Normal cruise
The maximum continuous cruising speed in level flight and calm weather conditions is
123 to 126 mph (107 to 110 kts). To achieve these airspeeds, a 75% power setting is
required, which results in an average fuel consumption of 4.8 to 5.5 gallons per hour.
Fuel consumption is variable, depending on external circumstances like temperature, air
pressure and payload of the aircraft.
The most effective economic cruise speed is at an indicated airspeed of 115 mph (100
kts). At this speed a fuel consumption of 4.2 gph or less will result, giving you a
maximum range up to five hours of flight time.
Once the aircraft is trimmed well, it will maintain its altitude and heading without doing
anycorrection to the control stick for extended periods. If required, the aircraft is capable
of achieving an airspeed up to 138 mph (120 kts) at full power setting. If doing so, it is
strongly recommended not to exceed the maximum continuous engine rpm for more than
five minutes (Please refer also to the latest engine operators manual).
Cruising in gusty conditions
When flying in gusty weather conditions the maximum permissible airspeed of 115 mph
(100 kts) should not be exceeded for safety reasons. The REMOS G-3 /600 offers very
stable flight characteristics even in heavy weather conditions, similar to that of a
Cessna 172.
