Hi Guys,
About 12 months ago i purchased plans for the PDQ2 ultralight .The plans are very simple and straightforward,
I have been obsessed with this aircraft ever since i saw this photo.
My flying experience is limited to C172/150 and piper cherokee etc.The hight thrust line on this aircraft does not bother me as every aircraft has its quirks.My main concern is something that i have read about called pendulum effect i.e when in a tight bank/roll the aircraft wants to flip onto its back.
Is this true?does anybody here have any experience with pylon mounted engines like amphibious planes etc to confirm this.Should i proceed with the build?did i make a mistake?
I would appreciate any advice.
oh forgot to add that my actually name is Matt,My acct name is because of my wife.
