Re: Kolm IL135 on its way!!!

Very nice Mike. Congrats

"I'm going to hold onto it for awhile." That's funny stuff. Make sure you get it off the kitchen table!!

Take care, Daren

Hey Daren, actually I think I'll make this piece of jewellery the new table centre piece for a while, haha!!

Re: Kolm IL135 on its way!!!:):)It's Here:):)

Hey Trevor, I may take you up on that. I don't know when but once I get the prop and linkages done up I will give you a shout.

It's a beast in many ways including weight!!

engine 12lbs 9.6oz
ignition/exhaust 7.8oz

Total 13lbs 1.4oz

Missing in this weigh-in are the 6 smaller prop hub bolts as those have to be bought to match prop hub thickness, linkages between carbs, add standoffs if needed and we may be at 13.5lbs. This engine is not intended to be light, it's a 4-stroke and will go in a warbird but it has the hp (12hp that is) and most important "torque" to pull itself and everything else in any direction.

Re: Kolm IL135 on its way!!!

Not a big deal in a warbird and the sound will be amazing!!

I'll wait with baited breath, Mike . Let me know what prop you need ... I have a Fiala 26x16 (for MOKI150) and I think a 28x14 and 30x12.
