Secret Squirrel

I'm building an E-Racer, having a bit of trouble as well but working thru them. let me know if I can be of help. Mick

King Racer, Thank You so much! I just got off the phone with Dave @Berkut Engineering who can help me out with the gear. I'm so grateful for your help and the Canard zone. p.s. I'm naming my first born King Racer Mick

Jon, I can't tell you how grateful I am. My biggest fear was that I was going to have to scrap the project. Thanx again Mick

Jon, First let me say that your the best! I won't need them until maybe late October possibly November. Is that too soon? or as soon as you can part with them. I'll of course pay any costs incurred by shipping. My address: Mick Cowell 552 Cross Creek Ct. Chester, MD 21619 443-336-2099 Thank you so much Jon Mick

Hello All, Well as most of you know I'm building an E-Racer and trouble getting builder support from the designer as been a hoot. I just got an email from Tonya Rutan who stated that they do not offer the Long-Ez canard plans any longer. Does any body know where I can find those plans or even a template. Please help me someone. Mick

Erik, When I purchased my plans from Shirl the Roncz canard plans did not come with the plans to the E-Racer. They had to be purchased separately which obviously I hadn't done on a timely basis, since then Shirl has all but moved to Area 51 and has been unreachable. Burt Rutan has also closed shop which did offer the plans. I've been told that I can still purchase those from the gift shop. I guess I should do that before they close up too. Sam, Thank you again. I'll try that site again and see if this brings some light to the subject. Mick

I might be able to assist you in that endeavor. I too am building an E-Racer, support from Shirl Dickey has pretty much gone away. I'm stuck with an E-Racer that has no Roncz 1145 canard, and no retractable gear. I'm considering a different gear arraignment. Hope this in some way helped Mick

Thanx but the Infinity System will not fit the E-Racer, at least thats what the web site says. Are you building the E-Racer? Mick

Thanx Waiter, The Infinity Gear System says that it won't fit in an E-Racer Mick

Hey All, Does anyone have an idea of reinventing the main gear on an E-Racer, Since Shirl doesn't seem to have any further contact info I'm stuck without a main gear system. I'm thinking of some sort of spring steel reinforced with carbon fiber. Any ideas anyone? Mick

Yes, I'm currently building an E-Racer
