Mockup Engines For Sale

Attention aircraft builders!!  We have a new product offering that can save you lots of time, sweat, and money!

We now have exact replica mockups of parallel valve O/IO-360 engines for sale.  They're made of molded plastic resin, so they weigh just 25 pounds and the price is $900.  The advantage to you the aircraft builder is that you can build your airbox and baffling; position your wiring, fuel lines, and other components; and make other modifications before spending thousands of dollars on your real engine.  Also, it's far easier to manipulate a 25-pound plastic mockup engine than a real one which can weigh upwards of three hundred pounds.

In addition, because you're working with a mockup engine rather than the real thing, you're not running the risk of inadvertently damaging your engine and running up repair bills before your aircraft is even finished, which can be frustrating as well as costly.

If our replica engine can help you finish your aircraft, give us a call and order yours today!  Further details are on this page.  If you have any questions, please contact Alan Jesmer for more information.

Service Publications Updates

On the Service Publications page, we have updated the Index of Manuals, Bulletins, and Service Information Letters to the latest revision.  You can check in the Index to make sure you're up-to-date with the latest publications for your Fuel Injection system.  You can read it online; or, if you prefer, call us and order a hard copy of the Index at no charge, P/N 15-895.

Another change (not as recent, but still worth noting) to the Service Publications page is that last year, we placed two of our RSA manuals online:  15-810, Troubleshooting Techniques; and 15-812, the Training Manual.  You can read them online, under "Manuals" on the Service Publications page.  If you prefer to order hard copies, they are still available for purchase; just give us a call.

If you haven't visited the Service Publications page in a while, you'll notice that the list of documents now includes the publication dates.  This was in direct response to feedback from one of our website users.  Thank you for the suggestion!

If you have suggestions, comments, or feedback about the Service Publications page, or about anything on the website, please let us know.

If you use any of our fuel control products, please take a few moments to complete our online Product Satisfaction Survey.  Whether you're a kit plane builder, a pilot, a mechanic, a flight school instructor, or whatever, we'd like to hear about your experience with our products.

The survey takes just a few minutes to complete.  After you finish, you'll be directed back to our website's main page.  To take the survey, click on this link.  Thank you in advance for your time and input! 

 

Eagle EMS: Installation Manual Now Online

The Eagle EMS installation manual is now available for download!  To get the manual, go to the "EAGLE EMS"  page, scroll down to the "Installation Manual" bullet point, and click on the link.  It will take you to a page with instructions for downloading the manual.

Also new on the Eagle EMS page is a set of Frequently Asked Questions, written to address technical and installation questions in-depth.  Our first Eagle Q&A page, written to address more general questions about the system, is still online.  If you have any questions (whether general or specific) about the system, please check these two pages first.  If you still have questions after reading the pages, please e-mail your questions to Alan Jesmer and we will do our best to either incorporate them into the question pages and/or get back to you with answers.  As always, thank you for asking!

The "Silver Hawk EX" Fuel Injection System

This just in:  Flyin' Lo strikes gold at Reno!  The Flyin' Lo Racing Team won first place in the Biplane Gold Race at the 2007 Reno Air Races, flying their Pitts LR-1 Miss Gianna with the "SILVER HAWK EX" installed.  Pictures and details are on this page.  Additional information about the team, and pictures from the 2006 Reno Air Races, are on this page.

New pictures!!  New pictures!!  We have two new pictures in the "SILVER HAWK EX" online photo gallery.  The gallery is a collection of pictures contributed by builders who are incorporating the Silver Hawk into their aircraft.  The latest additions are from Sebastian Trost, who has shared two pictures of his now-completed Van's RV-7A in flight, with the Silver Hawk EX installed.

If you'd like to share pictures of your own Silver Hawk installation on our website, please contact Alan Jesmer.  One thing we'd be particularly interested in is pictures of the Silver Hawk with the alternate rotation mixture configuration.  Also, if you already have pictures in the gallery and you'd like to share updated pictures of your installation (for instance, if your plane is now finished), send the new pictures to Alan and we'll post them online with your other pictures. 

In other news, there are two new kits available for the Silver Hawk:  the EX390-1, for Lycoming IO-390 angle valve engines with 200 HP; and the EX540-3, the first Silver Hawk kit for 300 HP engines.  You can read all about the Silver Hawk kits, including the new ones, by clicking the "Kits & Applications" link on the Silver Hawk EX page.

An older piece of news, but still a big one for the "SILVER HAWK EX", is Lycoming's new line of non-certified kit engines.  And why is that such big news?  It's big news because the "SILVER HAWK EX" is fully compatible with Lycoming's certified engines on experimental aircraft.  Therefore, it is also the perfect fuel control for Lycoming's new "EX" engines.  These engines, and the Silver Hawk kits suitable for them, are listed on the Silver Hawk EX page.  Click on the link that reads "Lycoming Non-Certified Kit Engines Cross-Reference."

The "SILVER HAWK EX" is Precision Airmotive's premier fuel control system for experimental aircraft, and we are proud to support the experimental market by making this fuel control available and prominently featuring it among our product offerings.  Read all about it here, and feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
