Majority of the components are machined in Southern Queensland in a network of small companies. 80hp @ 2900 rpm; 85 hp @ 3300 rpm (Revised), Cruse power 0.46 lbs per horsepower hour (274 grams / Kw-hour at cruse power. Below are links to information of the Jabiru engines. They are easy to install with the standard Xair mounts, reasonably priced, have great fuel efficiency, a 2000 hr TBO and have proven themselves quite reliable. All installations require an oil cooler to meet oil temperature limits. It is an ideal replacement for the Rotax 582 2-cylinder 2-stroke engine which powers many of the existing light aircraft; surprisingly it is the same weight as the Rotax 582. An internal gear pump, direct mounted on the camshaft and incorporating a small automotive spin-on filter, provides engine lubrication. The crankshaft is designed with a double bearing at the propeller flange end and a main bearing between each big end. The Xair and Xair H Aircraft are particularly well suited for the Jabiru 2000A aircraft engine. [...]. They are fitted with 3 rings.
