I think it would be really great if you finished at least one project out of the multiple ones that you have still going on and never return to show a video of you finishing it
Funny 😅no hart ❤️from Rebild rescue for that remark, so you get one from me, I think no one of the plane and the boat ever will finish, then he will not have people to donate more money to him 😅😂😂
Agreed totally
You obviously don’t know how people who do project vehicles operate… you have to have at least two new pokers in the fire before you can complete one. If you complete a project without having a new one started what would you have to work on?
@@ambee514 i Agree with you, but but here we are talking about many projects, a boat a car and several aeroplane, and the one to Sam, and now a new one it doesn’t work
May be he scared o death... i mean in this seco hand things, you cant trust on anything. Anything can break... id recommend sing a parachute and be ready to escape each momn ewen if his works... i mean woodrn wings... and we are talking about old woods ... rusty engie mechanism which has potential fir failing on more then one module...
But still it can be relatively saf for low altitude flights with not much heawy and sharp objects on ground...
I'd bet that thing would fly ZERO issues as it sits (with obviously the fuel line repair and an inspection for major damage or unkept issues) but man that thing looks like it was built proper. Definitely a handful to fly especially when it's windy but wow that thing will be a blast!!
That little bottle is for the rotary valve not for the fuel. That a rotax 582. Now I didn’t see the oil bottle for oil injection. So I would definitely pre-mix. Now on my 582 I do a leak down test. Same as a lycoming. Those main seals are good for 5 years or 150hrs. I would do your homework on these rotax’s. And your fuel burn is going to be closer to 5 gal an hour.
Perhaps the bottle you're thinking of is the white plastic one mounted on the passenger side of the firewall @ 24:53.
@@markszyszkiewicz The bottle on the passengers side firewall is the radiator overflow bottle. The small reservoir mounted on the engine above the carbs is for the ROTARY valve, that's it. This engine has no oil injection pump and is set up for Pre-Mix ONLY.
Less stress and loads of fun! You look so relaxed and happy sitting in that cockpit! You deserve some downtime! Enjoy it in Utah! Great idea!
Thank you for all the positivity, the Rescue Crew wouldn't be the same without all the support and kindness you all share ! Have a great weekend !
Oh the beautiful simplicity of 2 stroke engines… a little tlc here and there and they’re so easy and fun to work with/on.
It's super important to find someone with Kitfox time to teach you to fly this. They are a blast to fly but can be a real handful.
That is for sure. 😃 I just bought a Kitfox 7 and responsive is the word. I'm flying with a CFI with 600 hours in a Kitfox. It seems a lot milder as I get more time in it. 😊
That applies to any ultralight. 'Real' aircraft owners and pilots look down on ultralights as not being 'real' aircraft. I have both licences. The fact is that flying Cessnas, Pipers and the like is like flying an armchair compared to flying an ultralight. The former fly through the air whereas the ultralight is part of it meaning that you're flying stick and rudder the whole time. It doesn't come easy to 'real' aircraft pilots - myself included - can be very tiring in the beginning and can take a while before you're confident and proficient.
Here's a little story. A pal of mine who now holds an ultralight licence, already held 'real' aircraft and helicopter licences when he flew in the right hand seat of an ultralight which he was about to own. The weather wasn't particularly active, a bit but not too much, but after I'd handed him the controls he handed them back within a minute or so because he found the conditions too demanding for him.
I acquired that aircraft from him a short while back - an Xair - and it's on my channel. I flew it from the UK down to south-west France where I now live and have another, a Savannah, which I occasionally fly to the UK and back as it's more capable. Someone once said to me that the thing to remember is modern ultralights are pretty safe - they can only just kill you. And he was right.
Why is the stick so short
@@rylanthompson5844 Said the actress to the bishop...
@@battz99 🏴☠️hell nah
As a old, and I mean old, like 77, 2 stroke motorcycle rider/ mechanic, I just loved your explanation of the colour of the spark plug electrodes re leanness/richness!
Thank you mate from Australia.
I have watched all the episodes about 401, now I want you to take off with this little thing! I hope you do read these comments from one year old episodes. Don't forget about this plane! We want more! We want more! We want more....
The Rotax 532 had single ignition, your motor has dual which indicates it's a 582. That little oil reservior is for the rotary valve only, and should be kept full, the engine doesn't have an oil injection pump and is PRE-MIX only. You add oil to the gas. 50:1.
Actually it is a dual mag 532. Rare I know. It also seems to have oil injection. Again- rare.
Rotax 582 Bombardier
Well, that little oil reservoir is used to lube the waterpump gear and center main bearings on newer Rotax snowmobile engines, and I suspect it also lubes the rotary valve on that engine. So, in a way, you have to check the oil on it.
I wonder what that aircraft would say about an 800 etec engine with a proper pipe. Then you would have an engine that has a computer that adjust for altitude, fuel injection that has no problems with upside down running. And something like 150 HP.
@@buckmurdock2500 it's a greyhead. Model 90 582
Engine seizure about to occur once the oil runs out
What I would give to be able to learn to fly. None of the schools around Spokane teach the Sportsman certification. Being a retired Navy veteran I can’t afford $11.000. I am going to live vicariously through your videos. Thank you for the videos you put out. May God Bless you.
I feel your pain. I am a disabled former mechanic and over the road trucker, and I want to learn to fly so bad I can taste it. Unfortunately, disability is not very lucrative, so I sit on the ground.
There is a school in Florida teaching powered motor glider in about a week! You can get your glider pilots license in a pipistrel powered motor glider for less than half that!
@@coupedayville4038 - I live in Florida - where is it?
Thank you for your service Brother. Means a lot to us that you spend some of your time here with us. Hoping you get up flying with someone soon.
@@JK35280 here in Britain anything to do with flying it rigidly controlled with at least one zero added onto the price tag of anything air related, even radio control is now going that way, and you know once it starts the paper work keeps on multiplying along with regulations to keep us "safe",I don't know what the situation is in the States but here even after you get your license you need to fly twenty hours,(I believe that is correct), just to keep your license, at about £100 an hour last time I looked, (unless you own your plane and then you have the other costs!), stay safe out there and we can but dream.
Lots of fun to fly indeed! Tail draggers, need I say more? Whew, a whole different ball game. My first flight back in the air after my motorcycle accident was with a friend in hit kit fox. Lovely aircraft!
Jason finally says "fuselage" correctly but still struggles with "radiator"
Cute plane. It looks better with the engine covers on it! I have read lots of comments. Lots of good knowledgeable advice.
What about doing a video with quick status updates of all the various projects that are currently ongoing?
This is a really cool plane! It would be exciting to see it flying! Happy saturday, everyone! 🙌🏼
Thanks for watching Stoyan, have a good weekend !
its sunday hi from the future lol
That was the easiest will it start I've seen!! Heck yes!! Be safe and God Bless y'all!!!
Jason, that doesn't have oil injection. That little reservoir is for the butterfly valves and must be kept topped up with normal 2-stroke oil. You run the engine on 50:1 premix. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. If you put straight 100LL or mogas in that tank you were running that lovely engine without oil. BTW that's a Rotax 532, out of production for many years and parts are increasingly difficult to get hold of. If you seize it it'll be a brick.
Don’t worry the fuel we put in it had 2 ounces for every gallon of fuel giving it a 50:1 ratio mixture. I didn’t add that to the edit. 👍🏼
@@rebuildrescue wrote: _Don’t worry the fuel we put in it had 1 once for every gallon of fuel giving it a 50:1 ratio mixture._
Uh, 50:1 would be 2.6 oz per gallon. 1oz per gallon is a ratio of 128:1, so basically you ran the engine without lubrication.
@@buckmurdock2500 I fat fingered my response 🤣
I used a ratio rite measuring cup to make sure the correct oil was added to the mixture.
@@rebuildrescue you're getting closer. Now at 64:1 ratio
@@lesterawilson3 100% 😂🤣👍🏼
Kool little plane !!! Cant wait to see you fly it !!!
I got to say I was binge watching this cuz of the 401 about a month ago. I am just a guy, I know nothing about planes but you got me hooked so really hope you keep this channel going
Every time I see "EXPERIMENTAL" on the door I want to print off a decal and put it right below it that says "So Let's Experiment!"
Well done! I really enjoy your videos!
It’s a 532, with a 582 head. So a dual ignition system can be added. The 532 had points ignition only firing one plug on each cylinder. The other ignition is 12 volt and not Rotax.
It’s a rotary valve engine so the oil bottle is to lubricant the valve shaft that drives 90 degrees to crankshaft. It’s a 50:1 oil mix. The gear box which is the B box. Like all Rotax gearboxes can be mounted either way up as can the engine. That’s why there is two level plugs. Id suggest you mix the oil to the fuel if you want it to run any longer. Also the 532 had a weak crankshaft. Id replace that engine with a late blue head 582.
It's a snowmobile engine
@@waynerohde1036
No mate, Rotax produced these for aircraft
Do not recommend any two strokes. Those are built to fail. 80 hp 912 is way to go
@@jarkom9 Clearly you know very little about 2 - stroke engines
That's probably true. But I have also never had forced landing. I have heard stories about those 2-stroke pilots who have had more than three. Luckily those times are well gone
Great job in getting it started, the engine sounds very good.
Great adventure! Thanks for sharing!
We appreciate that Philip, it's good to see you again !
VERY interesting video, full of practical info. Thanks for posting.
Great video Jason. I can’t wait to see it fly.
When you said there was a film of oil on the carb slides, that’s another clue that it’s premix.
What a fun little plane! That was super exciting when it fired up. My best guess on the prop is its toast. If the finish is cracking that usually means there is an issue with the wood. That's probably not a major setback. Good luck! Can't wait to see this in the air.
So glad you enjoyed the episode ! Thank you for stopping by this morning and supporting us !
Hey Jason, when you were trying to get into the plane I was reminded what my father used to say about tight squeezes - "Stop trying to get 3 lbs. of crap in a two lb. bag!!" Luv ya brother!! Nice find!!!
Looks like a great little plane. It fired right up!
One of the easier starts here at Rebuild Rescue...😂
Very nice starts!!!
Congrats!!!
I love your channel. I've been watching some of the 401 rebuild videos and love it. I use to be an automotive master tech so not much I can do to help with airplanes since I don't hold an AP license.
Pretty cool little airplane! I would love to see it fly though.
That was sweet to fire up so easily! Best Wishes for all of your endeavors Jason! 🛩️
Thank you for all the support Brother !
I Agree stick to the 401
Dude. Jimmy never forgets to say, can I get a clear prop!
Love this little thing!
Isn't it nice when things just... work ? It looks like those planes used for advertisement. Really awesome find! Congrats! Greetings from Rio de Janeiro ;D
Can't believe I haven't found your channel sooner. I used to take lessons out of Smoketown. Very close! Awesome content! You got a new fan
Such a pleasure to watch you fettle the little lady binto life after her long sleep crack on keep it safe
Thank you for watching Barry !
Kit Fox and Avid Flyer were my dreams when I was still a young and enthusiastic pilot...somewhere in the early 90s.These two aircraft were among the first ultralights in our new country.
Good luck and enjoy flying with it :)
Like others said that small oil reservoir is only for the rotary valve. Not for the engine lube!
love the squeaky ambiance
The rotary valve tank is empty so unless it's an external hose leak it is a major repair.
The reservoir is to be filled with 2 stroke oil, not motor oil. This also indicates the motor does not have oil injection, meaning you have to mix oil in the fuel. The connected bowl vents are supposed to go to a HAC system....high altitude compensator. It applies vacuum to the bowls to change the fuel flow without jet changes. This is common snowmobile stuff. Its now been started on straight gas....the formerly pristine motor is junk now.
Nice find. Great content.
Thanks, that means a lot !
Thank You Sam!!
What a surprise. You have so many irons in the fire. Hope you get some of them done.
Can’t wait for next episode!
Thanks for watching Brother, we are happy you're here with us !
It looks like the fuel quick connect could the same as on my aprilia rsv mille, which also has a Rotax engine. Could be worth checking out for cheap repair.
I love watching the 401 videos but I would love to see videos on this kitfox getting restored!
Alright! Great Job, Congrats!!
What a gorgeous little aircraft, this one will fly long before the big twin will, and give a lot of enjoyment, the big twin you fly to go somewhere, this you fly just because you can, and personally it would be I can as often as possible, look forward to the updates on this gem.
Now I want to see it fly!! (Wish I could be there for that, but RUclips and RC are my escapes for flight)
We'll get her flying ! We appreciate all your support on the channel Brother, we are glad you are enjoying the channel !
Awsome, cant wait to see her fly.
I think everyone wants to see the big one finished first.
401 first
believe me the 401 is still being worked on Joe is still there working on the 401 and this might even being filmed on the same day as a different video. Relax and enjoy things are going forward and hopefully upwards too.
@@lindamorrison9755 - Of course it's being worked on, but keep in mind that a LOT of viewers send him a LOT of money to get the 401 done, but he might be spending it on other projects which are splitting his time.
Hes addicted to the buying and seeing whats wrong with things.
@Just Me I bet he spends more than what was sent to him before it is finished. I like seeing something I would more realistically own get flying also.
The kitfox needs a composite propeller. It’s wooden one is cracked and beyond it’s usefulness.
Nice nice nice.... It's like a barn find... Congrats 👏
Can't wait to see it fly very cool Jason....
Thank you Mike!
Cool little airplane, and only powered by a snowmobile engine! 😲😲
It's not a snowmobile engine. It's an aircraft engine. Rotax only made the 582 for aircraft. The aircraft engines has an awful lot of non-obvious differences from the snowmobile engines which they are *based upon*, but they are *not* the same thing.
I could watch this video over and over again. This is an awesome plane, beautiful. What a dream !😊
Glad you enjoyed it Joseph ! Thank you so much for watching !
@~ 18:00 , Thank You for mentioning crankcase oil . I was trying to remember if 2 strokes had crankcase oil ! dah lol .
Wow, very cool. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!!
Man. better hope that wing pin doesn't fall out while up in the air !
Very entertaining content 😉. Really like the little plane. Thanks for sharing 😊.
We are glad to hear, thank you for your positivity Bob!
Nice Victory CC, and cool airplane)
Looking forward to seeing this fly next to Trent or Nic out in utah! Interesting that prop is a left turning one.
Thats a cool plane, price is pretty good too.
That's what I am thinking !
Always an enjoyment watching your videos I'm sure your a very busy man but hopefully one day you may be able to get 2 videos in on a week going thru Rebuild Rescue withdrawals are not good LOL
Thank you for all the support Frank, and you never know !
Oh no, now Jason will become the Trent Palmer of Coatsville. 😆
The engine is not as low-time as you may think. TBO on the 2 strokes is about 300 hours so 139 hours puts you almost half-way there. Also, if the plane has been sitting for a long time, you may want to replace the crankcase seals. If you blow a seal, the engine stops. Kitfox warns about that. The newer models went to certified 4 strokes. I wonder why the plane was parked in the hanger with the cowling off. Engine problems? Find out why, then fly.
@@buckmurdock2500 Thanks Buck. You're right. RR did remove the cowling.
Resistor plugs have been common since the 60's.
The engine looks like the grey head 582 I have in my Avid Flyer. (Predecessor of the Kitfox) Mine has oil injection but it's common for people not to trust them so many strip them out and convert them to premix only.
Watching you run that with straight gas was painful..... The only thing that kept it from incurring damage is the old fuel that had oil in it. Keep running it like that and you WILL kill it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How do you know he didn't have oil in that fuel? Uh, sounds to me like 1 you know shit about engines, and 2 you know shit about engines. The entire time he ran that thing I saw blue smoke puffing from the exhaust. That, my friend with no engine experience, means there's OIL burning with the fuel. I'm pretty sure he'll be ok, dude was a mechanic for years and years on race cars and the like. Relax
@Anthony Blacker Maybe because he called the rotary valve oil reservoir the source for the oil injection, which the engine does not have, that he claimed it did have. Then the fact that he had to fill that reservoir with oil tells me the rotary valve is leaking into the crankcase. Between all that oil in the cases, and the old premixed gas in the gas tank, is why you saw smoke when it was running. So put that info in your pipe and smoke it, buddy. I've owned and maintained engines exactly like this for years, hundreds of hours. You obviously don't know jack about them like Jason.
Can't wait to see it fly
Do some reading jason. You have no clue. That is the rotary valve tank . Not oil injection.
I used to fly an Australian certified version. They’re easy to fly in the air but twitchy on the ground/ landing ect. You will need training in one or you will most likely bend it. Plus the stick only needs to be moved a little bit.
So true. In some circles it’s considered a high performance aircraft. I’ve had 2. The 2nd one had a Jabiru 2200. It was an awesome lil aircraft. I wished I hadn’t sold it.
like a competition with Jimmys world
I also agree about the engine TT .
Hopefully you guys premixed oil in the fuel too. The oil bottle only provides oil for the rotary valve on the 582.
Yes Sir 50:1 👍🏼
@@rebuildrescue In the video you filled up the rotary valve reservoir and told everyone that's where the oil injection gets it's oil from. And said nothing about mixing gas when you poured it in the wing tank. That engine has no injection pump, is set up for premix only. I've got two 582's and a 503 that I've been flying the past 5 years. If you have any questions feel free to reach out.
@@tomrc4328 you won't get an answer. You are a hater now because you called him out.
@@brendangardam710 Sad but true... Not being able to own up to such a simple mistake says a lot about a person. I thought Jason was a stand up guy that wanted to be correct, he should have appreciated the correction, but instead he's ignored all the comments about his lack of Rotax knowlege. *shrug
@@tomrc4328 Hey Tom thank you for taking your time to come over to the comments and nicely give us that info on the Rotax. Unfortunately in my hast of getting the video edited I had left in my total misinformed fact of the rotary valve lubrication reservoir as the fuel oil injection reservoir. Many times in an edit we’ll leave out multiple things to keep the episode moving. Also the episode can actually run through multiple days of work like in this case. Before adding fuel we did identify the need for pre-mixing the fuel/oil as this unit doesn’t have an oil injection setup on it. Had we not the engine would have locked up very quickly.
Wow! Keep up the good work. :)
Thank you for stopping by this morning!
Jason's World! "Can I get a clear prop!"
Cool new project!!
Thank you Lance ! Let's see what we can do !
Yeah, another project 🙄
thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I feel like we got a winner here…looks like a good buy and won’t be long u oughta be able to have that in the air…good job man
I 100% agree Brody, we are all excited for this one! Thank you for watching and commenting, we love talking to you guys !
@@rebuildrescue u bet man thanks for the response buddy…love what y’all put out on here just keep em comin
the rotax engines have a rotary valves behind the cover that the carbs hook too the little bottle on top of the engine is for straight 2stroke oil and it is there to lube the rotary gear bearings if there is not an oil injection reservoir or injection pump you have to premix failure to keep the little bottle full of oil will result in the failure of the bearings then the rotary gear shaft will stop and the brass gear on the shaft will shatter and you will no longer have compression just remember to keep it full
Nice looking victory in the hangar
I like the Armada. Also cool channel and content.
Love this plane. You really need to do a bio video. I’m curious on your background, career, etc.
That's a cool idea !
Hmm 🤔 Is it just me, or did half way through the video the audio track became unsynchronized with the video?
Until the IV, treat as ultralight. Do NOT transport with swept wings without the braces that mount at the tail!
Klutz Benol, my favorite for my Karts back in my Kart racing days.(I love the way it smells ,The exhaust smell.) I have a quart of benol in my shop cabinet out side.
Any else getting a bunch of audio/video desync as of ~21:30?
Bravo.go ahead
Thanks for bringing us along on the adventure. It's interesting to read some of the comments regarding learning to pilot such a craft. Good preparation, good luck, and good weather be with you.
i think the tbm bonnie,cardinal,freedom and at least one piper are finished
Skidoo motors are good. 503
And 462cc .. relatively good motor.
the inside looks nice
What a find!
I had several 1975 Suzuki RE-5 rotary motorcycle that had the oil injection pump. Not one of them had a oil injection system you could trust and that would ruin the seals, loosing compression. Always premix.
A few notes on 2 stroke oil. First of all, while Castor oil is an okay at inhibiting rust, it's not near as good as a modern synthetic with a dedicated rust inhibitor package. Secondly, if the engine has a premix system, Castor oil is probably not the best choice for it. It's likely too thick. Looks like maybe you maybe have to premix in the wings and put in oil for the power valve in the small reservoir. Benol is definitly not great for power valves. R50 would be a good choice there as well. Also Klotz has a Snowmobile Techniplate which might be a good choice. I like Klotz R50 synthetic in my 2 stroke motorcycles, but I'd check and see what's recommended for Rotax aircraft usage.
I started flying in 1973, in a Cessna 150. I am a FIRM believer in learning to fly in small, LIGHT aircraft! The 'cork in a bottle.'
FIrst and foremost, you learn early and QUICKLY 'where the wind comes from and which direction to put the Ailerons!' You learn how to use the controls, from straight to cross controlling with winds from different directions when Taking off and Landing.
And you learn to be SMOOTH on the controls because the slightest control input WILL move the Airplane!!
Transitioning from the C-150 to a C-172/182/206 (or Piper 140/180, Grumman Tiger, and the 12 other Single Engine planes I've logged time in...) was like going from a Sports car... to a Truck!! But I KNEW how to fly!! =)
Have FUN with the Kitfox... and yes, change the Fuel OVerflow as they CAN catch fire. Happy Flying!! =)
Finish the 401 if you can.
