  2. Welcome. Interesting path and plan Ryan. What engine is in your Long EZ? What can a Rotax do on 2-3 GPH?
  3. Have you joined this group? https://dragonflylist.groups.io/ I'm sure there are other builders/flyers in AZ. I think there will be a project relocating to AZ soon. Regarding the Mk1 or Mk2 question, are there sockets in the bottom surface of the wing? Does the wing have the standard amount of anhedral? Answering these should answer Mk1 vs. Mk2, but you can make it anything you want. Hoop gear is also an option.
  4. What about DB-1001? Makes the manufacturer seem like a much bigger deal. 😁
  5. Very nice work! Tell me about the need for two "helicopter skids". Especially if you create a rotisserie through the main spine. Seems to me that one strong back or, "heli skid" could come directly down from the bottom of the formers which would allow for more/easier planking. One of the most effective ways to maintain parallelism between formers would be equal length "sticks" (20mm x 20mm x ? pine) screwed between formers near the outer edges.
  6. Total thickness 0.42" Skin thickness 0.03" Another interesting detail, the foam seems to be perforated (0.03" hole) on a 1" grid. Maybe to add mechanical bite and/or bridge the inner and outer skins.
  7. Nice work! What program are you using? What tool/feature are you using to assure that the planks come from flat stock with 3/8-1/2" thickness? After examining a set of factory shells, it seems like the majority of each shell (4 shells total) was made from a single continuous sheet of foam which has many relief cuts to allow for wrapping, warping, and bending as it was pushed down into the female mold. Not sure if this strategy would be easier that what you have planned, but from the CAD and printing templates perspective, they both seem nearly equal.
  8. Good question. I have the same/similar question for a 406/121.5 MHZ ELT antenna. Seems silly to mount an expensive whip or blade antenna inside the fuselage/tail. I have the Archer Sport com antenna.

  10. There is always plenty of atmosphere to replace the leaked air. I wonder how much pressure drop before the gauge would be required to create one heck of a leak and noticeable gauge error?
  11. Hello Gary, There has to be 5 threads on this question, this year alone. Be patient and Jon will get the download link to you. I thought there was supposed to be a download button on the webpage when your payment was confirmed or in the confirmation email. Go back and look thoroughly at those. Otherwise send Jon a message and he will get a link to you.

  13. https://q-list.groups.io/g/main/topics GU canard profile on Q2, LS1 on Q200. LS1 needs the tapered carbon spars, which is the killer because they aren't available. Have to find an old kit. People have used Dragonfly canard construction on newer Q200 builds I think. Tap test everywhere on the canard for delamination. Lots of mods documented on Q-list. Gross should be 1100#
