doh. the 912iS sounds so much better on paper; didn't realize it's a headache. But is that due to the RV-12is install, or would other kits have this issue too? Is the filter location a lot more accessible in the original RV-12?
The original RV12 has the ULS which has two carburetors. The headaches revolve around the location on the 12 fuselage. I’m sure the engine will prove to be superior to the ULS. I just wouldn’t want anything to do with the maintenance. With two carbs you have balancing issues also; no free lunch in this business. I do like the little engine and the airframe is pure RV.
