Renee, What diameter and pitch prop do you have? What rpm for 165 mph? Ryan wrote: very hard pressed to do 176 mph over a 200 mile course. This is with my basically stock Q2 and slightly modified

Rene, my TriQ200 (C-85 powered) has updraft cooling on it and I was told that it is a very effective method of cooling, but the biggest problem with it was doing the general maintenance, because the

Sorry I do not. Jim company. They were at Chino.Tks Raoul 2100DQ However; Revmasters

Hi Jim. do you by any chance know what's happened to Square one company. They were at Chino.Tks Raoul --- logistics_engineering@... wrote: From: "Jim Patillo" <logistics_engineering@...> To:

To Mike, Jon, Jim and all intrested in this concept If you look closely at what is going on here, you will note that when Paul designs a prop for one application, be it a biplane racer at Reno, or

I agree Jon, I cruise at an easy 150 mph and can manage 165 mph, but would be very hard pressed to do 176 mph over a 200 mile course. This is with my basically stock Q2 and slightly modified

Ya, I've seen that same "literature"! :-)        Sadly, the majority (all?) stock Q2's are 140-150mph airplanes, maybe slightly more for the clean ones.  Take a peak at the past performance

Hi Jon: The QAC factory plane would allegedly do 180 mph at sea level -- Take that with a large grain of salt. However, I suspect anyone who really cleaned up the airflow under the cowl could see

Yesterday I was quoted $4K by Vari-Prop. That is complete with Paul Lipps blades. Sam -- Sam Hoskins www.MistakeProofing.Net www.MistakeProofing.net/blog/ 618-967-0016 ph. 312-212-4086

How about approaching this from a different way. Us Q200 types could pay Paul for the design of the prop and then have several of em made (if we could figure out how to make them) I'd be interested in

Hmm, that is heavy.  However; I have implemented a very slick approach to this problem that has worked perfectly for me.  Each time I add weight to my plane, I simply increase my body mass by the

Jon, John I looked at it but to heavy for a Q200. 22 lbs I think is what he said. Jim P could beat that speed (or even come within 10mph of that).  However; if it is done, I would LOVE to see a

Hi Mike,   I would be absolutely shocked if a Q2 with a stock Revmaster 2100DQ could beat that speed (or even come within 10mph of that).  However; if it is done, I would LOVE to see a VERY

I'm curious how three aircraft can finish a 422 mile race with a difference in elapsed times of only 21 seconds? Larry Hamm Jim Patillo wrote:

Anyone thought about flying a Q2 in this event next year? The new class "Sprint-Sportsman" is for VW/Corvair powered aircraft. This year only one entrant, a Sonarai, flew ~176 mph. Bet there are

Sam, You're probably still in Oshkosh havin'fun. If "22" goes any faster you'll probably rip her wings off. I bet we'll see you give it a try in the next couple of years! There are still a few tricks

Sam, Good job! You improved your average speed up to 205 mph. It appears your engine still has some poop. Now, if we can find some sauce.... Looking forward to your account.

Very impressive result Sam; congratulations! Will look forward to reading about "your version" in a forthcoming copy of the newsletter. Gord Givens Q 200 Builder Ottawa Canada _____
