 |

Hi
I am installing a ivo IFA on my 912 and was wondering what size of breaker I
should be installing in the loop. What works for others?
Thanks

It should come with one in the wire harness. It did on mine.

Thanks. I bought my prop and wiring used and the wiring that I received was some yucky extension cord material. I threw all the wiring away and there wasn't a circuit breaker in the wiring I received. I have it currently hooked up to a 3 amp breaker which trips quite easily when I get to the end of the stroke.
How many amps is the breaker that came with your wiring harness?
I thought I read 10 amps somewhere but I can't find the article to confirm.
thanks

Not sure of my amps as my Kitfox is not close to home at the moment C but would venture a guess that it is 10 amps ot higher. Give IVO a call. they could clear it all up. Mine has never triped the breaker. When it hits dead end you can see it on your altenator gauge will spike and its time to let go of the switch.

Did you end up with an ungodly amount of extra wire that you coil up and stuff behind the pannel? IVO sends out a very long harness and cautions you not to cut it as it limits the current that gets to the motor. If you run shorter wires with less resistance, you run the risk of frying the motors, which used to be 37 bucks but are now 100 bucks. I have been through 6 of them until I figured out what the problem was (using high pitch blades as recommended by my brother) that requires the poor little motor to work too hard to flatten them out enough for take off RPM.
