Perry, The difference between a Dragonfly and Q 200 is that the original
Q 200 is the one with the main wheels at the ends of the canard. The
Dragonfly has
the Trike gear. Both are based on the same airframe. Unfortunately both
are a bit small for 13B's We need Diamond to produce the Midwest/Norton two
rotor!

Bill, just for the record.. and to furthure confuse the issue. The Dragon
fly Mrk I had the wheels at the tips of the Canard as well. Then out came
the Mrk II which had hoop style conventional gear. After that they followed
w/ the Mrk III which is the trike style gear you see today.

Just so its not so easy to tell between the two..  I think if there was one
of each, side by each like, I'd be able to tell... but not by just walking
up and looking at one or the other.
