BME 50 IN GP ULTIMATE?

storklappe · 09-15-2006, 03:31 PM

Has anyone seen a BME 50 in a Great Planes Ultimate? My concern is that the carb may have to stick out of the side of the cowl. If you have one or seen one did the carb stick out?

Thanks!

I've got a DA 50 in mine, and there's probably a good 4-5 inches of free space on either side of the engine. So I think you'd probably be fine.

Got my GP Ultimate / BME 50 combo from Chief Aircraft.
Love the plane and the engine and I don't think it sticks out too much, just had to trim around the carb needles a bit as the cowl would rub there if I didn't.

Hey, it'll be easy to access your needles if you need to change the mixture.
