pucks.

@eggenfellner 2 ай бұрын

We would, but easier to just leave it for now, we prefer the steel bungee and the way to tension our steel bungee is much easier versus the "prying"

So is this considered a "CH 701TX" or "CH 701XT" (Turbo Extreme or Extreme Turbo) I mean it's really up to you. I just love the whole Idea.

obviously there's a guy who rubbed Jan the wrong way . I wouldn't worry about these dick weeds Jan , what your doing for the home aviator is fantastic . your basically taking taking the best engines and making them affordable and more reliable than the old relics that are out there . keep on going with what your doing

@willb1981 2 ай бұрын

just a quick question have you looked at making a diesel car engine into aero engine at all.

@AnonyMous-jf4lc 2 ай бұрын

The “tester” blaming you for not testing doesn’t have a clue on how to properly test anything using established methods and best practices. They also don’t understand a defined operating range that allows for a buffer zone for safety and longevity.

@rickmbp 2 ай бұрын

Jan, love you guys and what you’re doing. Been following your KZbin channel for many years. I promise you, if I come into significant money before I’m too old (and there’s actually a chance I might) I’m going to be trying to twist your arm to help me get into a Zenith 750SD with an amazing power plant and a constant speed prop.

Ok, obviously some drama behind this video. Am I the only one that missed the opening salvo, as I have no idea who said or did what to offend. I’m not sure these open ended, leave you guessing kind of videos, solve much of anything.

@eggenfellner 2 ай бұрын

Just showing the testing the we do in a basic format that talks about some of what we do. Bringing back our Viking Talks videos (next is fuel) video brought about by questions.

@jimsworthow531 2 ай бұрын

I was wondering that as well. It just seems like a lot of talk; i did not see anything being tested; just an engine on a harbor freight engine stand; I have the same one, they are around $70. Maybe next time he will show an engine running in a dyno room hooked up to gauges.

@eggenfellner 2 ай бұрын

We have a bunch of videos showing this and posts over the years. Just an explanation of the processes done. Our Viking Talks videos were all just meant to be explanations and just that "talks" on our fuel one, we will bring out a few components because it is easy.

I had learnt something about compression testers. On my 130, I got an even 120 PSI across the board (from a cheap HF compression tester) A couple months later, I had found my “better quality” one in the garage. Re-tested my compressions, on only a slightly warmed engine 175-180 Psi across the board. Don’t cheap out on compression testers, like I did 😀

@eggenfellner 2 ай бұрын

Correct, and doing it on a warm engine is important.
