EXCELLENT video ‘interview’ format. The audience doesn’t need to listen to questions being asked or the host post-paraphrasing what the subject says. Bravo MojoGrip for producing such a clear, succinct, Enjoyable video, with no none of the annoying host interruptions that add no value.
Ray Lawrence is an excellent representative for UL Power. His being part of the North American team and support for sales & installation, is one good reason to choose ULP.
They claim that they will run on both LL avgas and UL premium. From the little info I've found of people who have these engines is that you are better off using unleaded gas, As leaded avgas builds up deposits on valves and lowers the overhaul time.
Nice looking engine but much less complex than an automobile engine with at least four times the cost. Just doesn't add up. Understand your are not mass producing like an auto manufacturer but what justifies the cost at nearly 50 grand? The answer is because you can and still be less expensive than a traditional LA engine manufacturer. Get this beauty down in the mid to low 30s and you will sell tons of them.
40 thousand euros. People in aviation aren't good at math it seems. Maybe some sort of night course? :) We desperately need a small turbofan engine. It would be a revolution.
UL, the US is a big market but why do you have such incompetent sales reps? Your engines are the best in what you find in todays market but this guys knows as much about engines like the guy at Best Buy...
Why is it in WWII we could build and fly planes for the price of a used car. Now the motors alone are a decent down payment on a house. No wonder aviation is dying. Make an affordable engine
@@kvnkaveman that's comparing apples to oranges. Today's homes cost $300k and an F-15 cost 90 million, so the jet cost 300 times more than a home today, where as the mustang only cost about 15 times more than a home
@@hud86 The point is aviation is expensive now and it was expensive then. Those surplus planes you speak of were delivered in boxes. It cost a lot of money to put them back together not to mention keeping them maintained and flying. Hence that is why such few still exist today. You can buy Cessna's and Pipers today that are in the price range of a used car, the maintenance such as an engine overhaul is still going to be expensive just as it was then. Hobby flying wasn't cheap then and it isn't cheap now, never has been.

I am interested in the Velocity V-Twin performance with these engines.
Nice power plant.
Great review, Mike.
What's your opinion of this vs the lightweight Turbine engine you reviewed recently?
Pondering a future home for this perhaps in a certain SlingTSI? 🤔 🧐
A 250hp + versión would be cooler specially for a dr killer XD
A Velocity just went down in KTIX. Haven’t heard the reason, or how well pilot was trained in that aircraft.
Stall/spin after an attempted landing go-around.
have a nice day. It says 250000-500000 usd for lancair 4-p planes. is this true.?
please price. thanks
Does it run on premium unleaded pump gas?

can i put this engine on a saberwing?
Possibly but you may have a challenge with the weight
@@mojogrip true, thanks!
Hi sir. How much price this engine?

nice.
Are they dual FADEC? Or is there a redundancy?
It's up to you. If you run duel FADEC or single.
Price please
will this fit on a RV6?
He has one on his RV4 and it is a beast!
@@scottmiller4711 My first though when I saw this engine was the RV8 .

Nice engine but he didn’t state what kind of range can you expect at cruising speeds
yeah he did @2m20s
"13.2 GPH at 34 inches manifold pressure for cruise"
That depends on how much fuel you carry in your tanks...he did state the GPH easy enough to calculate.

A new house in 1944 cost 3450.00, A P-51 Mustang cost 50,000.00. so please tell me again how cheap aviation was in WWII compared to today.

I want one.
An Alison RR will burn just 15 litres an hour more and give you 400hp plus.
