Rotate and takeoff at 80 mph with reflex full up ~ 1/2 inch. With reflex flat, rotation occurs at around 100. John

Thanks John, That is much more illustrative. I think there is a 50-50 chance of it being drag related. Certainly that is a part of the effect and nose gear leg and wheel fairing will help relieve it,

Jay, I'm in the middle of a 10 day shift at work and my plane is in another state. I can't get pictures until I'm off work. Option 2 looks to be the closest. Cutting the throttle seems to have little

Gary, You have a lot of flight experience with the aerodynamics of the Q. I would very much like to hear your opinions on the aerodynamic study that I have just completed, and whether the results

John, I am back home now, so I would like to help diagnose what is happening. First, I need some more info. Tuck means different things to different people. Can you tell us, when you say tuck, do you

 John, you say that you have a reflexer, have youexperimented with it during fast cruise to try and trim out thetuck? I am having trouble receiving some of my emails soif you have answered this

John, Please do not cut anything yet. You need to fully diagnose this problem before you fix it. You could make things worse. I am traveling this weekend without my computer, so can't do much. Please

Bruce, The strainers lift down pulling the elevator down causing the canard to rise. Try a little up reflexer to reduce lift on the rear wing. Regards, Charlie

John: If it did not nose tuck before with the Revmaster, and it now does with the Q200, other than reflexor (which has similar corrective pitch effect as the T-tail elevator), sparrow strainer angle,

Phil, I forgot to mention, I do have reflex and use it for elevator trim. Reflex is up at low speeds ~ 1/2" for landing and takeoff. 130 mph, it's flat. As you go beyond 130 the reflex has to go up

You did not mention if you are reflexor equipped.

John: About that 0 degrees incidence you are reporting - please measure twice (or five times plus) before you cut! Make sure you are not getting some type of measurement error. I did not hear you

Gentlemen, Thanks for the input. I guess I knew the right answer before I asked the question but was hoping there was something I was overlooking - t-tail or something else. Are there any tricks to

It sounds one you want the elevator to deflect down more. Be careful loading the sparrow strainer more. I lost the left one in flight and there was enough slop in my dual stick linkage that it

Bite the bullet.Do what already works (incidence). Dont try to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear... or re-engineer.

Gotcha. Thx

We are planning on the FOD. It's too far for Key West on this trip segment. We are currently in the Michigan's U. P. Sorry for any confusion. Sam Sent via wireless gizmo. On Aug 21, 2015 5:54 PM,
