I'm in the same "boat". My airplane was built for someone taller than I. I wish something was adjustable to accommodate different height pilots. Easy in my 172. The seat slides forward.

While I am keeping my rudder pedal tubes and add toe brakes on the left, I needed to move the mounting points aft ... my plane was built for someone much taller than me :-) So now I get to decide ...

The Waddelow is meant for only TriQs. Bruce

Can u believe that score? CHIEF!!

In the Q-list files there are the plans for the Weishauer carbon fiber LS1 canard. This canard was built and successfully taxied. After a ground loop or two on the runway, which has everything to do

Go Illini! 😉

The Waddelow canard was designed only for flight loads for the Tri-Q2, but I think that the Wieshar (sp?) was designed as a hand laid-up version of the LS1 that will work for the tail dragger. Someone

Mike, We have a local guy who has a rather large bee farm. His bees feed on clover and produces some of the best honey money can buy. My wife swears by it. Honey is allot cheaper at Walmart though.

The LS1 can be made with out the pre made carbon spars. I think " Wadllow" had designed a layup schedule and you may also consider using a modified Dragonfly schedule  that uses a fiberglass C spar

Way cool Keith, thanks for sharing and giving us all a reminder of the small farmer’s contribution to the economy. Has Bill Gates tried to buy you out yet? 😉 The best that I have done in

A little...lot...off subject but thought y'all like to see where some of yur food comes from. That's white corn being loaded which will be used in in anything that's white and goes crunch. Tortilla

Several Q2’s have been built using the GU canard. Originally, the GU was replaced primarily due to the limitations caused by surface contamination reducing lift in rain, and also due to QAC

As I recall, the Q200 used the LS-1 canard which required pre-made carbon spars that were only available from Quickie Aircraft. Some suggested reading can be found in the March 1984 issue of Sport

Looks like Johannes is in Spain. Wondering what the limitations on home built aircraft are in Spain. Is that where you intend to build, Johannes? Cheers, Jay

Johannes------------  One other thing--------  I think Eugene is in Germany and he is building a Q1 from scratch.  He may be helpful in sourcing stuff. Hopefully he will chime in------------

Johannes------------  Check out the original Q1 and the Dragonfly. They can be built from plans alone without pre made parts. Use the Q200 plans and copy their  procedure. I think someone had built

What kind of primer is common on fiberglass planes? Epoxy? Urethane?

Nothing yet, thinking I'll put primer down but won't paint until after Phase 1. What am I dreaming of? Pearl white paint with a blue shimmer 😀 -- Robert "TheFrisco" Schmid (408)

Robert, what have you picked out for primer and paint? Troy Z

Hi Bob I posted the photos earlier in the thread Let me know if they did not come through and I'll send them to you Mike
