I have a Mainair Blade microlight (ultralight) Ireland which uses a Blue To
p Rotax 582 manufactured in 2002. It has a Doughnut as did the Grey Top mod
el which saved my gearbox & engine during a prop strike in 2006!

I agree about the donuts, my triumph GT6 Mk2 had them on the drive shafts.
I also know someone who used them on his ultralight which used a car diesel
engine. When it failed he lost drive to the prop and the forced landing to
talled the aircraft. That may be why Rotax didn=99t use them in the g
earbox.
A very interesting thread this one all the same.
