Friends,
it’s me again. This time I discover problems with massive radio disturbance. I changed to a Silent Hectic voltage regulator, made a 45 minute flight and everything was fine. On the next start up a week later the current was only 11,7 volts (engine started but Rotax Flydat remained dark). The reason was the regulator which was not working/charging the battery, thus radio on the last 45 minute flight worked (perfect) on battery power only. Original Ducati/Rotax regulator reinstalled and it was charging.
BUT: the radio was disturbed so badly (I also heard all sorts of electrical consumers like trim, transponder etc. with the waste gate controller motor being the worst). I also had to open the squelch the whole flight to understand ATC.
Since I bought my Europa used, I cannot completely exclude a fundamental fault in the electric system (earth?).
Any ideas much appreciated.
Regards
Roland
