Formally, these speeds are defined by the designer/engineer of the specific airplane. FAA FAR regulations 23.1505, 23.335, and 23.251 are the formal definitions. These are an excellent starting point

Hi Jeff I hope I'm not too late answering this. I weigh 175, give or take, and I notice a difference when I have a passenger. My empty weight is 603 and I list my gross at 1100. With the Revmaster at

Thanks you for you responses.

Mike: When the Q1/Q2s came out, they used like a 18-22hp Onan, and a 65hp VW, toestablish max speeds, with those HP. I have never really understood whatestablishs these max speeds. Later Q1/Q2s have

I have a Dragonfly with tricycle gear and a Corvair engine. I know I can run a larger prop than the 52" one I have now as I have 38" from the prop center to the ground. My question is, what are

To be clear Jeff, I originally set a gross weight of 1320 lbs for N46JP and have flown my plane that way many times over the years. Yes I have a few dimples in the right side of the canard like Sam

As I get older I have started to examine the things wehumans say and do more closely. “He is a nice guy” or “He is a fine fellow” What do thosestatements mean, exactly? What does “nice” or

Thanks Sam. I hadn’t seen it. There is also this: http://www.ntsb.gov/AviationQuery/brief.aspx?ev_id=20111006X21257&key=1 which includes a probably cause. Still sad. - Paul

Go to Quickheads and get the W&B. I load to 1,200 lbs, but that can induce dimples in the upper surface.

Having flown the Tri-Q2 Revmaster 2100 for 300 hours, I would not dream of taking two 250lb'ers (assuming you can both get into it). I don't know what density altitudes you see where

A sad memory. Jerry was a fine person. J On 3/25/2014 10:27 PM, Sam Hoskins wrote:

So two 250lb guys can fit in? Going to be a tight fit. I think one danger is the canard stress in a hard landing or taxiing and hit a bump. The canard sees the equivalent of 4Gs when sitting in

Can someone help shed some light on this question? How heavy can a Q-2 fly with the LS-1 wing? I have heard 1100 gross, but has anyone gone over that? How much over? Is the quickie like many other

Does any one have much experience with propellers trials on the q-2 with the revmaster 2100? I ordered a props inc 56 x 42, in Mahogany. Does that sound like a good choice?

Don't know if this has been bandied about on the Q-list. Sorry if you have already seen this. http://www.ntsb.gov/aviationquery/brief2.aspx?ev_id=20111006X21257&ntsbno=CEN12FA010&akey=1

A couple of years ago I participated in a group purchase of a custom made cover for the Q2-200. I was very satisfied with the product. You can contact them at this address: Abby Flightline
