Hi to the Rebel Builders Community
I am new to the site, referred by Mr. Patterson. This is info overload but will be a great resourse when I start building. I am looking at a Rebel with the 100 hp Rotax and want to use Full Lotus Floats for remote lakes in the northeastern part of Saskatchewan. I presently live in Fort McMurray Alberta and plan on moving south within the next year and starting my Rebel project.
Is the 912 ULS 100 hp enough power if loaded to 1400 to 1500 lbs on Full Lotus Floats. The lake area I will be flying from will be difficult to access AV Fuel which is the main reason I want to stick with Rotax. I say now I will never load to max but it probably will happen once or twice. I have read where the 2150 floats are best for the Rebel.
I would appreciate any info from Rebel owners who have similar planes. If possible a few pics would be appreciated.
Thanks
Blaine Kresse
