Hello fellow Kitfoxers!
Looking to see if there is anyone out there that has any experience landing
a Model 5 with the flaperons in the second (full) flap notch setting.

I have a 5 and vary between full and one notch. My experience with the stock
elevator and not having the interconnect mod, is that the stick forces are
fairly high and I have to use a lot of effort to get the tailwheel down fir
st or in a three point.
hope this helps

The fuse is to protect the wire, not the generator.

| Subject: | Kitfox 5 Landing with Flaps |
Steve,
Thanks for the reply, not sure I am familiar with the interconnect mod?
To date I have only landed with the first notch of flap and would like
to start working with the second or full, my hesitation is that I feel I
may run out of elevator. What are you using for an approach speed for
each position?

Lloyd ,
I'm using 65-70 downwind, 62 base, 60 final and 52 over the fence with touch
down at about 43. I do have vg's (STOL Speed) and my plane with full flaps r
efuses to stall it mushes at 38 indicated with 500fpm
Check the KitFox catalog you'll find there is a retrofit mod that is suppose
d to reduce the stick forces when using full laps. I've gotten used to my 5 a
nd just have to remember to pull the stick all the way to my gut to three po
int it.;-)
