Re: Q200 Trailering Question
Larry Severson
Not true. I have a trailer that caries the Q2 without removing the engine. I have been involved with the moving of 3 Q2s traveling up to 65MPH.

I wish! The tail is removable (with help from a skinny person inside with a wrench), however to fit sideways onto a trailer (Q1-style), the entire engine needs to be removed as well. If there is a wide-trailer alternative, I'd like to know about it. Yet another detail which reminds me of the joy of working on planes like the German Me-108 Taifun : put sawhorses under wings, pull lever to detach spring-loaded spar pins, get well-earned soda from the break room.

Does anyone routinely trailer a Q2 or Q200 to the airport? I do this with my Q1 and wonder if it would be practical with a Q200.

Re: Q200 Trailering Question
You didn't put nutplates on the shell screws? My Q200 tailcone is easily removable by 1 person in about 20 minutes. But this isn't something I want to do each time I fly! Agreed, not really trailerable altho for first flight I did trailer mine without the prop but with engine attached about 40 miles so it can be done. See:

No need to remove the engine if the fuz is tilted
nose down (tail lifted up) to be within legal width.

Re: Oshkosh
1 tip of the old prop was shredded in my incident. That's why I can't use it. I don't know the pitch, it's a 62 inch diameter, something I was working out with Craig. It definitely needs tweaking but I have too many other things going on too have tended to it properly this year. I wish I had my old prop on it, it probably would have worked just great.

Re: Oshkosh
So Sam, are you saying your not that enamored with your latest Catto prop. Why aren't you running the old one for this race?
Can Craig still adjust the prop with those new style leading edges? BTW, what is the pitch and diameter. I run a 60/72 and it is smooth and works real good. Jim P. N46JP Q200 Commuter

Re: Oshkosh
Good luck, Sam! Please keep it up at least until I can fly formation with you in my Tri-Q (not in a Winnebago or some other "RV" like Bruce). I guess I could do both with Jerry M. :)

Re: Jim is home!
This is such great news. Especially for Mary. We hope the recovery goes very well, fueled by the home environment. Thanks Sam K for keeping us up to date.

Re: Oshkosh
I think there's a pretty big Sprint class. Again, my prop has too much pitch or too mush diameter and I can only turn up to 2,800 RPM when I really need 3,000+ to get to my best speed. I should be doing somewhere around 210+ mph. At our recent Big Muddy I managed 204.83, while my main competitor Dave Adams in his Long-Eze was at 201.90. Maybe it also helped that I did have the home court advantage. I hope I can maintain that lead. Thanks for the encouragement. Sam
