Sweet prop, good luck finding one. Here is a couple pics showing how the wing bolted on and a few other things.

Got the cub in "parade rest" after standing it to "attention" for thorough inspection. I know all that is required now to get this beauty back in the air. @acerc I noticed right off that the pick up sensor housing is the long nose style. Going to put a "short nose" on it.
Hopefully my new interior will look similar to the pics of the dynamic balsa kit.

When your done it will be even better than it was when I did it. Nice!!! On the pic up, make sure to check for the right polarity. Looking at those pics and seeing the muff I remembered that was a custom job by JTEC so as to fit in the cowl. Ahhhh, memories. It would warm my heart to see a video of your maiden....

You got it! No problem. Just going to have to wait a bit. I want to savor the time spent on it. And you were right about the Xoar Lance prop.
No 18x6 to be had right now but I did find an 18x6 Xoar Axial which will look good on her too.

Yep, that prop would look good also.
I did not pull another plane out of the shed today. The shop is too full to maneuver with anything else in it. This weekend I have got to get the toy trailer emptied and load the four ready planes in it. Maybe then I can get to the Eagle, get it finished, and then in the trailer.

There are a few poisonous snakes in my neck of the woods but most common I see on the property are King snakes, Water Mocks, Eastern Diamond Back Rattlers. Now at first I thought it was a small King snake (non poisonous) until it coiled up and started shaking the tip of its tail. Rattler noise could not be heard because it had not fully developed (juvenile) but sure enough it was there shaking a hundred times a second. It was no match for my salad tongs though:dancing-chicken:.
