Just found this old topic....anyone know where the .zip file now resides that's linked in the first post?

Jeff

Possible the easiest way for you might be RAFE.  Rutan Aircraft Flying Experience is in Houston and Tennessee.  They have a  Speed Canard they use for canard training.  See https://www.rutanaircraftflyingexperience.org/canard-flight-academ

Jon - What's your preference?  These are big files and I have slow internet here, so I only want to upload them once.

Jeff

I've got pretty clear PDFs of Vari-Eze Section I, IIA, IIC, III and VI.  Plus the owners manual.  Not sure where I downloaded these from.

I can post them here - how do I do that?

Jeff

How about pulling in content from the now apparently defunct Canard Aviation and Canard Community Forums.

Saw a recent post by Kent Ashton in another forum about improving the Long EZ side stick by using the Cozy method.  Can anyone provide any information on why the Cozy stick is better that the Long EZ's and what the Cozy configuration looks like?

Thanks,

Jeff

Yeah.  What did you buy? Let's see picts.

Daniel-

Where did you find the open EZ 3D model?

Jeff

Geep-

How's you're progress going on the CAD model?  Be interested to see how far you've progressed.

Jeff

Here's a PDF of the Landing Light plans...Don't remember where I got them.

Welcome aboard.  Note the Berkut isn't sold anymore.  Remaining kits are hard to come by and go for quite a bit of money.

Jeff

Interesting video (although he talks way too much and could get the point across much quicker).  Be interested to hear how your rework goes. 

I know you EZ's not complete yet, but how about posting a .stp or similar CAD file format for other CAD users to use as a starting point in their build?

Jeff

This is looking good!

Nice looking bird!  What are the two antennas mounted on either side of the fuselage at the back of the strakes?

Jeff

Canard Pusher newsletters were put out by Rutan Aircraft Factory to keep builders updated of changes to the plans and safety updates.  You need to download the PDFs, which can be also be found at http://www.aryjglantz.com/p/documents.html?m=0

Jeff

Jon-  bringing up this old topic.  Where can I find the link in your first post of this thread?  I get an error when I access the link.

Thanks,

Jeff

Can you give me the name/phone number of the regional sales guy your talking to?

Did you hear anything back from this supplier?

The offer bulk discounts?  I'm gearing up to start a Long EZ soon too and I'll need the same stuff.

Jeff

I'm hoping the digital version of the CSA newletters will contain photos that are clearer to view than the printed copies.

Not that many are building Long EZ's anymore, but I wish someone would rescan the old Canard Pusher newsletters at a better resolution.   I'm working from the low resolution digital versions posted on the web and many of the photos in the newsletters are nearly worthless.

Jeff

Jason-

Post some photos of what you've got going.

A Bruce-

Interested in the work you did on both the front and rear seats for comfort/usability as described.  Have any photos you can post and more details?

Nice!  Wish other engine manufacturers were so accommodating!

Jeff

Justin-

Did you model the motor or is one available online somewhere?
