Have you verified from experience that the plane has a landing roll of under 500ft at gross or is that just a guess? What about takeoff at gross?

with such a long loading platform, how difficult is to get the weight and balance right?
@The-virg27 күн бұрын
The CG is really wide with the airfoils we use. It is actually pretty difficult to get it out of CG. As long as you use your head when loading the 1400 lbs into the airplane you won’t have any issues.

I have had my eyes on Bearhawk for a long time and have been so impressed. Useful load matters and the speed with that wing is a game changer. STOL, the icing on the cake. :)

@jacobchandler2083Ай бұрын
I bet you could fit something like a cd300 in that 5. Would be cool to see a (reasonably tested) diesel in a bush plane
@The-virgАй бұрын
Cd300 is a little heavy but I hope to have some options on the table soon
@jacobchandler2083Ай бұрын
@ i agree the cd is heavy for its output. But it the 5 being so large it could probably handle it. At that point its certainly sacrificing some landing potential. But i bet the fuel burn would be pretty decent and it might potentially be quieter in the cabin. I could see pros and cons to it.
@jacobchandler2083Ай бұрын
@ i also think there needs to be a bushplane home for a del120 lyc. But its weight makes that challenging. Honestly a ul520 would probably be a better all rounder in that hp range but a diesel bush plane sounds like a cool idea
@jacobchandler2083Ай бұрын
@ but in the cd300s hp segment it’s definitely not a hp/weight champ nor are any of the diesel options
