Fellow Rotor-heads:
I received an e-mail from a guy who is selling parts from Alan VanWinkle’s estate. It looks like there are quite a few good pieces to be had that could be used as “spares”, or to get a project moving ahead. Alan was building an RV-9”A", and this package includes a nice engine mount that I believe should also work on an RV-7 fuselage, and there is also an intake from the Swiss company that I think went broke, as well as an RWS EM2 controller and and re-drive, plus many extras such as sending units, wires, gaskets, etc.
I know nothing about the credibility of Mr. Bauer, and i’m just posting this so anyone interested can pursue it further, and hopefully get something they need that will get them flying sooner. :)
Stay safe out there!
Doug

Doug,
You emailed a month ago. Here are several photos of the engine, prop reduction gear and more. I have very little information as I bought this from an estate. And am ignorant concerning its completeness. Happy to get more photos or answer any questions I can.
