Thanks for the replies guys. I was wondering about the enstrom because they seem to be cheaper to buy than the robbo and have longer time on a lot of the components.
the one little glitch that seem fairly obviouse, is the lack of maintanance facilitys that work on them.
I was guessing it was a nasty little circle that might have kept them from the mustering game. not many about = not to many LAME's required = not to many bought and used due to the dificulty having it serviced and worked on.
not much slower than the Robbo (Ok, a few knots) and uses a bit more fuel, but hey, the 47s use a lot more fuel and delivers a lot less.
Havn't heard of to many pranging in the bush either........... but that could be directly proportional to the number of them out there.
Any one have any figures on them? costs, weights, speeds, Tbo on parts, Ect.
