    West Cost port "slow down" does not affect Miami shipments. Customs has inspected my last 4 or 5 containers now. All they find every time is a load of "toy airplanes". They open a few boxes (randomly selected)m, and re-seal them with their "US customs tape". Then they send me the bill for...

    Also, please make sure the wing tube is no too long (we have seen a few wing tubes and stab tubes that were up to 1/4" too long. Add up the width of the fuse, plus the two wing sockets. It too long, is can easily be cut with a dremel.

    DA-120 Compact Mufflers for Edge finally posted

    They do not: they do not want to deal with the public, or retail level. We are looking to see if they can make DLE 120 mufflers: it's a number game, and if there is enough demand, I will carry them. I will soon add the DA-60 Pitts Style muffler: I send my own engine for him to make the...

    DA-120 Compact Mufflers for Edge finally posted

    With all the changes over that past year (moving the warehouse coast to coast, and moving the family from an island to Florida!), it has taken us a long time to begin catching up on the web site updates. The J&A mufflers were available to all who called, but not directly on the web site. They...

    No split cowls on 50cc and smaller. This ads unnecessary weight. I installed a DA-70 in the 50cc Extra with no trouble. Same with the Valley View 40 in the 35cc Extra.

    PAU 30% Edge

    DA ignitions are made in Australia. The new ignition for the DA-35 has JR/Futaba connector receptacles right on the enclosure, one for the hall sensor, one for the power. It is also high voltage rated. For security, I hot glued the connectors so they don't accidentally pull out...
