Beringer brakes & tubeles tires on DA62
Posted: Mon Oct 12, 2020 7:54 am
I am shortly finalizing my purchase order for a new DA62 (btw thanks CFIdave for help with the coloring, got it sorted!)
However, there are few thingies I am still contemplating and the factory seems to be a bit slow on responses. I hope fellows here could provide the information
1) I have read about tubeless tires. Are they worth it? Any positives / negatives compared to the stock ones with tubes that come with DA62?
2) I have enquired about Beringer brakes. I was told certification for DA62 is Q2/2021. Reading comments on the forum tells me that these would be worth the wait. Currently the plane would have delivery time April / May range from LOAN. So, extend the wait time a bit to get these brakes worth the wait?
3) The new scimitar propellers seem to be available to DA42. What I heard from the MT propellers they are also available for DA62 - but then I heard from my dealer that I should forget about them. I am a bit confused, do I have this option or not?
Thanks for any insight.
