Glossary

Do gyroplanes have fuel injection?

Electronically controlled fuel injection, standard on the Rotax 912 iS, 915 iS and 916 iS engines, replacing the carburetors used on earlier Rotax variants. It manages mixture automatically as altitude and temperature change, without the pilot leaning a carburetor by hand.

Also called EFI

That is the whole entry for now. The longer version, with the mechanics and worked examples, is still to be written. See autorotation for how those read once they exist.
