Danny, When you pull the stick back on a Q in flight, the elevator is deflected down and the result is the nose goes up. Its a canard. Jim Patillo faster than causes up. This accelerate to the

What a deal Phil. Ron, I would take him up on the 30 G3s. I have been using the LightSpeed G3s for almost three years. I LOVE THEM. They work great and being able to plug in my MP3 player as

its trimmed airspeed, the slight undercamber of the LS(1) elevator causes aerodynamic force that pushes the trailing edge of the elevator up. This lets the airplane's nose come down and allows the

Ron, I have the headsets at my work place as another gentleman was interested at it. It's locked in my office at this time and I am home sick with the flu. I will send info tomorrow. Barry

Danny, This is not a common problem. In fact yours is the first I have heard of. It sounds to me like something is wrong with you sparrow strainers ( a minor fix). But, I would not fly it

Barry, what is the model # of the headset? Ron Triano South Lake Tahoe, CA Sonerai there and Q200 gettin there

Thanks Phil for the offer, from everything I hear about the lightspeed type that probably is the way I will go however what is a Marv Golden one? Ron Triano South Lake Tahoe, CA Sonerai there

Hello Ron: The Headset has Marv Golden's company logo on the earpieces, but is the identical unit manufactured and sold by Lightspeed. _http://www.lightspeedaviation.com/productsqfrx2.asp_

No they do not have a cell phone plug but Sporty's sells an adapter that will interface with the cell phone and is made for "aircraft" use. Barry

Ron: If you like, I could lend you a Marv Golden Logo'd version of the Lightspeed QFR Cross Country C. It has a cell phone interface and is a pretty nice unit. Or a 30 3 G Lightspeed (also with

Barry, thanks for the reply, do they have a cell phone plug-in? Ron Triano South Lake Tahoe, CA Sonerai there and Q200 gettin there

I have a noise cancelling telex headset powered by batteries for $250.00 plus shipping....New....that is I have wore them twice for a length of 1 hour total and bought them from a display case where

Paul, Not underneath. On top. It is UNdesirable to have undercambered elevators on canards. It IS desireable to have a slight REFLEX (reverse camber near the trailing edge) on the elevators of

David for what it's worth the subject of pitch spring effect came up a couple of years ago. I had complained that when the engine quit there is a scramble to adjust the trim to hold the nose up. The

Dave As a matter of interest, an old method of achieving trim was to 'dope' a length of string along the airfoil trailing edge, varying the length to achieve the desired effect. Do you think that

Michel, Yes. There is no undercamber on the GU elevator so the aero forces involved are not large. However, the system does rely on the up-spring to hold the trailing edge of the elevetor down in

Mail them via USPS. That should tie them up for a while. Phil

David, Does this apply to GU as well as LS1? I don't see a "slight undercamber" on my GU elevator. Thanks for such a clear explanation of the phenomenon. MM

I agree with you Darrell

My brother works for the wonderful UPS company, I think they need some Jimmy shootings in the management of the good old UPS Darrell
