Looking at Google Earth and using their measuring app, it looks like 130'. The bigger the prop, the shorter the T/O roll. My apologies for the ad, it was not my idea, pays me nothing and is annoying. Anytime I want to look at KZitem, I use DuckDuckGo to bypass the ad.

Just curious have you ever flown without the wing gap seal? I just got a twinstar mark 2 and haven’t flown it yet but it did not come with the wing gap seals and I’m worried this may be an issue if so do you think I could fabricate my own somehow?

It is not a good idea to omit the gap seal, and it is not hard to build one. Send me an email address and I'll send you the plans for the gap seal.

@@IchibanoldpoopI went ahead and decided to fly it for the first time I’m wondering do you find that the ailerons surfaces feel kind of sloppy and unresponsive? I mean they work but it’s no where’s near as snappy as I would’ve expect it to be feels rather dangerous almost

@@danko1764 That is most unusual. Typically the Kolb has light elevators, normal rudder and heavy ailerons because there is a lot of aileron throw. I even reduced the amount of movement on my MKIII ailerons just to lighten the aileron feel a bit. You do have the gap seal on, right?

@@Ichibanoldpoop wing gap seal or aileron gap seal? Because I’ve got neither I bought the plane without a wing gap seal mainly though.

@@danko1764 You need the wing gap seal. I would consider the airplane unairworthy without one. That is why your ailerons are unresponsive. A number of years ago a friend of mine was flying his Firestar, it had a fabric gap seal that came loose on takeoff and he just barely managed to get it down in one piece and he was an excellent pilot. I have the full plans for the fuselage gap seal, I cannot post them on line because they are copyrighted, but I can send them to you, and you can make it in a day or two with some thin aluminum sheet and some lightweight aluminum angle from Home Depot.
