Jon Matcho Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 I found this recently, a Defiant-like canard but much smaller. It looks about the size of a Cozy III, but with a larger canard and with only two 50hp engines. http://www.eulair.fr/en/ Quote Jon Matcho Builder & Canard Zone Admin Now: Rebuilding Quickie Tri-Q200 N479E Next: Resume building a Cozy Mark IV
Voidhawk9 Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 Under 500kg MTOW. Very light. The mid-span fence on the winglet is interesting. Quote Aerocanard (modified) SN:ACPB-0226 (Chapter 😎 Flight simulator (X-plane) flight model master: X-Aerodynamics (GMT+12)
Jon Matcho Posted July 4, 2019 Author Posted July 4, 2019 Interesting plane indeed. Lighter than a Cozy, slightly wider cabin, but doesn't look like much storage (?) and a relatively slow canard. For some that's actually a better setup than the fast approach speeds and long runways canards typically require. I wonder why they taxi on the grass in their video using the rear engine with the forward engine off? I would think they'd want to do it the other way around.
