Not a chance in hell, Rusty. The structure to hold an
engine at the front simply isnt there. It would be a VERY major redesign,
and would probably end up too heavy to fly. On top of the that, the weight and
balance would be all wrong. I think the best way to put 2 engines on an EZ would
be in pods on the strakes.
Now tell us what you
really think John :-)
Thanks to all who
commented. I knew it was a long shot, but thought I'd ask. At least
it saved me a lot of research. BTW, when you do a Google search for
Vari-ez, the top hit is Marko :-)
The bottom line of all
this, is that I'm looking for a test-bed for a single rotor engine. I'm
also considering a Dominator gyro, which I happen to have plans for. That
would really be the easiest project, though I'd have to finish learning how to
fly a gyro.
Rusty (stop me before I
come up with another wacky idea)
