Michael, thanks for that. I seem to remember Larry (R.I.P.) putting this together, what a monumental task! It's fine where it is, but I changed the title a bit, just to clarify what it is. Thank

FYI. It probably won't fit, but I have a "never mounted" Long-Ez landing gear, sitting in my basement. I bought it as a spare, several years ago from a guy who was parting out his Long-Ez

I’d start by buying Pazmany’s book on landing gears, which explains everything you need to know. It’s available from Aircraft Spruce. Bob

These folks make a Long-EZ Main gear. Maybe a place to start by contacting them. https://aerocad.com/landing-gear/84-main-landing-gear-strut.html Cheers, Jay

For what it is worth, the Long-Ez landing gear is made of unidirectional S-glass, from various vendors. The builder then has to wrap the gear with several layers of "BID" fiberglass/epoxy at a 45

I know it is slightly off topic but I feel like the knowledge base here is also quite deep so I hope it is okay to ask. I have been trying to have a production run of hoop gear made for the Dragonfly

In my ongoing attempts to archive materials provided with my build, I added a copy of Larry Koutz Quickie Information Database spanning 1983-1994 to the "Files" section of the group. The file is

Thanks Guys, I'll give that a try . Mike -- Mike Steinsland mikeskustoms@...

Those are cool ideas, and they work! Many thanks. Tomorrow I buy a bedsheet, some Scotch Guard and cord. Terry

He’s been having issues with that payment portal notifying him for years. He’s very active on another board and, when contacted there, he is very responsive and sends you a code to enter for a

Well isn't that just ducky. I paid for the dimensions and specs from The Canard Zone and am not able to download anything. If anyone has done it recently and had any success please let me

My canopy cover is a rainproof rain cover for a four season tent. I fold it in half to cover the canopy and then criss cross it underneath the plane and run straps out to the tie downs on the ramp.

Canopy cover... I keep a white bed sheet that's sprayed with scotch guard so it's water repellant. I tie one string to each sparrow strainer and one string around the tailcone and it's worked well

Not just covers (that too)...I ask about todays sources also because I am not sure I can save my canopy. The spray-lat has been on a long time and I am not confident that "goof-off" will work. The

If you can get a response from the Canard Zone store. Here are all of the hardware dimensions and specs: https://www.canardzone.com/store/product/7-q-200-metal-parts-drawings/ Cheers, Jay

Maybe build a set from existing parts stock? The early Cessna 140/150 pedals are light and have master cylinders very easy to repair or maintain. That was my plan anyway since I also have zero metal

Richard Kaszmarec knows the guy that took over building parts for the Quickies. He would probably be able to build rudder pedals with brakes incorporated. Or brake pedals that would fit over the

Hi. I now have Paul Spackman's Q200, at KLMO. The brake controls are now located right by the throttle, and I want to move these brakes controls to the rudder pedals. Looking through the plans I am

Hi Jerry, I have tie-downs anchors on the bottom of the canard wingtip. Construction details are shown below. Yesterday, while waiting for the oil to heat up, I built a small aluminum bracket that
