That's very interesting, thanks for sharing. Sam

Eugene, those look like nice parts. Did you use peel ply? I don't see any. It's very useful and explained in the education section of the plans. Sam

The mains are fine, the rudder is fine. For me, the root cause is speed control. These slick little birds want to go fast. My main challenge is speed management.

Please forgive me for mixing up knots & mph here, it’s just the way I roll. I generally use mph for airspeeds and knots for navigation and all that “official” stuff. It works for me. Yesterday, I took

Richard, I am hoping that someone will step up and format a full-size drawing that can be downloaded, maybe as a .dxf type file. Maybe you for instance? I think what needs to happen is to first get a

Terry, looking at the documentation from Larry, you'll see that the canard was designed for a tail dragger. He does explain reducing the plies on his spar for a Tri-Q. Here is the first page https://q

Larry Weishaar (RIP) and Jim Doyle developed an LS-1 canard which used carbon fiber tape instead of the QAC supplied round carbon fiber spars. I'm placing their build instructions, along with some cor
