A went through the Q1 and Q2 plans this past weekend. Nowhere in the plans
did I see mention of what weight glass they are using for the unidirectional
and bidirectional glass.

Dave for Your info. The Quickie and Q2 use a fiberglass build up spar as

You
will see from the plans. The Q-200 uses a carbon fiber spar.
Yes the Quickie canard (front wing) can be removed.

There is also this on ebay:

Basic question for the Quickie, do the wings disassemble? I'm also

looking
for techniques for attaching wings.

Thanks!

Take a look at the ruttan wings on a q-1 or q2 it will fit the

bill
for
what you want. There is one site on the web for free downloads of

the
q2
info but I do not have the URL at hand. Q1 plan can be had on C.D.

for
less
than $10 via EBay.

Can anyone suggest some home built construction sites where they

show
the
process of building a spar for a foam composite wing. I'm

confused
on
how
a
spar is built for a foam wing. It doesn't seem like the foam

itself
would
provide enough structure to provide a web. It would seem like

you'd
have
to cut the wing foil, cut out the location of the spar, build the

spar,
and
then reinstert that section back into the foam wing.

Thanks,
Dave
