I am done! A big thank you to Shaun Martin for the killer Cub plans. Thanks to all of the other Cub builders who have inspired ideas for my build.
I built it with Ross foam board. I have not maidened it yet. I think the last thing it needs is a carbon fiber spar. I think I can just sneak one through the channel in the wing.
The gear is off of an Apprentice that was "tree lunch". The tail wheel was pieced together with random stuff I had.
Power is a Emax GT2812/10 with a 11X5.5E APC prop. 40 amp Emax ESC. Emax digital, metal gear, 9g servos. Rx is an Orange Rx with stabilization.
I did not put in flaps but left some room to cut them in if need be. I don't suspect I'll need them.
The foam was Minwaxed and painted Cub Yellow??? with a spray can I found for $2.99. Glass and zig-zaggy stripe was done with black DT poster board.
I have to say that the plans are very well done. The construction is solid! I made the cowl and windshield from foamboard instead of poster board.
Lastly...don't look too close!
