Martin,

as you know, the original Ducati regulators on Rotax 914/914 engines are not
very resistant to heat. I am looking since a while for a substitute and so I
am very interested in this regulator. Do you have more details about this
regulator?

Thank you.

Hi Folks,

I fitted my new regulator today - oh why did I use regular stiff nuts on
those bolts which meant I had to remove the panel?!

Ah yes, the joy of removing the panel. If I had to do it again I would do a
whole lot of things differently/better - maybe we ought to compile a
database?

Anyway, test flown and all is well - a steady 14 volts indicated throughout
the whole flight, which incidentally took me to my highest altitude ever in
my Europa 11,500 ft. Not bad for a 912 with a fixed prop. I was still doing
300 fpm.

Thanks for all the advice on the subject.

Regards,
