SportairUSA, which just introduced EPApower engines and performance parts for Rotax, is showing the Dallair FR-100 Light Sport Aerobat, powered by EPApower, at AirVenture.
“EPApower has long built custom engines for automotive racing teams,” said Bill Canino, President of SportairUSA, “and has recently turned its attention to the aviation market.”
Canino noted that “EPApower engines and products have been flight-proven for many years in aerobatic practice and performance.”
The EPApower SA-R915i is a 130-hp competition engine, built with a Rotax 900 series base, with 1484 cc displacement, electronic fuel injection, Gen2 auxiliary 26-amp alternator, 4 into 1 exhaust, fully balanced and polished. An inverted oil system is available for aerobatic aircraft, officials add.
EPApower produces two variants of the Rotax 912 ULS engine. The SA-R912i is a polished and dynamically balanced 912 ULS with EPApower electronic fuel injection and electronic ignition management. The 912+ is a polished and dynamically balanced 912 ULS.
