I would disagree with the post. The load should dictate the breaker size and the wire size, you also need to take into account wether or not it is going to be in a tight bundle of wires. Bob

Chris: A Q1, or Q2, or any other plane for that matter, doesn't know a dam bit what engine is in it, the pilot does. It's how that pilot operates, and maintains, that engine, that affects the

Find an electronics surplus store. I did my entire panel with 22 ga tefzel coated wire, I bought a 1000 ft roll for about $40.00. Tefzel is a trade name for teflon. Almost all certified and other

The choice of wire size depends on usage. The more current, the larger the wire size. Current load is determined solely by the breaker which protects the wire, not by the needs of the load it is

Cameron, You can look at the on-line electronics parts suppliers like DigiKey, Allelectronics, Mouser. Check the specs on the wire to see if they offer something you want to use. I buy electronics

Rich You've apparently done a tremendous amount of detailed investigation in support of using a 2 stroke engine on a Q. I'm puzzled as to why the debate is ongoing when you're already convinced.

Hi All, Some time ago, I did some airflow modeling on the tandem wing configuration of the Q-2 (LS1 canard and Eppler 1212 main wing). I have posted a diagram on Q-list group site that shows two

I've heard about 22-24 AWG wire for wiring panels, does anyone have a preferrence/spec/supplier? Can I get away with 24, or should I use 22? I'm looking around at Aircraft Spruce, but wondering if

Larry: Out of 750+ Ultralight/Kitplane manufactures, per Kitplane Magazine in the last 30+ years, very few of them have used anything but a 2 stroke. But all them 750+ manufactures could be

I use the Dynon AOA. The greatest benefit I have experienced is using the proper final approach AOA, which translates into the proper speed for a particular fuel/baggage load and associated CG. If

Bob, AOA can be a valuable instrument, particularly in situations that you need to fly a conventional airplane onto a carrier deck or in a forest clearing in the back country. They also come in

Oh, I do see that I misread Bob's main wing comment. Yes, lets not stall the main wing. That would be very bad. I suppose an electronic AOA could be set to go red near the main wing stall point...

Nope, never stalled that, the plane won't let me stall the rear wing, thank goodness! Mike Sent from my Windows Phone ________________________________ Sent: 4/3/2012 7:22 PM To:

Mike, I don't think you are stalling the main wing all the time. LJ French Short & simple from my mobile

Let me take a shot at Bob's question. First it's got nothing to do with Plenums so I changed the subject line to AOA. Bob wrote: I am looking at electronic instruments to replace the 30 year

Thanks Jerry but my question remains. One of the recommended changes for the DF from Justin Mace is to move it from knee-high, canard to the rudder. Then I saw the AOL reporting, down-hanging pitot

Q-Listers, I purchased a used Dynon EFIS recently, and it came with a boom mounted pitot (new, never mounted). I need the L-Shaped Pitot for my next airplane, so this one is for sale. For those that

Bob, and all of you other folks. For those of you who have the Dynon EFIS systems and want to utilize the built-in AOA capabilities, I am developing an adapter that allows the use of your present

Wow, $1500 for the one with a 1 degree precision... I got a lower $ for toy ratio. I think the cheaper one has too poor of a resolution to be of any help. I don't see the value of this. Mike
