I've started a Long EZ from scratch a few years ago and then acquired a flying one (and loving it) and subsequently stopped building the EZ. However, I still need to be building something! I've been looking into building a quickie because it looks (relatively) fast and fun to build. I have the construction plans and have read them a couple timIes now. It is not a plane I have a mission for, I just want to build something all the way through. Having gone through a Rutan project before, I know how important it is to read the newsletters, which I have not been able to get a hold of for the quickie. Couple notes and questions for the community below:
1. Does anyone have a source for the quickie newsletters & templates? (I payed for the package on this site, but haven't recieved anything!)
2. Is the LS canard mod worth it for a local fly-around toy?
3. I've seen a report for a 50hp Rotax mod, which I intend to use unless anyone here has a better suggestion.
4. There's a number of prefab parts that were supplied with the kits (canopy, flight control bits, tailwheel assembly), many of which I'm planning on making myself if necessary. But again, if anyone may know of components for sale I would be happy to buy.
Thanks for reading
