 |
|
Removed my Slats today and installed VG's on my 701SP on Czech 1200's with 912s warp drive prop. First tests show 7 mph more speed at same RPM 5500 rpm 85 w/slats 92 w/vgs. (GPS speed 2 way run done 3 times) Trim no change.... More stall tests tomorrow. But first impression was very little change in stall speeds power off .....no brake. Power on good warning with buffet...clean brake...no wing fall off. I have a set of slat's for sale! No change to prop pitch yet and did not remove brackets....yet! No down side that I can see on a Amphib. More later.
I'm grinning from ear to ear!!! Tom in Florida

Tom
Out of curiosity, what did you get in cruise when on wheels? I'd assume the 7mph improvement might hold there as well, right?
Thanks, Josh
