Steven and Tara... I note the same orientation Bob mentions in cruise flight, but no loss of speed. I note that on final, I can REALLY slow down and allow it to float instead of flying it hot over the numbers... before I was approaching at 76-80 mph and flairing at 60-65 with touch at 55 or so... NOW, I'm over the numbers at 70, slowing to 55 for flair, and touching down about 45 with the engine idling... IF I were to do a MAX engine hang upstairs, I can get the stall down to about 40-42 mph. It would stall at 52 prior to the StolSpeed Feathers.
NO, I don't work for the company!

Most excellent on the CH601HD. Best $100 option ever sold. I have Stolspeed on my CH601HD with Rotax 912. Very dramatic improvement in the land flair / float and eliminates the "plunk" of the nose wheel when the mains touch down. Lower nose on horizon attitude in cruise...no real difference in cruise airspeed.
