In Oshkosh I was asked several questions I did not have answers for with me. I told everyone I would answer Questions on my Blog, so here we are.

Briggs and Stratton Vanguard 23, BSV23 prop sizes. The Warp drive was a 60″, The Culver wood prop was a 60 x 27.

Briggs and Stratton Vanguard 35, BSV35 prop size was the Warp Drive 66″

The Verner 3V uses a Warp Drive 66″

The Tail post tail wheel spring is from McMaster Carr and is a part # 9620K31, 2.5″ long, 1.031 od, .781 id. 56.34 max load, spring rate of 95 lbs per inch.

We will be in the Ultralight Area near the Red Barn. Should be another Legal Eagle also.

Saturday morning flight from T25 to Echo Lake private airstrip with circle and return. Legal Eagle XL ORV powered with the Verner 3V performed flawlessly as expected. Average speed was approximately 45 mph with fuel burn of 2.2 gallons per hour.

Beautiful evening, not a bump in site and very clear. The Verner 3V 3 cylinder radial took us into the air with ease and LEXL ORV and I enjoyed just looking at everything we could see in the distance and below. Great way to get above earth and join the birds.

I was talking to Leonard the other day and he mentioned a great way to keep the glue from sticking to the rib building fixture. Mark out where the gluing will take place on the board and then cover these areas with 2″ wide clear package ceiling tape. The glue does not stick to this tape. I have not tried this process yet but will so do in near future.
