Hey George;
I have no argument with that, and my sympathy goes to them on their recent crash, but they could at least return an email or a call and tell me to go to hell.  Didn't even get that, and I may have been a potential client for an engine.  Not a good way to do Public Relations, and I being in business, can relate to that.

Greg,
To be fair, their up to their neck in work trying to get their own development sorted out, this last problem with the exhaust wasn't particularly helpful.
The problem is, from what I hear, that us experimental chaps take up a lot of time and they haven't got the time to put to such small sales. Things may be better down the track, when they have everything sorted.
 
I've even offered Mistral details of an exhaust that Bill Jepson and I have been working on and they didn't even respond to that, I"M SURE only because they haven't got the time
George (down under) 
If you knew what I have been going through getting a turbo manifold for a 20B built, you wouldn't even try.  I tried communicating with Mistral several times about one of their manifolds, there was no interest in helping me out.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Mistral/ Intake manifolds

Just thought I'd ask around. A few people purchased intake manifolds from Mistral and I'm trying to find out a few things about them.

First of all, what versions of the 13B did they fit? How much do they weigh? Originally, what were they selling them for.

 

As I understand it, they no longer sell them to joe-public, nor do the new unit's fit on the standard 13B? Are there builders out there who would prefer to buy a ready to install manifold for their projects?

 

Thanks guy's!

Jarrett Johnson
