Good information and valuable to me Gary. I thought there may be a reasons since I saw so many wooden props on Jabiru’s. I found the website and it seems you have your choice of carbon fiber or wood. Apparently Prince picks the pitch for you and the diameter.
Thanks, Dee LeBlanc

Dee,early on the Jabiru had some harmonic issues that caused flywheel s to loosen. They increased from 1/4 bolts to 5/16 and also added dowel pins at the flywheel attach point. They determined using a wood or wood core prop solved the problem. Prince makes a wood core carbon fiber prop for the Jabiru 2200. I have a Sensenich wood on mine and a Pronce for a spare.

I've read a lot about the cooling problems with that engine but it's always been sensitive to the engine cowls around it. As an exposed pusher it cools fine. The only problem I ever had was when I installed a BRS (ballistic parachute). I installed the VLS and it disrupted the flow of air to the Cylinder Heads. I removed it and installed the canister BRS and the problem was solved. The folks at BRS were great to work with on that project. I prefer the Kolb over the 912 because it's direct drive off the crank just like a Cessna. I like looking at my TAC and seeing 2600 RPM.Scott HuddonN424ALSent from my iPhone | Quote: | | On Jul 1, 2015, at 1:51 PM, Dee One <leblancds(at)cox.net (leblancds(at)cox.net)> wrote:--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Dee One" <leblancds(at)cox.net (leblancds(at)cox.net)>I am considering purchasing a Mark 3 Xtra with a Jabiru 2200 engine.

Please let me know if you have any experience, positive or negative, regarding a Jabiru engine, especially regarding any cooling issues.Thanks,DeeRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=444274#444274 |
