What kind of airspeeds are you getting in cruise?
thanks

a little over 2100 prop rpm.

Ken,
The Subaru is slow... 95MPH. It is also heavy. 1030# empty weight.

I had to speak up.
I'm surprised you are not getting higher cruise speeds with the 2.2.
I know we are talking about the 2.2 here, but for just for comparison sake,
I if run the EA-81 at 3700 rpm through a 2.2:1 reduction I am cruising at
around 85-90mph. I am a bit lighter at around 850-900# empty weight but the EA-
81 is probably only producing 60-70hp at this rpm and running effortlessly.
The other day it was smooth air and I was able to test higher power settings.
At 4400 engine rpm I was flying at a true 112mph. (GPS verified both
directions)I am now going to add some temporary fairings with some high speed
duct tape to see if adding fairings will gain me some more mph's.

More importantly, if you have made or are flying with homemade exhaust pipes,
make sure they do not allow any fumes into the cabin. I had a quick lesson on
CO poisoning at 4500 ft the other day. To be honest with you, it scared the
crap out me. I now put a swiss muffler on that exists behind the rear wheel
strut.

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Post by paco » Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:59 pm

I have actually had people look at my plane/engine combo and tell me it would
never work let alone be a decent performer. One fellow stopped in to look at
it this winter and he told my hanger partner not to let me try to fly my Rebel
with this engine. He said I would never make it off the ground. My buddy told
him that I had 80+ flights on it this way at which time this person figured we
were all full of it.

I'm not sure why there is such a wide range of cruise speeds for Rebels of
similar build? I can even tell you that both my wings are built by two
different people and one needs quite a large trim tab on it just to keep the
wings level. (you might spot this in the pictures) This in addition to the
slight up elevator possition during cruise must eat away at even more
airspeed? I have heard of a couple O-320's and a few O-235's that cruise at
80mph? I don't understand? The other thing my Rebel seems to do that no one
else's does is glide!!! I have to fly my circuits so low just to keep the
speed under the 80mph flap limit. The slightest push on the stick and I'm at
95+ in the blink of an eye. I don't seem to have the severe sink rate that
people have talked about. I can throttle back to 3000rpm @ 60mph and fly
comfortably for an hour (I've done it many times) If I keep pulling on the
stick it just points to the sky and slows down to what seems to be not moving
at all! The angle on the airspeed pitot is so great that the needle shows 0.

Same thing when I asked the group about wheel pants. Some reported 3-5 mph
gains while others reported 7mph losses. I have come to believe that every
Rebel might have its own unique flying characteristics especially when it
comes to cruise speeds.

Maybe FWF weight is very critical in the Rebel, and maybe I was lucky enough
to get it right on.

Anyway, sorry about blabbing on. I use a 72", 3-Blade Warp, straight blades
set at 18.5 degrees. Now this is another issue that I have been involved with
on the Sub list. Some people don't seem to be able to turn their props
(exactly the same as mine) with the turbo EA-81. Maybe my carb'd EA-81 is
putting out more than 90hp?, I don't know?

Regular spring gear, no pants.

Anyway If there are any dis-believers I will have to post some MPEGS on my
site this spring or you will have to fly to Sarnia some day.

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Post by Dick Kyro » Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:59 pm

Hi Frank,
The discussion of cruise speeds has always haunted me. I built an Avid Flyer
STOL wing the factory said it would cruise at 95 mph with a 582.
That airplane would NEVER see those kinds of speeds with that engine.
At any rate, My Rebel is what it is. I checked it with a GPS flying
4 directions. I have fat 800 tires, and bungies.
you certainly are getting great performance with the EA81. MAM shows an 80
MPH cruise with the 912, 105/w0235, and 120 with the 0320.

I am thinking about going to a lighter engine to improve my HP/weight
ratio. The Subaru is a helluva engine, but heavy.

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Post by Walter Klatt » Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:59 pm

Hi, Frank. Very interesting to hear about your great
performance out of that EA81. I would bet that 72" WD
has a lot to do with that. <g>

I do have a question about your c of g, though. I have
one of those Rebels with the high sink rate at 60 mph.
My c of g is at 9.7 which is a little nose heavy and am
wondering if that is doing it. Mine is also a little
heavy right now with the 0320 and amphibs, but I
remember that even back on wheels, it still had that
high sink rate at 60 with power off. So would be
interested in hearing your what c of g is.

Subject: Re: Subaru powered cruise speeds


I have actually had people look at my
plane/engine combo and tell me it would
never work let alone be a decent performer.
One fellow stopped in to look at
it this winter and he told my hanger partner
not to let me try to fly my Rebel
with this engine. He said I would never make
it off the ground. My buddy told
him that I had 80+ flights on it this way at
which time this person figured we
were all full of it.

I'm not sure why there is such a wide range
of cruise speeds for Rebels of
similar build? I can even tell you that both
my wings are built by two
different people and one needs quite a large
trim tab on it just to keep the
wings level. (you might spot this in the
pictures) This in addition to the
slight up elevator possition during cruise
must eat away at even more
airspeed? I have heard of a couple O-320's
and a few O-235's that cruise at
80mph? I don't understand? The other thing
my Rebel seems to do that no one
else's does is glide!!! I have to fly my
circuits so low just to keep the
speed under the 80mph flap limit. The
slightest push on the stick and I'm at
95+ in the blink of an eye. I don't seem to
have the severe sink rate that
people have talked about. I can throttle
back to 3000rpm @ 60mph and fly
comfortably for an hour (I've done it many
times) If I keep pulling on the
stick it just points to the sky and slows
down to what seems to be not moving
at all! The angle on the airspeed pitot is
so great that the needle shows 0.

Same thing when I asked the group about
wheel pants. Some reported 3-5 mph
gains while others reported 7mph losses. I
have come to believe that every
Rebel might have its own unique flying
characteristics especially when it
comes to cruise speeds.

Maybe FWF weight is very critical in the
Rebel, and maybe I was lucky enough
to get it right on.

Anyway, sorry about blabbing on. I use a
72", 3-Blade Warp, straight blades
set at 18.5 degrees. Now this is another
issue that I have been involved with
on the Sub list. Some people don't seem to
be able to turn their props
(exactly the same as mine) with the turbo
EA-81. Maybe my carb'd EA-81 is
putting out more than 90hp?, I don't know?

Regular spring gear, no pants.

Anyway If there are any dis-believers I will
have to post some MPEGS on my
site this spring or you will have to fly to
Sarnia some day.

Frank

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Hi Bob,
My bungies do have fairings over them. That's why I am so depressed!!

Hi Dick !

You're not doing so badly - I flew a similarly configured
Rebel, and saw about 110 mph at about 4,800 rpm - stock Legacy 2.2,
Ross Redrive, W-D prop...... and about 1,100 fpm climb.

My old O-235 powered Rebel never cruised much over 95 mph,
although I have flown 118 hp. O-235-L2C's that would give 110 easy .

One thought - if you have the standard gear, if you add
streamlined fairings to the legs, & inner (bungee) tubes, you can
pick up another 10 mph !! Steve Sloan has done a TERRIFIC job
of streamlining EVERYTHING on his Rebel, including the tailwheel,
and is getting at least 25 mph more cruise than most !!! There
are some photos of his 'Rebelee de Bebe' in the archives ....

......bobp

PS
I agree that a lighter engine will really help performance.
I still believe that a 100 hp Rotax 912-S would make a GREAT Rebel -
and one day, I might just try that combo on 1500 Amphibs !! ;-)

you certainly are getting great performance with the EA81. MAM shows an
80

I am thinking about going to a lighter engine to improve my HP/weight

I had to speak up.
I'm surprised you are not getting higher cruise speeds with the 2.2.
I know we are talking about the 2.2 here, but for just for
comparison
sake,
I if run the EA-81 at 3700 rpm through a 2.2:1 reduction I am cruising
at
around 85-90mph. I am a bit lighter at around 850-900# empty weight but
the
EA-
81 is probably only producing 60-70hp at this rpm and running
effortlessly.
The other day it was smooth air and I was able to test higher power
settings.
At 4400 engine rpm I was flying at a true 112mph. (GPS verified both
directions)I am now going to add some temporary fairings with some high
speed
duct tape to see if adding fairings will gain me some more mph's.

More importantly, if you have made or are flying with homemade exhaust
pipes,
make sure they do not allow any fumes into the cabin. I had a quick
lesson
on
CO poisoning at 4500 ft the other day. To be honest with you, it scared
the
crap out me. I now put a swiss muffler on that exists behind the rear

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Post by Dick Kyro » Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:59 pm

Hello again,
Would you know by chance what this person with the 2.2 had for a static RPM
with the Ross?? I am assuming he has the same drive and ratio as me. I do
not know what my pitch is, I set the prop at 4800 static.
I do know if I do not pull the nose up on take off, my rpm's go to over 5k
very quickly, so I pull back on the power. Perhaps I have it pitched too
fine.

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Walter,
I agree, I think I use that 72" WD prop like a helicopter uses the main
rotor.
If my memory serves me correct, I am only turning the prop at 1600-1700 rpm.

Now the CofG might be the reason for the lack of sink rate. When I matched the
EA-81 up to the firewall, I built the mount so the engine was a far back as I
could put it but still allow me to service the oil filter and belt. I then had
a 4 inch extension added to the gearbox so the prop would be where the 912
cowl needed it to be. I think I just lucked out.

My CofG with just me and 15 gals of fuel (which is like 5 hrs of flying) is
12.66. Add a passenger and it's 13.02
I always felt that I was a little nose heavy because I can't get the tail
wheel to touch first on landing if I tried. Even with full elevator which I
adjusted to give me more than the recommended up travel, the tail is about 4
inches of the ground at touch down.

Subaru powered cruise speeds

Post by Walter Klatt » Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:59 pm

My flying c o g is between 12 and 13 normally as well,
so I don't think that is it. Your low sink rate at 60
then is more likely just due to your lower weight. Mine
used to glide pretty good at 70 or 80, too, back when I
was on wheels. But if I needed to drop a little
altitude on final, all I had to do was slow it down
more, instead of slipping. This was with full flaps on
final.

As for getting that tail wheel down, I do believe a
nose heavy plane does make it more challenging, and I
had that problem, too.

Sounds like you have a good combo there with that
Subaru. Enjoy.

Walter

Walter,
I agree, I think I use that 72" WD prop
like a helicopter uses the main
rotor.
If my memory serves me correct, I am only
turning the prop at 1600-1700 rpm.

Now the CofG might be the reason for the
lack of sink rate. When I matched the
EA-81 up to the firewall, I built the mount
so the engine was a far back as I
could put it but still allow me to service
the oil filter and belt. I then had
a 4 inch extension added to the gearbox so
the prop would be where the 912
cowl needed it to be. I think I just lucked out.

My CofG with just me and 15 gals of fuel
(which is like 5 hrs of flying) is
12.66. Add a passenger and it's 13.02
I always felt that I was a little nose heavy
because I can't get the tail
wheel to touch first on landing if I tried.
Even with full elevator which I
adjusted to give me more than the
recommended up travel, the tail is about 4
inches of the ground at touch down.
