Feel like racing and being a test pilot again Terry?. . . Anyone? I have gotten several inquiries from a team building an electric Q1 to compete in the NASA Green Flight Challenge. I'll post one of

Thanks for the reply Charlie, It wets out OK and seems to not have any effect on the process. I believe we will use it.

I am hazarding a guess that for bulkhead corner tapes it will be just fine. Charlie

OK, Quick question for the group. We started cutting strips last night to secure the bulkheads in the lower part of the fuselage. The roll of BID that I received with the project has some very

Test a sample by wetting it out with epoxy. If it was wet the sizing that couples the bond between the epoxy and the glass may have been damaged. If it wets out easy it is probably ok, if there

We used to have an Eagle 150 at one of the flight schools here in Wichita.  I got checked out in it... A lot of fun! Sure beat the C-172 I was accostomed to flying.  Fighter-like feel for

Dan, I had the pleasure of demonstrating the Eagle 150 when it was introduced to the US market - a great college job! I don't have much information to add, other than to repeat what was in the ad. It

Hey have you guys seen this before? Eagle Aircraft 150B - Looks kinda like a Q2 but it's not experimental. http://tinyurl.com/4jqel7d Pretty cool. Not as fast as a Q2 though. :-) Cheers, Dan

I finally got to fly today. It's been since Nov 27th. The winter has been bad. It cleared off at home by about noon. The computer said the AWOS was calling 1 mile and 500'. Must be something wrong

Jimmy has surfaced!!! The question is "Did he see his shadow"? I couldn't resist.. :>)))) Kevin [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Not bloody likely in the UK, but over here the very first Q2 was completed, .built slab sided out of urethane foam like the Quickie and another guy actually built a slab fuselage but I never saw a

Hi John, The best thing to do is to take a look at the Light Aircraft Association website and look up the data sheets on Quickies in the engineering section. If I have time tomorrow I'll take a look

I see, well thats fine I just thought outside the box for a while, which I often do! I was thinking that with a higher lift ratio as the Q2 must have compared to the Q1 and an enhanced power plant I

John: The Quickie and the Q2 did share a very few factory provided welded mechanical parts in common (Aileron bellcrank (QCSA3), control stick(QCSA1), control stick mount (QCSA2), various elevator

The June 4th Big Muddy Air Race registration is now open. The race is running in southern Illinois, starting/stopping at Carbondale, KMDH. The course is about 160 nm and takes us along the USA's

John--------- The Q1 kit consists of a canopy some welded parts a pair of wheels and a bunch of foam and glass. The Q2 has most of he fuselage premade. Also alot of steel welded control parts some

Now, that was polite, Mike! Paul B. Quoting Mike D <q2pilot@...>:

All I can say is wow. Let me be as polite as I can possibly be. The two planes Q1 and Q2 are totally different. No you can't use any of the parts from a Q1 to build a Q2. Mike To:

Hi every body, I have been thinking about the Q1 kit which I have, its un-started as yet and after reading many articles on the various models I wondered if it is possible to use Q1 parts with Q2

Hello All I am putting the photo I am thinking of using on my new socket up for all to make suggestions on. Like or not like it Opinions welcome. Thanks Darrell
