      What Is Islam?
      Islam is not just another religion.
      It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
      Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
      It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
      It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
      The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
      { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4)
      Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
      Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him

    Put a few spacers (washers) under the coils. The Air Gap will help wonders. And even adding a layer of insulation on the engine side of your heat shield will help. And help keep the heat transfer to a minimum ☺️ And a composite shield would help. Make it larger. Since weight would be less of a consideration. And an idler pulley on the belt,.. blah blah blah ✌️

    It’s great you’re doing your test and repairs. Do you do destination? Do you get out with your helicopter and go places like to paragliders do make a trip to McDonald get out and it’s four places to keep your viewers happy.

    Best DIY as I seen! But! If you learn to fly on your own, then the helicopter will serve you for the rest of your life. ;-) ))

    If the heat shield is only for wires protection why not trying wire insulators which they coat the wires thoroughly, I recommend Wirefy Heat Shrink Tubing as the most reliable and highest-quality solution.

    So Mitch I just found your chanel today, I'm excited.. would love a background video, like when/where did you get your rotary wing experience? Why did you get out of them into paramotors ? Do you also have multi engine ifr ratings for fixed-wing? (I'm guessing you are maybe navy/airforce trained).

    Nice works & videos both on your helicopter and Paramotor - I am interesting to order a complete mosquito air kit and assemble it by myself.
    - Could you please tell me:
    - How many hours you have used to assemble this helicopter?
    - Price for complete kit?
    - Web site for the ordering the kit?
    Thanks

    Why do you have your spark plug wires in the exhaust path? Put longer wires on there and get them out of the hot gases...

    • @MitchG
      @MitchG  3 года назад +1

      That was the point of the heat shield that I made. To shield the coils from the engine heat. I think the spark plug wires deal with the heat just fine the way they are.

    Positive side of hot air on those carbs.....no icing.
    A 2 stroke wants to run on the rich side for piston cooling.....granted it robs a bit of power.....and a weak mix may sound better.....but running weaker is a risk in a 2 stroke.....especially in light load conditions.
    My Rotax 503 was near enough fully shrouded....what motor are you running....dont look like a rotax....a Hirth maybe???
    But the company that produced my microlight modified the shroud to blow hot air on the carbs.....to help re icing.
