  • this is stock ?. looks like you have marks stearable nose gear , lots of RPM's also .

  • All factory stock or factory add on kits for nose wheel and breaks. The 377 was swapped to 447 for high altitude and makes about what a 377 does at sea level.

    All takeoffs here are WOT at 6300 to 6500RPM.

  • Long roll out!! My Quicks never leave tracks for even 100' when there's snow!!

  • Density altitude 5000', how high are you? Normal roll 150' on pavement, 220' on grass. This was about 275' in 3" snow. This is a stock 1984 MX with 447 Rotax and 52X32 prop, gross weight at 550#.

  • hola muy buen video saludos desde aguaprieta sonora mexico yo tambien vuelo ultralight quicksilver sport hks 700 muy buen motor very good saludos

  • My field is 1740' so that alone makes a huge difference. Last year I was flying my stock 82 Mx with a rotax 377 and the some 3-blade fixed pitched 52" wood prop and leaving tracks only 14 paces with a light head wind. My dressed up pilot weight is around 220lbs. Again, the difference in altitude makes a wold of difference.

    Nice video!!

  • -----I saw you flying over Riverton today about 2 PM---Thanks for the post!!---Am going to try some day to get a video of your plane in flight
