Has anyone put together propeller Deicing and
Air-conditioning on a Lancair legacy? I am looking for supplier for
slip-ring that can work with Air Flows air-conditioning system.
Or do you know what modifications need to be made to make
this combination work.
I am using a IO-550 with a MT-propeller.
Thank you Russell
Yes, I did it on my TSIO 550 IV-P. I designed and machined the
slip ring mounting bracket, modified the slip ring from MT and designed and
made the brush block mounting brackets. Very expensive, but my business is
machining parts for Boeing. The slip ring mounts to the prop
attaching shaft and the brush block is on the bottom side of the crank
centerline. The A/C stuff mounts normally. I'm using a MT
4-blade.
