Greetings,

I'm considering installing a B&C light weight alternator, SD-8 (8amp and
2500 rpm) in my Pitts. Serious weight reduction from my old generator.....
My electrical system consists of an Icom A200 that draws practically nothing
and a fuel pump that is turned on for t/o, landing and aerobatics. With my
average flight being about .4 does anyone on this list have thoughts as to
whether this will keep my battery charged or if I have to introduce
supplemental charging. I'm sure there are lots of Pitts pilots out there
who are using this alternator. Thanks for any input.
