Pulsar lll For Sale

I am selling my Pulsar lll with the Rotax 914 turbocharged engine.  The kit is partially complete.  The only missing component is the propeller and its constant speed control.  Significant items needed to complete are:

  • Acquire and install propeller and constant speed control
  • Install side windows
  • Attach wings and control surfaces, have been attached previously
  • Fit and install wheel fairings
  • Prep for and apply paint
  • Inject brake fluid into break system

Of course there may be items that the builder may wish to install in the panel and there is room to do this.  Most of the wiring has been checked out but some of this can't be done until the engine is ready to run.  And, there are things that need to be changed or corrected that will show up in the process of finishing the airplane.

The engine installation is complete except for a propeller.  All the plumbing for coolant, oil and fuel has been done.  The throttles and choke controls, computer and instrumentation wiring are complete as is the complete induction system.

Pulsar Builders Group

There is an enormous amount of help available to the Pulsar builder through a group of builders and an email arrangement.  Builders  can get advice, help, sources of parts and supplies and a lot of other communications from guys and girls who really know about the problems and have solutions.  This group has a convention in Lawrence, Kansas every year with technical sessions and social activities.  Many of these people get together for fly-ins including trips to Sun-n-fun and Oshkosh.

 

Click on an image to enlarge it then move the curser off the enlarged image and back on.  A small rectangular icon will appear in the lower right corner of the picture.  Click on this icon and a very much larger picture will appear.  Use the pan bars at the right side and bottom of the double enlarged picture to pan.  Click on the icon again and the picture will go back to normal.  Click on back and you will return to the gallery.

Installation of Rotax 914 Turbocharged Engine

This installation is complete except for a propeller. It includes all controls, plumbing and wiring. Engine has been treated periodically for preservation.

Position light appears white but this is an led cluster and is green when lit. Use of led's significantly reduces current requirements for position lights. Landing light is a 2 inch 75 watt halogin lamp.
