Re: W&B questions

James, Your numbers sound very similar to mine. I also have the Revmaster and have to use reflexor for all take offs and landings. I trim with reflexor so that it flies level at 100 mph and I

Re: W&B questions

Hawkeye, The gross for a Revmaster Q2 is 1,000 lbs. 200 over would be 1,200 not 1,300. Would not want to be in one at 1,300. I have seen one fly at 1,200 and it is marginal; about 150 fpm climb

Re: W&B questions

Hawkeye, I am going to give you some numbers that were crunched on my Q200. I figured some of the arms by using the POH and working the math backwards somehow. If you have the new canard the final

Re: W&B questions

Hawkeye, I recommend that you fly it as is. But try the unstick test series first. You want to make sure that you can get the canard off first with full reflexor. Looking at your weights they look

Re: W&B questions

Hawkeye, My Q2 showed weight and balance was near the aft limit with me and full fuel and behind the aft CG limit with a passenger. However, when I flew it I found that it flys nose heavy. I have

Re: W&B questions

Doug, Sounds like you have inadvertently added an extra couple of inches in there. The firewall sits at 14" aft of datum. Your header tank would be against the back of the instrument panel if its

Sighting - A Quickie Dealer

Some of you old-timers may wonder what happened to the Quickie dealers who disappeared when the company went under. I ran across Mike Huffman this evening at an EAA meeting. He sold kits out of

Re: W&B questions

Hawkeye, Are you using theQ-200 envelope or the Q-2 envelope? The two lines represent the two limits, forward and aft. The Q-200 (LS-1) has a forward limit of 41.5 inches and a aft limit of 47.3

Differential elevator movement

I am going over the control stick rigging and am curious what some of you other builders have for differential elevator movement when the control stick is moved between the left and right limit stops.

Re: W&B questions

My flight adviser & I were reviewing my W&B numbers and we are confused. The graph that Quickie had in their ops manual has two lines going from lower left to upper right. They call this the

Re: IFR

No Helo IFR time in my past - or, even expected, in my future. Is there a Q-2 for FlightSim 2000? <G> ========================================

Re: IFR

Leon, I've only had my hand on the control stick of a Q200 twice, but I think if you have some good, hard, helicopter IFR time you might not have any problem. I've got a bit of that time in an ol'

IFR

Leon, Before you spend a lot of money on a nice IFR panel and intentions to fly the thing in conditions less than VMC, you ought to get some time in one of these airplanes. I passed my first

Re: IFR

Rest assured that I do not intend to push the envelop too far. It would just be nice to be able have the "back up" of basic IFR in case of things like dense ground fog which is common on some parts
