Really interested in an rv6 I found for sale by a local guy. Its gonna need a motor, but I was wondering what the actual takeoff and landing distances you guys are getting with either the 160hp and 180 hp engines.

What the other guys said. Mine has a FP prop and 160 hp and gets off the ground in under 500' unless it is fully loaded. Then it takes maybe 1,000'.
On a consistent basis, I land and turn off in 1500' with minimal braking. Landing distance is very dependent on pilot technique - 1,000' is consistently doable with practice and some brake use. 500' is doable at light weight if you're really proficient and with hard brake use.
