Hi all,
I’m not entirely sure this is the correct place to ask so please bear with me!
I’m trying to find a (cheap!) used Rotax 503 for use in my hovercraft, and was advised to ask on some of the aviation forums.
Can anyone advise where to find one, or possibly has one themselves their selling?
It doesn’t necessarily have to be a 503; the Racing specs say I can have any aircooled engine up to 500cc…so 503 is probably the most powerful I can get for that. Would prefer something that doesn’t rev to rediculous rpms – ideal pto is ~7000rpm.

I don’t need a gearbox, but carbs, exhaust, and a runner would be nice:)
Kind regards,
Toby

I’ve just sent off an email to them.
Today I managed to melt the mag piston, so to be honest I think it’s worth biting the bullet and upgrading to a 503 from my 447, instead of repairing it.

Are you in the UK Toby? Have you spoken to Nigel Beale at Skydrive in Deppers nr Southam?
