I have an Electro-air ignition. Jeff Rose is the guy to talk to. Chattanooga, TN 423 622-8825. It works very well. Bruce Crain ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE P

Hey if you guys are suddenly pulling on the stick at Vne you may be asking for something catastrophic in the near future. It's a tough aircraft but the sudden onset of full back on the stick is a mist

I stand corrected Pat and Al. You guys were scaring me. I do remember a performance evaluation in Ottawa where I was indicating around 200 mph and turning at that mph was a little frightening to me. B

ANR headset. I had the chance to fly with an Active Noise Reduction headset today. The 1st time I flew the tower was unable to read my transmissions by the end of the flight. My hanger mate suggested

Hi Earnest, Actually my new brake pads worked very well right out of the box. It was after I braked hard at a high rate of speed that the system went a little limp. I flew yesterday and today and wait

Thanks Tom, I will try to use both of my hanger mates ANR head sets some time soon to see if what he said has any warrant. Maybe I can find someone with a different brand of headset to see if there ar

James, I think I bought my mirror at Walmart. Look for it in the baby section. It attaches to the sun visor or mirror etc. It has a large allegator clip that I attach to the panel. It also swivels so

Try some 9.9 to 1 compression ratio pistons from Klaus Savier. Also try an electronic ignition on one side while retaining the other mag. MT adjustable prop would be nice...now were spending money. If

Tom, One of the Dragon Fly guys is running a GPU Continental with an Electronic fuel injection that he built. I believe it is Mark Snowden...maybe? Looked very interesting and he was really sharp at e

Somebody get in touch with Mark. He is a highly technical individual. Light years ahead of me on the subject. He is getting great fuel burn (wasn't it 4 gals/ hr?) There was some speculation that Klau

If you use denatured alcohol to thin the "dry micro" for finishing, the foam will not erode. My 2 cents worth. Bruce Crain On Wed, 6 Dec 2000 12:26:46 -0600 "Jon Finley" <finley@...> writes:

Jon, I bought my aluminum hinges from T. J. Wright R D 5 Bx 214C Somerset, PA 15501 Ph 814-445-3802 (Advance Composite Technologies). That was 5 yrs ago and I'm not sure if he is still in that locatio

Ditto Jim, This years Oshkosh weather picture was some of the worst I've ever flown in. If not for the Navaid Wingleveler my copilot and I would be "singin' in the Heavenly choir"!! Bruce Crain ______

I put my mag the same as the electronic. 26 degrees btdc. Klaus' electronic ignition is different from mine though. Mine is the Electro air from Jeff Rose. Bruce Crain On Sun, 31 Dec 2000 12:31:52 -05

You're working with an unknown until after your 1st flight. The elevator is very much controlled by the effectiveness of the sparrow strainer. If the strainer is not effective enough the elevator will

Because there is a point where the elevator is up and the reflexor (ailerons) are up that the Q becomes very pitch sensitive. Almost to the point of being out of control. If your strainers are not eff

After you tweek your sparrow strainers so that it is neutral in divergence for pitch stability you can turn loose the friction lock. It should let you fly the Q straight and level in cruise without an

Tom, If you haven't already talked to Klaus you might give him a call. There was some disagreement between Klaus and Jeff Rose on timing. You might give Bob Malecek a call. He's using Klaus' ignition.

Hi Neil, The Q1 may be different than the Q200. One of the Q1 pilots might be able to answer the sparrow strainer question better than I. I still believe that if you have fore or aft loading of the st

Hi Jon, I don't notice any different stick forces (fore or aft) in slow flight or cruise. When my strainers were not working correctly the slow flight didn't show much stick pressure. The faster I fle
