Q2 PLANS ADDENDUM

Q2 Builder Tip Notices (Q2BT9) are intended to provide clarification,

guidance, improved construction methods, and helpful hints of a non-

mandatory nature. The builder, at his discretion may use or discard

any Q2BT. Most are a result of work accomplished at Quickie Aircraft

Corporation building a Q2 from the Q2 Construction Plans. Any

questions on a Q2BT notice should be referred to Quickie Aircraft

Corporation. Each Q2BT has a number and a publication date along with

a description of the builder tip.

1 July, 1981 Q2 CONSTRUCTION PLANS -

SECTION I: Some plan sets sent

out may have faint re-

production on parts of pages

9-8, 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 11-4,

14-2, and Appendix Sheet 4. We

intend to have those sections

reprinted within 30 days. We

will send the reprinted sheets

to any builder who reports

this problem.

Q2 Plans Change Notices (Q2PC9 & Q2PC10) are mandatory revisions to

the Q2 plans. Each Q2PC has a number and a publication date along

with a description of the change. All Q2PC notices should be

incorporated into the builder's set of Q2 Construction Plans

immediately upon receipt by the builder. Any questions on a Q2PC

notice should be referred to Quickie Aircraft Corp.

NUMBER DATE DESCRIPTION

Q2PC9 1 July, 1981 Q2 GROUND ANGLE OF ATTACK:

With the aircraft assembled

and WL15 level, and with the

aircraft on a reasonable level

floor, take a measurement

vertically between the floor

and the bottom of the

tailwheel. The nominal

measurement should be 27". A

range from 25" to 28.6" should

be Acceptable. This limitation

is to assist tailwheel first

landings and

three point takeoffs at

mid/forward c.g. Small change

can be effected by changing

the tailwheel diameter. It is

a good idea to delay mounting

the tailspring until the

aircraft is assembled, so that

the proper height can be

achieved.

Q2BT11

21 August,

1981 MASS BALANCING ELEVATORS. In

preparation for testing on

turbocharged Revmasters and

possible A-65 thru C-85

installations, we have further

explored the very high speed area

of the Q2 operating envelope. We

have found that mass balancing the

elevators improves the ride

qualities at high speed. Therefore,

we are supplying to all builders

the drawings and hardware to mass

balance all Q2 elevators, and

recommend this before first flight.

See pages...for details.

ELEVATOR MASS BALANCING

.....Locate the two Q2CSA11 arms and the molded lead weights.

.....These elevator mass balance arms can be retrofitted to the elevator

control system even after the canard has been mounted to the fuselage.

This will allow a closer clearance with the fuselage sides and maximize

the available legroom. If the mass balance arms are installed prior to

mounting the canard, careful measurements must be made to assure

clearance with the fuselage sides.

.....Begin by attaching a molded lead weight to each Q2CSA11 as shown.

.....Next, remove the two bolts holding CS20 in position, and slide it

outboard through the CS14 phenolic bearing until a Q2CSA11 arm can be

slid onto the tube with the lead weight projecting forward. Reinstall the

bolts holding CS20 in position.

.....Then remove the three bolts securing Q2CSA8 and slip it inboard

until the second Q2CSA11 arm can be slid on the outboard end inward with

the lead weight projecting forward. Reinstall the bolts holding Q2CSA8 in

place.

.....Locate the Elevator Rigging template and jig the elevator in the

full trailing edge up position. With the elevator in this position, each

Q2CSA11 should be almost resting on the canard upper surface just inboard

of the fuselage. Note the piece of felt called out as a bumper stop. The

Q2CSA11's are located as far outboard as practical so as not to interfere

with pilot or passenger legroom. Verify that when the elevator is rotated

to full trailing edge down position, that the arc of each Q2CSA11 clears

the fuselage and all other components.

.....Finally, return the elevator to the full trailing edge up position

with each Q2CSA11 resting almost on the canard, and drill in the one AN3-

12A bolt per side to attach the Q2CSA11's to Q2CSA8 and CS20.

.....Leave the CS13 pitch control arm unattached from Q2CSA8, and remove

the two AN4-11A bolts attaching the universal joint to Q2CSA8 and CS20.

Remove the universal joint so that each elevator can rotate independently

of the other. Make sure that you have lubricated all of the bearing and

hinge points to reduce the system friction to a minimum. It is desirable

for each elevator to balance at 0 degrees to 2 degrees trailing edge up

with all painting and finishing complete. Remove lead, as necessary from

the molded lead weight until that position is reached. Each elevator

should rotate freely about the hinge points when given a slight nudge.

Failure of this check means that the pivots are too tight and must be

adjusted for minimum friction.

.....Once the amount of lead weight on each elevator has been adjusted,

bolt the entire pitch control system together and check for friction,

excess play, and interferences.

Q2BT12 21 August, 1981 IMPROVED BRAKING EFFECTIVNESS. We

have determined that a single pull

brake handle modulating both main

gear brakes simultaneously is

superior in nearly all situations

to the standard toe brakes.

Materials and drawings are

available for retrofit for all

builders returning their unused

Q2BSW1's & two AN210-1A pullies to

QAC. Current kit shipments

incorporate this modification as

standard.

Development work continues on a

set of retrofittable hydraulic

disc brakes, which may be

available as early as October,

1981. Those builders not ready to

fly before then may wish to wait

and decide whether they wish to

retrofit that system instead.

SINGLE PULL BRAKE HANDLE INSTALLATION

.....This section replaces the original section on installing the Brake

Pedals (Q2BSW1's) and four inboard pulleys. In place of the individually

controlled toe brakes, a single pull handle has been incorporated on the

left side of the cockpit.

.....Begin by fabricating BS3 and BS5 from the 0.125" thick Aluminum and

BS4 from 1/4" plywood.

(see next page for drawing)

.....BS4

is mounted in position with flox and 2 BID tapes to the top of the fuel

tank near the left side console. Position the BS4 so that the handle

will be an easy and comfortable reach for the pilot and so it will not

interfere unnecessarily with pilot comfort.

.....Next, install the Brake Handle as shown in the sketch.

.....The Brake Equalizer is used to help proportion braking

effectiveness equally. The turnbuckle assembly on the left side must be

attached directly to BS5 because of the proximity of the cable to the

left elevator slot foam core. The turn buckle for the right side can be

mounted in the system outboard of the Canard shear web pulley.

The two BS3 Canard shear web pulley mounts shown on page 11-4 must be

modified in location for the proper angles.

The cable routing is from the BS5 Brake Equalizer around the two pulleys

on the canard shear web, and then outboard through the Elevator slot

foam cores as originally indicated.....

The turnbuckles are adjusted to provide equal braking on each wheel.
