Re: Quickie Q1 - Canard
Eugen,
Additional to my last note, see page 10-5. The aft “elevator slot cores” are also removed along the line 33-F-G-H-I-32 for the remainder of the canard beyond the center section, but

Re: Quickie Q1 - Canard
I believe they have you wrap that with fiberglass sheet to create a spar and shear web.

Quickie Q1 - Canard
Hello Q-Groupe,
we are just about to cut the canard out of the foam. What is not clear to me at the moment is why the separation of the rear segments in the middle segment has to take place along line

Laminar flow separation bubble, VG’s disrupt this and are less drag than the separation bubble.

I had a few interesting conversations when I trailered the dismantled aircraft back to Oklahoma from Northern Alabama. A few of the curious at the benzine stations wanting to know about "that Cub" and

Re: New Group Member
Another interesting tuft test, vortilators vs regular, singular VG’s…
That’s a nice looking Maple Leaf, I may need something like that on my tail!

Re: New Group Member
Camera angles?...but I agree, Jay. Charlie you and Brent locations do look the same or close to the same chord line position. The vortex generators on Brents canard are from another supplier that I

Re: New Group Member
Looks like your along-the-chord placement is not too different from Brent’s. I think the two-sided ones, like on Brent’s canard are referred to as vortilators, but someone (Vern?) can correct me

Re: New Group Member
Ok my memory failed here is my VG’s in flight. Single alternating angles worked fine in light rain. Never sought out heavy rain to test that.
I like the small plastic ones

Re: New Group Member
Here’s my VG’s, they are definitely aft of the curvature peak. Judging by the tuft testing that Jay shared, I suspect they’d be in dirty air by the time I’m close to stall and not doing

Re: Revmaster cht
Interesting. I’ve checked and rechecked the sensors but I just didn’t think the numbers were believable, but maybe they’re accurate after all.
I spoke to a tech at MGL avionics this week and

Re: New Group Member
Vern,
I had VG’s root to tip. I tried to avoid them but got tired of moisture affects. They did not slow me down and do not add profile drag at 50% chord.
I have not flown the replacement canard and

Re: New Group Member
Charlie..do you have your generators root to tip? Chris..I too have the GU canard so I am questioning only in order to know the minimum limits.
Something the John Roncz said to me one day kinda stuck

I think 300 degree cht is very possible looking at the work that you did on the engine baffles. I see chts of 340 degrees..... I only monitor the #3 cylinder and I have the twisted cht probe
