I've been lurking here for a few months and thought I should introduce myself. Name is Wayne Schneider and I live in Utah where the air is thick and cold, lol.
Last summer I purchased N359RT which is a modified Twinstar Mark II with a Rotax 532. Yes, you read that correctly, it's the predecessor to the 582. SIngle ignition but otherwise very much the same.
Unfortunately, it has a WarpDrive propeller whose MMI is too much for the A gearbox so I'll be swapping that out before summer. And, I need to do a complete inspection. Does anybody need a slightly used 3 blade 68" prop?
New guy,
Wayne

Back when I had a 532 on my MKIII, I found it worked really well with a two blade 66" Ivo. Initially I had a three blade 64" Ivo and that was just too much prop for the somewhat pipey 532. Took away one of the blades and it ran really happy, enough so that I could go to the next longer size Ivo, and that worked good too.
Then I replaced the points ignition with one of Airscrew Performance's CDI ignition systems and was pleased with it.
