Well done, your motorglider project looks really cool. May I ask, what kind of engine is that? I don't have much experience in powered machines I only fly gliders but I feel like a Woodstock could be self launch by using a paramotor engine, they are lightweight and not complicated so no modification is required. Well, the trouble is props are all pusher :unsure:

Happy new year!
Luke

Hi Luke . Indeed , the engine is used in paramotor . It is from my own production trikes and paramotors company. It weighs completly is 11.2 kg , has centrifugal clutch and mechanical gearbox. The motorglider was prepared to host the engine in the nose . Delivery 64 kg of thrust and has 125 c.c. (1.8 liters/hour in cruise)

Best Regards.

P.D.: Some videos about test flight soon.

Hi Cristobal,

Thanks for sharing your 'before & after' photos - you have done a really nice job refurbishing your Woodstock and I can't wait to see some video of this old bird taking to the skies once again! Well done!

Happy New Year,

Phil.
