  • See this airplane fly: • Flying the STOL CH 750...
    Jan shares info about his STOL CH 750 Super Duty, powered by his new 180-hp turbocharged Viking Honda engine.
    This airplane is the first completed CH 750 Super Duty (SD) assembled from a kit (in just two months from start to completion)!
    Sun 'n Fun 2018 fly-in and expo in Lakeland, Florida.
    The STOL CH 750 Super Duty is the latest model in the Zenith high-wing lineup. The resemblance between the STOL CH 750 Super Duty (SD) and the original STOL CH 750 light-sport aircraft is obvious, but the Super Duty offers increased useful load, the addition of a jump seat in the big rear cabin area, and more powerful engine choices for maximum short take-off and landing (STOL) capability. The design features fixed wing leading-edge slats, full-length flaperons (for excellent control at slow flight), big tires for off-airport operations, and effective rudder and elevator to allow for slow flight operations. The roomy cabin provides easy access from both sides and amazing visibility from the wrap-around windows and bubble doors.

      Ya but, this build shouts, look at me, me, ME, whoopy Dee!! VERY VERY POOR Choice of engine. Those tiny 4cyl engines use HUGE amounts of fuel, at high rpm and under turbo boost. For spinning a Propeller, you NEED an engine that produces a lots of torque at very low rpm, and sips fuel while doing it. Oh!,,, and inline 4cy are vibrators, unless fitted with balance shafts that rob engine of power, while adding weight and complexity. VTEC Yo !!!

      Machines and Things the slots, I call them slots because they are fixed in place and not movable or I would have said slats have plastic tips on each end those would have been painted then riveted on as powdercoating plastic don't work, I built a dozen or so airplanes for icp in Canada and we used to use an epoxy based paint that was awesome, you could paint a piece of alum. And score it with an exacto knife and bend the piece of alum. And try and pick the paint off and you couldn't. I still think polishing is the best less weight = faster and higher roc

    • @zenithac
      @zenithac  6 років тому +2

      "Rough undeveloped terrain" is quite relative. The effective elevator control means you can mostly keep the nosewheel off the ground. Additionally, we like the better forward visibility of the tricycle gear configuration, better steering and ground handling, and ease of getting in and out of the plane. The reality is that most modern pilots simply don't have taildragger experience or access to training, and pay higher insurance rates for taildragger coverage.

      It was designed and built like a car engine of their time. They would have purchased one if it met their goals AND an auto company would have sold them one.
      "There were many automobile manufacturers who could have met their specifications, but since the brothers were asking for only one engine to be produced, it was not profitable for the larger companies."

No shit Sherlock! Any engine can be reliable if you do maintenance on it. My crap Chinese engines for motorizing bicycles can run great for thousands of miles if you do maintenance on them. By the way, how the hell do you get offended by innocent comments anyway? Where in my original comment say anything about "I know everything about engines" or " Honda engines or terrible"? It was a simple comment. It wasn't even classified as funny and I know that. Some peoples kids man. They never shut the fuck up.
