I thought you suggested I didnt need an elevator trim ? :-0 On 17/03/2020 17:21, Jay Scheevel wrote:

Come to think of it, didn't the Wadelow canard work by making the air flow backwards on the bottom of the airfoil and then wrap around the nose to flow over the top surface a second time?? :-)

Sorry Bruce... I just saw this. It's hard to see from the photo - are the tufts on the canard also stalled?? Jon

Couple new videos for ya'll. My poor production skills remain but the flying is so very much fun!!! https://youtu.be/Bcho2YTkNnk https://youtu.be/-abd2JIlxeY Jon

Thanks David! I almost knew that I would hear from you first. 😊 I take your quick response to be a compliment…of sorts. I was limited with respect to space, so the compler-kation factor went up

Jay, I’m laughing out loud as I’m writing this: Did you previously design suspension systems for the BMW motorcar company? That’s the most compler-kated way I could imagine to do that — and

Hi All, Did a little “social distancing” on Sunday to test my newly installed elevator pitch trim system in flight. I have limited vertical clearance under my oversized header tank, so

Its Rudi Brandenburger sorry. https://mycontrol.aero/public/aircraft-types/QIC2

Hi Bruce, There is an Ex Swissair engineer in Switzerland who did that. His name is Rudy Brandenberg. I've lost his details. Not sure his has flown yet. Try tracking him down for info. Regards Gary

Have acquired a Rotax 912 ul 80 HP. Are there any motor mount or cowl mods information. Will put in a Q2. Thanks Bruce

I tried 2-3 of the ferrites and, unfortunately, it didn't make a difference at all. Corbin -- Corbin N33QR

Thanks Jay, it reminded me I have some clip on ferrites I can try on my lines to get the buzz sorted. :-) RichT On 12/03/2020 18:29, Jay Scheevel wrote:

That is why I plotted climb rate vs. density altitude. I have an EFIS that gives me a constant readout of density altitude. Cheers, Jay

Service ceiling also needs to factor the density altitude(DA). Standard pressure/temperature is needed. At 14K this is 9F. If a -20F cold day (we are winter now) then you will climb higher. Not

Hi All, Found this outfit that makes materials and provides insight for RF noise reduction. Have a look if you are having problems that might need to be addressed.

That's not your service ceiling, it is your absolute ceiling. The service ceiling is just over 14,000 feet where you are still climbing at 100 fpm (the definition of service ceiling).

No Jerry. I am putting in pressurization to 20 psi! 😊 Cheers, Jay

Excellent. Next purchase a space suit?

Hi All, I think I have enough flights to establish my DA service ceiling (16000’) at “average” operating weights. I have yet to push my GW to the max of 1200 lb., but will get there

My typical race speed has been around 212 mph.
