Re: Nipper G-AVXD
Hi.
I have a Lodge 56x34 propeller. I took it off my Nipper (VW 1834, Acro engine) because I have fitted a Hercules prop. It’s in good condition.

Re: Canopies
Hi all.
I have a Mk1 Nipper ( GBWCT ) and now a cracked canopy
I have drilled the end of the crack for now but would like to buy one. Are they available now?

Re: Tie down points
Hi Paul. Thanks for your reply. I don’t want to compromise the integrity of the wing. Probably best to look at another one “in the flesh” and take a measurement of where it is fixed exactly. It does feel solid in the general area of the one I saw a picture of on the forum. I would probably make them...

Tie down points
Hi all. I have owned my Nipper, G-BWCT since July and I am enjoying it immensely, Niel Spooner is right about the grin! My question is about tie down points/brackets. Mine doesn’t have any. I have seen pictures of other nippers with these on the ends of the wings. Not knowing the construction of the...

Re: OWNERS 'TESTIMONIALS' - WHAT ARE THEY LIKE TO OWN & FLY
Hi Jim. I’d be really interested in the drawings for the wheels. I’m new to Nippering. I’ve just acquired G-BWCT. The brakes are really not very good. I am looking into changing them for a hydraulic setup. I’ve found a lever /piston assembly that fits a downhill mountain bike and has the capacity to...

Re: LeBurg ignition installation
Hi Everyone, I’m new to the group and also to Nippers. Sorry if this a really old post but does anyone know where could buy a Leburg kit since Skycraft seem to have gone bust.
