I have met with Corbin and he is doing this all in the right fashion. He's been cautious when there has been issues with the aircraft, he is a very current pilot, he has had the aircraft repositioned

Thanks David. Do you mean beyond the training I’ve already done with my instructor that received the Q200 training from the builder? What’s your recommendation? Corbin

Corbin, I worry for your safety. You seem much too cavalier in your approach to this task. Please let an experienced Q driver do your taxi testing and initial test flights. At the least, wear a

Great...thanks! I consider high speed 10 mph under rotation speed so I think we are good there. Much appreciated! Corbin

I agree, be very careful with power changes at high speed. It can get away from you really quickly. If you've got 7000 feet plan on using it all. I wouldn't plan for anything faster than 60-65 MPH

LOC - Loss Of Control

Thanks guys! Just so I am sure, what is LOC? Also, the low to medium to high speed taxi work is what is recommended in the POH I have seen. If these are no longer the preferred methods I would love

Rapid reduction in power at high speed definitely invites LOC. Slow reduction in power invites the possibility of going off the end of the runway. Moderate speed taxi with slow acceleration and

Corbin, I see in your latest video you are planning some high speed taxi tests and crow hops. Both of those will increase your odds of an accident with very little benefit IMHO. Adverse yaw is also a

Hi Jon, I have a Sterba 60"x68" for my standard compression O-200 that I have been using for about 25 years. I hope that helps. Paul Fisher Q-200 N17PF

The Prince caught my eye a while ago and I haven’t heard anything bad about them (except for their large RC aircraft props!) I expect I’ll be able to go with a no-frills prop initially from a

Most common prop on the 0-200 among the Q200 crowd seems to be the Catto 2-blade. Catto has built a number of them, and as far as I know owners are happy with them. Those with them can comment on

Hello everyone, I am making a renewed push this year to get Earnest Martin’s TriQ-200 N479E back in the air. I bought it from the 2nd owner after a main landing gear collapse. It had a

I agree with Sam. I've never landed on grass and I don't intend to ever do so. One small gopher hole could ruin your whole day. I also use the standard Lamb tires. Paul Fisher Q-200, N17PF ~1650

Sorry, I should have provided some more information. I do not land on rough fields or grass. You're going to be taking off and landing at roughly 70 miles an hour. Sometimes more. I just don't have

Great to know someone has tried them Sam! What kind of landing weights have you gone up to? Can you give a description of how practical they are on unpaved runways (mostly thinking dirt and gravel,

Those are the tires I use. Sometimes called lamb tires. I inflate them to 50 psi.

After rebuilding the stock hydraulic brake system in my Q200 last year and finding a lot of problems that will eventually require replacement of wheels, calipers, axles and mounting structure, I've

I like your new ride Charlie. I bet it has plenty of pep. Stop in Fruita or Grand Junction, if you get a chance this summer. Cheers, Jay
