The powerplant options include the four cylinder, liquid-cooled, four-stroke, dual-ignition 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS engine, or the 115 hp (86 kW) turbo-charged Rotax 914 engine. [1] [2] Originally an open-cockpit design with dual windshields, in 2013 a bubble canopy was introduced as an option. It weighs 20 kg (44 lb) and can be installed ...
Time between overhauls (abbreviated as TBO or TBOH) is the manufacturer's recommended number of running hours or calendar time before an aircraft engine or other component requires overhaul. [ 1 ] On rotorcraft , many components have recommended or mandatory TBOs, including main rotor blades , tail rotor blades and gearboxes .

The dry-sump system uses two or more oil pumps and a separate oil reservoir, as opposed to a conventional wet-sump system, which uses only the main sump (U.S.: oil pan) below the engine and a single pump. A dry-sump engine requires a pressure relief valve to regulate negative pressure inside the engine, so internal seals are not inverted.
Apollo Fox. The company produces a wide variety of aircraft including five ultralight trike models, the Delta Jet, Jet Star, Monsoon, Racer GT, C15D Toples and the Classic. Apollo also makes a single fixed wing microlight, the Fox which is a copy of the Denney Kitfox and a gyroplane, the Gyro AG1. [1] [2] [3] [4]
The oil pump is an internal combustion engine part that circulates engine oil under pressure to the rotating bearings, the sliding pistons and the camshaft of the engine. This lubricates the bearings, allows the use of higher-capacity fluid bearings , and also assists in cooling the engine.
A total-loss oiling system is an engine lubrication system whereby oil is introduced into the engine and then either burned or ejected overboard. Now rare in four-stroke engines, total loss oiling is still used in many two-stroke engines.
