I noticed today on the Zenith Screen Saver there were a pair of 701's shown that have a Fixed Canard Wing near the front of the cowling.
Having experienced the difference a couple of small Canard Wings has made on a local 182, gentler handling during stalls and better low landing speed handling, I wonder if any of that would apply to the 701 as well.

Has anyone on the list had any experience with this concept in the 701? If so what was learned about handling changes if any?

Those 182's probably had the Peterson Performance parts, or were sold as "Wrens"

The total package is sold today "turn-key" style as the Peterson Katmai.

With the Peterson mods, those canards are movable.
