Dan, You are right. This crimpers would not be the one that you would use for a
standard aviation terminal connectors. This tool could be used for avionics
connectors as in DSUB Machine pins. A common connector that is used for making
wire harnesses are Molex connectors. You would need to use a

This crimper is not what I would use. For one thing, the thickness of
the ferrule crimped onto the wire is very thin. If you crimp something,
you want it to really crush the wires and the crimped metal around it
together, providing what is, in essence, a connection that becomes one

My son sent me a YouTube link demonstrating a four-sided rotary crimper that is
nicely priced for us "cheap" KR builders. The terminals that they are
demonstrating are not really proper for us but the crimper would

The rotary engines keeps popping up (in my research) as a viable and
very reliable engine with good potential for aircraft use.
Can you point me toward any sites where they are already working in this
capacity?

Never mind the weight and balance, anyone putting 200 hp in
Thanks Dana. I have beefed up the fuselage in the firewall area and will be
adding a few other mods to the KR (longer wings, add a couple of bays out
back, increase the horizontal stabilizer area as well as the rudder) She
will also have only one seat. Burial plot already taken care of.
