Does this mean you’re not
going to be finished before Tracy finishes his 8? I’m sorry to see you getting
out of it, as you were certainly one of the more interesting characters on this
list. If I was closer I’d certainly stop by to look through your stuff.
One
of these days I’m still gonna surprise you with a visit.
Good Luck Rusty.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Selling all
my rotary stuff
Greetings,
I’ve decided to sell all
the rotary stuff that I have. Actually, I may sell the RV-3 kit and just
close out the hangar. I’ve just been way more interested in R/C stuff
recently, and it might even become a bit of a side business.
I haven’t really
inventoried everything, but the main items of interest here will be:
RD1C gear drive- $2500
EC2 & EM2- $1250 for
both
Autoflight gear drive-
$1750 (2.47:1 ratio, limited to 160HP and 6000 rpm, used by Rotamax now)
Complete, single rotor on
a test stand trailer- $1250 (no gear drive or engine computer unless you buy
them also)
Complete balance single
rotor “rotating assembly”- $750
I have a few hundred
pounds of 13B housings, and other misc parts that I’ll probably sell for about
$1/lb, or maybe just a good lunch :-) This stuff can’t be shipped, so
you’ll have to stop by 2R4 airport on your way to or from the roundup to get
it. I’d hate to throw it all in the dumpster, but I will if
necessary. If you’re vehicle has a trailer hitch, I can send you off with
a great aircraft hauling trailer. It’s 18’x8’, with a single axle to give
a soft ride for large light weight items like aircraft parts. It’s like
new, maybe $1000.
I’ll probably Ebay off
some misc props, throttle bodies, etc, but I don’t have a listing of those
right now.
I’d probably sell the new
RV-3B kit (tail complete, quickbuild wings, fuse kit, finishing kit) for the
current Van’s kit cost, so you’d save the outrageous shipping charge, and 8
month wait for QB wings. The kit would fit nicely on that trailer…
:-)
If you have any questions
about these, send me an email at rusty@radrotary.com
Thanks,
Rusty
