Ventus 2cxM Solo 2625 01 EGT Installation

[Chris Woolley]

Has anyone fitted an EGT (exhaust gas temperature) to a Ventus 2526 01 solo
engine?
I'm looking for information on what to purchase and how to install it.
Unfortunately the Schempp-Hirth or Solo are unable to help. This is very
disappointing.
DG offer an EGT option on their Solo 2625 01 engine however they only offer
for purchase the EGT probes.
I can only assume that the EGT display is integrated into their EMS (Engine
Management System).

Yes the DG EGT's values are shown on the digital display so you would
have to come up with your own system. Even if all of the parts were
available from Solo a standalone system would be simpler to install.
Aircraftspruce.com and Leadingedgeairfoils.com both carry dual EGT
gauges and probes.

Hi Chris,

You might want to research the Go-Karting websites, local suppliers in Oz will be able to kit you up.
Watch the implications for regs, however.
