Roger What engine are you using?
Tks,'Craig Do not add any length forward of the spar. With the heavier engine, my cg is more forward than typical. I can load items in the cargo, and have no worries about aft CG. The fuse is about 4 inches wider and the widest point is at the aft spar. Plenty of room for hips and shoulders. At 2500 rpm, it cruises at 160+ mph. On happier days, 167 mph. I flew a box pattern at 3500, 7500, and 12500 to get the GPS speeds for averaging. I have not flown enough trips to find the best speed/range, but 2450 rpm seems to be where it ends up. My plane is heavy at 865 lbs. The one piece wing and engine being the major contributors to the heft. The wing design allowed for adding flaps. The airport I now fly out of has a 2600' runway, and the flaps do help. The flight controls are light and quick, with no unwanted tendencies at stall. > > Roger _______________________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at https://www.mail-archive.com/krnet@list.krnet.org/.
