I had the same problem, I first shimmed the left wheel out on the front (toe out), taxi tested, then shimmed the right wheel in. Ended up with the same toe in but the plane taxied straight and was

Larry Try reflexing the aelerons. With aelerons flush there is too much lift on the main. Touch the brakes and the tail lifts too easily and you could have a problem. (based on my Q , 1 POB) Peter

Where in Florida is this plane located? Would he be willing to fly to Sebastian (X26) so we could take a look and maybe put our guru in it for a taxi test.

Earnest, Do you know if he checked the toe in relative to the centerline of the fuselage or just relative to each other or the gear? Could it be possible the main gear is not mounted square in the

Is the tracking error the same on acceleration as on deceleration? Could it be that the thrust of the propeller is pulling the plane in the direction of error? Does the plane fly in a crab as

I got a call from Larry Covey a triq builder from Florida. He has been fighting with a problem for quite some time with his plane pulling to the left on the runway. It is bad enough that he has

I plan to do that; however, according to comments on X-Plane.org, the problem exists in X-Plane for all plane models under 2000 lbs T/O weight. The same problem happened with a KR2 model using X-Plane

Convert it to tricycle undercarriage? Sorry, could not resist... Check to see if your brakes are set on or off. John

That 1000-1100FPM rate is near sea level, and there would be a strong case for a CS prop for high altitude fields, which we often forget as we have none.. Peter _____ From:

Richard, You will get at least 1000FPM climb with a fixed prop. A CS prop will not give you a better max cruise speed I think the CS option is only justified if you need a better climb

The engine is the 80 HP (sorry for the earlier typo) turbo Revmaster 2100. We had a thought that, if available, a constant speed prop might make better use of the power, don't know if the group has

Sam, That SUCKS. Hope you find something good. Kevin

Sounds like a plan, Kevin. My employer is shipping 115 jobs to Mexico and I was elected to help them do it, so Sandy and I are down here for a working Thanksgiving. We're coming home

I downloaded a beautiful Q200 model for X-plane from somewhere. Unfortunately, on my system, it bounces around and pops, and then goes over nose first ending on its back. Starting in the air, it flies

Sammy, What are doing in Mexico???looking for a fast food job? Steve Ham

Thanks Sam, I need to get the spinner on first. I have the front bulkhead started, but would rather fly for now. Maybe take off the prop extension this winter, bring the parts home and make the

Glad to hear it, Kevin. Now that you have the prop statically balanced, you can get it dynamically balanced. Sam Hoskins Torreon, Mexico

Very, very cool, Kevin. You keep all us (quasi-builders) trying to create the time. Mark
