Badland Part 103 Pilots and Builders Forum

Will do, I've still got a lot of research to get done and a list to check off. As far as all the red tape is concerned it can't be any worse than filing taxes..... HA

Im not one to make a lot of mods to my setup once I get it up and going. I own my own powersports repair facility and rebuild engines on a weekly basis. BRP/ Rotax master tech I wouldn't have any problem with any repairs / maintenance on any engine at all I have worked on a large variety of powerspo...

After much decision and kicking this whole thing around by the time I decide to pull the trigger on the F5 it will probably go up another 10 k it has already went up 5k since I joined and add that to the wait time for a kit, and no one within a 3 hour drive of me is willing to give instruction on th...

If im going to make the jump into ultralights the cost of the f5 doesn't scare me and extra cost and longer life on an engine sounds like a win on my end too. Im all about safety when my butt is on the line to...
