DemonFrog Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Would weight an balance allow for an engine like the rotax 914 UL in a Q2(00)? i'm really starting to like these planes and was thinking a single place Q2 and more fuel. hopefully rotax will be around for a while, add a constant speed prop and i think i would have one heck of a fun plane. thanks for any replies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Matcho Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I always say that there's nothing wrong with replying to a post from the distant past, so here we go. I think the Rotax 912 and 914 engines would work well in a Q2 airframe. I was considering converting my Tri-Q200 project to a Rotax, but these engines are not cheap. Since 2008 Rotax has established itself in the LSA market, and I noticed that most of the CS prop manufacturers favor Rotax at the 100 HP range over direct-drive Continental or Lycoming engines.
