Screw Head Identification on Rotax Parts:
There are some special fasteners on the Rotax engine that aren’t mentioned in any manual.
The wait is finally over! The big moment has come, and we are thrilled to announce that the ROTAX family has just gotten bigger and better! Introducing our newest addition to the family - an impossible engine that will take your performance to the next level! With shorter take-off distances and steeper climbing phases, even heavier aircraft can soar like never before. Let's take off to new heights together.
It is essential for all ROTAX aircraft engine owners to ensure that their engine is registered online.
Registering your engine links your Rotax product with warranty services, proof of ownership, recall notifications and bonus campaigns. Warranty coverage not only protects your engine - it protects your wallet.
This central online paperless engine registration process offers various advantages for Rotax aircraft engine owners.
First of all, it is very important for BRP-Rotax to get to know their customers and their engines in operation. This allows to optimize the distribution and service network according to customer's needs. With our modern reality of global supply chain disruptions, an accurate real-time view of all engines in the field is essential for the timely planning and fulfillment of spare parts supplies.
Another advantage is that in case of a reported engine theft, a re-registration of this engine is impossible.
Please note that when a new and unused engine is purchased from a ROTAX® authorized Aircraft Engines distributor or their independent Service Centers, that the engine owner must register the engine on the ROTAX website within 30 days of purchasing the engine. This is a requirement for warranty coverage; please refer to the service letter "Warranty conditions for ROTAX® Aircraft Engines".
If you purchase a used ROTAX aircraft engine that is still within its warranty coverage period, the warranty (and any ROTAX CARE extended warranty, if applicable) shall be transferred and shall be valid for the remaining coverage period, provided that the engine was properly registered online as described in the document above. You (the new owner) are then required to re-register the engine online, without delay.
