Very beautiful Quickie! Nice job! I first saw these in the ‘80’s as a kid at Oshkosh and fell in love. I always wanted to build one...with a Long-EZ sharing the hanger ;-)

[@MikeToomey]

Me too. I've been obsessed with Rutan canard designs since 1993. I've finished 3 long els, one quickie, and now flying a cozy 3. They are all great designs. My channel has separate playlists for the cozy & long ez if you're interested.Thanks for your nice comments!

[@buzzypeterson1147]

A friend crashed a Q1 into a forest. He survived. Took a bit to get back to walking though. Be careful. His mistake was adding dual ignition. All the airport guys made him paranoid that he needed it. But the modifications weighed it down and weren’t wise. A good rule is don’t mess with what works.

[@rsn2012]

Most plane engine failures occur within 10 hours of service or inspection. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Oldest advice in the book.

Q1 is the most fun for the least amount of money!

[@MikeToomey]

The plane is called a Quickie or Q1, designed by Burt Rutan in the early 80, kits produced by Quickie Aircraft Corp (QAC). It has a 2 cylinder Oman 20 hp engine which burned about 1.5 gallons per hour. Top speed is 115 mph.

[@desertblbuesman]

Can the Quickie Glide power off? Ive heard an outrageous rumor from a pilot who says they are basically a death trap without power. that CANT be right. This is all supposedly based on a fatal crash at Woodsfield Ohio many year ago of one.

[@MikeToomey]

@@williamleadbetter9686 yes, it will glide power off very well. Watch the approach to landing in my videos. These were done with engine at idle. It has a better glide ratio than any other powered airplane I know of.

HAHA GOOD POINT.

[@MikeToomey]

Probably good advice. This plane crashed after I sold it, due to exhaust pipe failure which stopped the engine. It ended upside down in a corn field and luckily the new owner wasn't injured, but might have head injuries if the corn had not cushioned his impact with the ground. There wasn't much of a roll over structure. Otherwise it's a pretty safe design.

It’s docile once you get to know it’s landing temperament. The tailwheel has very little authority, so good rudder control is important to keep it straight on landing. Otherwise, it’s very stable and easy to fly.

[@fortresstheband]

Cessna 150 wake turbulence would roll that thing.

[@MikeToomey]

I think you are correct, but a King Air wake could probably roll a 150, so it's all relative. Not many planes out there for us budget minded pilots and the Quickie flies at 85 mph on 1.2 gah of auto fuel. I don't know any cheaper way to travel.

Thank You. Let me know if you have any ideas for a new video. I'm thinking about a video of images from the building and modifications of the Q1.

[@___Chris___]

I see a normal tail rudder, but no rudder pedals (0:35); does the rudder have a fixed link with aileron input? Therefore no side-slip capability? And tail-wheel steering.. how is it controlled? Everything via single stick?

[@MikeToomey]

The rudder pedals pivot from above and are not easily seen in the video. The rudder is conventional. Motorcycle brake levers are mounted on the rudder pedals to provide (minimally effective) differential braking.

I'm still a student pilot, but I'm hoping to get my endorsement right after I finish my license, I already have a little bit of TW time.

[@chrisdaniel1339]

Hi Mike, Did you build this Quickie yourself? It is too bad the pitch on the prop is not a degree or two increased to bring down the rpm of the engine just a little bit. It does make quite a bit of noise. Burt Rutan designed some amazing aircraft, this is one of my favorites. The French Cri Cri is pretty amazing as well, especially the one where they replaced the the twin single piston engines with two AMT Netherlands model aircraft turbine engines

[@MikeToomey]

I bought it as a project and finished it. More pitch on the prop would reduce power and climb rate which are already minimally acceptable. The noise isn’t bad with noise cancelling headphones. Loved the quickie. Would have been perfect with a little more power.

[@chrisdaniel1339]

@@MikeToomey What about finding an old Rotax and having it rebuilt. Rotax 277 at 26 hp, Rotax 377 at 35 hp, Rotax 477 at 41.6 hp, or the Rotax 503 at 50 hp. A 503 would be great for a short ground roll takeoff and a good climb out and then be able to throttle back to 50% or less for a nice cruise. Hirth in Germany also makes small 2 stroke aircraft engines. Another option is use a micro turboprop from the RC plane world. The link below is a Pilatus PC21 model weighing 143 lbs (the same weight of a quickie) and it has a Jetcat turboprop engine and a 5 blade propeller. It has a super short ground roll and the climb rate is sick, even with the added weight of a pilot your quickie would probably really move. It is amazing and would be very smooth as everything rotates the same direction. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnXFnpJ8ZbGNodUsi=HUQQ4k-rgPYnvcBB Jet Cri Cri kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3mpaK2GnNSqZ8ksi=fbDrr0qng113_j6W

@@MikeToomey it's odd that the Q200 versions can't go much faster than 300km/h when the Q2 does close to 200 with 20hp. Maybe the wings are designed for too much lift for high speed flight.

[@MikeToomey]

Dan Frederiksen both Q200 and Q1 are nearly the most efficient airframes ever designed. They both routinely won the CAFE flight efficiency competition races in the 1980s. I don’t know the km/hr conversion, but a Q200 can cruise at almost 200 mph and the Q1 max is 115 mph. That is better fuel economy than most hybrid cars.... and a lot more fun!

@@MikeToomey yeah it's amazing with 20HP but only 193mph at 2000 feet with 100HP. Little over 50% more speed for 5x the power. I'm guessing the wing is too thick for speed. It would need thinner wings for the 100horse

Algumas perguntas Ele vem montado ou desmontado ? Quanto custa ? Aonde compra? Tem manual de instruções?

[@pedroarthur3744]

O cara do video vendeu por 7500 dólares em 2017. Em 2018, o novo dono bateu com o avião. Ele está bem, mas o avião tomou danos significativos.

[@pedroarthur3744]

E de acordo com o cara do canal, o avião não veio pronto, ele mesmo construiu

[@MikeToomey]

O Quickie foi produzido como um kit desmontado para construção em casa. Os kits não são produzidos desde meados da década de 1980, mas às vezes você encontra projetos parcialmente concluídos à venda no Barnstormers.com. O preço médio é de aproximadamente US $ 7.000 para um projeto concluído, ou muito menos para um parcialmente concluído. Por favor, veja meus vídeos do Long Ez e Cozy 3 no meu canal. Obrigado por assistir e comentar.

Ma la curvatura é un effetto ottico del vetro?

[@MikeToomey]

La curvatura è probabilmente l'effetto "Occhio di pesce" della videocamera gopro. Per favore guarda il mio video di Long Ez & Cozy 3. Penso che ti piaceranno di più. Grazie

Here unknown the onan 20hp ... what is the weight of it? Very Very nice model , its made of you from plans or you buy a kit of it?

[@MikeToomey]

Empty weight of the plane was 300 lbs. It was a kit plane produced in the 1980s. No longer made, but you can find incomplete projects on Barnstormers.com on occasion. Thanks for your comment.

Wish I could do it 🙋‍♀️🇮🇪

[@captainkttyhwk]

No run up? Looks like they taxi fast...or just the video makes it look like it?

[@MikeToomey]

Single ignition, so no run-up. It will taxi slow, it just looks fast so close to the ground.

[@UnwrappingByMimiKoteng]

Amazing

[@pandvsims]

It looks like a flying coffin!

[@daddo2]

Low altitude, low airspeed, high power climb over populated shopping mall? Maybe a little different climb platform would be safer.

[@MikeToomey]

No good options straight ahead. 20 hp doesn’t allow any better climb. An early turn over the shopping mall keeps me close to the runway and within glide distance to the nearest bean field in case of power failure. Got a better idea?

[@JohnBaleshiski]

No run-up?

[@MikeToomey]

Only one ignition source, so run-up is a carb heat check during taxi.

[@Rundumsfliegen]

How in the World does the engine fit in there? I mean You can clearly See the feet of the Pilot and the end of the Nose. There ist really much space

[@MikeToomey]

It’s a very small 2 cylinder Onan 20 hp engine that fits just forward of my feet. You can seen the seam of the upper cowl... that’s where the firewall separates the engine from the cockpit. The engine flywheel actually protrudes aft into the cockpit, but is shrouded by a 13 “ pie pan (yes, the kind you use to cook pie)😳

[@felipepontes4074]

Motor de chevete?

[@MikeToomey]

Pas de moteur Chevete. C'est un moteur de tondeuse à gazon Onan. Deux cylindres et 20 chevaux. À peine assez de puissance pour décoller, mais très économique en vol de croisière. S'il vous plaît voir mes autres vidéos de conception similaire, mais beaucoup plus rapide. Merci d'avoir regardé.

[@jonclarke9929]

How long does it take to get to pattern altitude? I saw one years ago, so so small in person. lol

[@MikeToomey]

Average climb was 400 fpm, but I had the wrong prop on first flight and only got around 50 fpm. Watch first flight video by searching "n83mt". I think it was 4 laps around pattern to get 1000' agl.

what kind of plane is that

[@MikeToomey]

Quickie Q1 Experimental kit plane (homebuilt).

[@bigbadjohn8207]

Dig the insight! How many miles on it?

[@MikeToomey]

The Insight had around 160k miles when I sold it. I had 2 of them and they saved me a ton in gas money. They averaged over 50 mpg. The quickie was even more fuel efficient at 64 mpg.

[@bigbadjohn8207]

The quickie does look awesome. I got a ride along in a long ez. That’s about as close as I’ll ever get lol

[@dmitryc6532]

With R 503 it would really come alive.

[@MikeToomey]

There have been a couple fly with a Rotax 503, but I’ve heard the 2 stroke engine doesn’t do well, except in a narrow rpm range, which complicates power management during landing. The Q1 also lands at relatively high speed which increases risk with a less reliable 2 stroke engine. I have to admit, the 2 stroke power is impressive and definitely cures the sluggish climb.

[@dmitryc6532]

@@MikeToomey the reliability concerns has been addressed about 15 years ago. These rotax engines that rotax churns out are bullet proof. I have a friend with 1200 trouble free hours on rotax 582. I have 643 hours on rotax 503. If used with rotax muffler it's a very responsive engine throughout the entire range. But to each their own they say. :-) neat airplane!

[@MikeToomey]

Dmitry C you have 643 hours more than I have with a Rotax, so Your opinion is based on actual first hand experience. My opinion was just based on speculation and internet stories. Maybe if battery technology makes another leap forward we can all fly electric for quiet and powerful reliability. I think the Q1 would be a good airframe for electric power. Thanks for your comments.

[@andreshernandez4074]

hi im new to aviation I will get mi certificate in a year and a half where can I buy a kit for my garage that is as cheap as this one

[@MikeToomey]

Andres Hernandez If you are patient, partially completed projects are occasionally advertised on Barnstormers.com and Facebook. I’d recommend you join the Quickie Q1, Q2, Q200 Group on Facebook. You can also post a “wanted” ad on barnstormers for free. Good luck!
