Hi Tim
For your info the standard prop diameters for the Classic and XS are 62 inch and
64 inch respectively. The XS installation places the engine 1inch higher so
the ground clearance should be the same for both. The larger diameter should be
slightly more efficient as it reduces the blade angle nearer to the optimum
for the same power setting. I use a 64inch prop with my Classic on the basis that
if you get within 1inch of prop strike it is very likely that the aircraft
will continue pitching until the prop touches the ground anyway.
With warpdrive blades (Airmaster & NSI props) untapered blades are usually specified
with the 912S and 914 whereas tapered blades are better matched to the lower
power 912.
Regards
Nigel Charles

Can you confirm you are running a 65" prop
My permit says I've got a 62" warp drive on my Classic ( though I have never
measured it!!) and I wonder how the extra diameter affects things, is a
bigger prop standard with the XS ?

Yes but we are Three Europa in the Hangar and one trailer is sufficient
now.
Also my Trailer is old model strong and better than the new one.
I am builder N 145 (XS monowheel) and now I have 240 hours flying all
is ok. Next month I install woodcomp Constant speed propeller.

I think I bought the last trailer that David Scofield intends to make. He
has closed down his facility and moved into smaller premises. Still might
be worth a call to him.

Congratulations to Rutan and Mojave crew for the second successful launch and
landing of SpaceShipOne! They are the official winner of the X Prize. Well
done!
Typical of all things flying, they spent $20 million to win $10 million.
Why does it always work out that way when a motor and wings are involved in a
project?

Well. We have a Glider Wing Kit for Europa. Why not a Galactic Kit.
RATO assisted Europa.
SpaceShipOne also used a modified Dynon EFIS for back up attitude awareness.

Hi all you Europa crazies... Me Too!
I am close to ordering a Dynon for my bird but I have spoken with 2
people (RV Builders) that have talked to other people with supposedly
bad experience with it. I have heard that after left to right rolls the
unit does not like to right itself. Now I know how negative things can
spread so I am relying on all you experienced flyers using it to give
me the scoop first hand. How about it! Are there enough of you flying
with it to give a comment? Can anyone comment from experience.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Oops. Mistake. It's 64".
65" is allowed on the tri-gear, I understand. Although the taildragger has
loads more ground-prop clearance than the tri.
The smaller diameter prop should in theory be better for ultimate speed.
However, a bigger diameter prop provides better climb, which being the case
then enables more of a trade-off on coarsening the pitch without loss of
climb performance, which then helps with top end speed.

I have been flying with Dynon since they first were available. If you know
some one who can roll fast enough to get Dynon to tumble, I don't want to
ride with him. I doubt that you will see it ever tumble. It is not going
to keep up with acrobatic maneuvers, but who is looking at it then? It is
solid state and very easy on the power usage. Mine is the early model and is
heat sensitive. It flags me by turning black and white when it gets hot (95
F ) but it just keeps on working. (so did all the rest of my systems)

I agree, dont know why it always costs, but it does I always remember what
my pappy said to me " if it's got wings or an engine its gonna cost ya" or
at least i think that's what he said(I was drunk at the time)

Cliff,
Is the heat problem still evident with the newer Dynons? I can imagine me
trying to use it after my aircraft sat on the ramp at Benton Airport in Redding
in the summer. It might cool down to 95'F at night! I wonder if Dynon will be
at CopperState or Expo? I guess I could ask them if they are.

<<I use a 64inch prop with my Classic on the basis that if you get
within 1inch of prop strike it is very likely that the aircraft will
continue pitching until the prop touches the ground anyway.
>>
>I'm sure there's some logic here, but I need it explained to me!<
The point is that if you pitch far enough over during a ground loop (the
most common reason for prop strike) once you have gone far enough to
strike a 64 inch prop on a Classic the pitch angle and inertia is such
that it would have almost certainly continued the extra inch required to
strike a 62 inch prop. The only time I see the smaller diameter saving
the day is a strike over rough ground where the strike is not due to
loss of control. However this is not a very likely scenario. I measured
the prop ground clearances (a/c empty) to be 11 inches and 12 inches
respectively.
Although the above is just a theory and I have been lucky enough not to
have a prop strike so far, talking to those that have the impression is
that once the groundloop has started the pitch/roll manoeuvre continues
until the prop strikes.
