Also looking forward to the next one. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us Mr Milholland. These are the experiments in ultralight aviation I'm most interested to see.

Great video. I think the B&S is an exciting option and will be watching the progress. I have an old VW engine and the Better Half plans, but this new option has my attention. How did you get here?

Oi amigo onde poso encontra eses brodutos polia e elice para comprar?

[@paulbest6679]

Does the modified Briggs have a battery charging system?

[@joshuamathis4179]

Great to see progress. I think a lot of people me included have wondered about the feasibility of using these smooth running V twins vs the good old half vw.

[@JM-cg3ps]

Very interesting! Looking forward to the next one!

[@JeffCurtisIflyHG]

If the plan for cooling is the airflow from the prop then machining off the blades/fins from the flywheel will save some weight and gain back some power as well. Given that the redrive and prop will be on the motor you might be able to lighten the flywheel considerably and still have enough momentum for correct running of the motor. I am disappointed Verner stopped the 3 cylinder production, it seemed like a good fit for the Legal Eagle.

[@tomcoryell]

The 3v is 42hp and is heavier than Scott Casler’s (Hummel) 47hp 1/2 VW.

[@douglasanderson1276]

The Verner was very expensive with price and shipping.

LEXL H-02 here. THANKS for the update, I almost called you to see how this project is going! Glad to see that you got the B&S Vanguard to Les. Can't wait to see it go!

[@waynegilchrist3535]

I was wondering if you could give me the specs of that prop you guys ordered to test? And do you know what the price was? I've went to they're website and there was a lot of information they wanted filled out for a quote. Thanks.

[@leonardmilholland6948]

Hi After the test is over as we might buy another size before we are through tesing. Leonard

[@garybucher6824]

I'm looking forward to seeing the results, I've been very interested in this setup.

[@gmscalzo]

Very interested to see how well this works. Looking forward to seeing the next part!

[@davidr9591]

K-66 here. Am VERY appreciative of your efforts and wish you gentlemen the best of luck. Love the ground adjustable prop idea. I'll start working on getting Briggs and Stratton to go to dual ignition haha. Curious about datum re·location / CG range. Thanks for the video 👍

[@leonardmilholland6948]

Hi The. C. G looks very close with the B and. S

[@douglasanderson1276]

Why do you want dual ignition?

[@tomcoryell]

The two Legal Eagle gurus in one place! I trust you guys to figure out the best weight loss plan for this Vanguard.

[@tomcoryell]

Just out of curiosity, has anyone heard from Joe Spencer of Putt Putt fame? Hope he’s okay.

[@leonardmilholland6948]

Hi Guys This is the first video of this test We are hoping this combo will work Less is putting 12hours on the engine before trying to fly so far it looks good. Leonard

[@Buntulla]

Awesome video! I’m a cfi and hope to build my self a LE one day

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Great stuff 👍

[@roybierman7745]

Does this Les Holman know Jim Holman from Nebraska

[@Kevin_747]

Kalifornia loses another good citizen. Win win for Texas.

[@007mwn]

Leonard and Les i have a drawing from Kevin Armstrong that shows how to remove about 9lbs from the flywheel. I will send it in a email

[@JuanJuan-gj6wc]

Hi, is the 35hp engine?

[@douglasanderson1276]

627cc from briggs 23 hp with mild mods 30hp?
