    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    Thanks guys. The RCGF engine barely fits in the cowl because the cowling tapers inward as it goes aft. (I think that makes sense).. so you kinda have to put it on at an angle while gently squeezing it oblong while messing around with the exhaust pipes. note that the cowling sits aft a little...

    Most Excellent! I led a worship band for a couple years and then kinda got burnt out when my pianist left town :( With some musicians it just clicks, and it's been hard finding a replacement that has their heart set on the same style and worship. So I played (acoustic guitar and vocals) by...

    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    Here's what all the onboard electronics look like when installed. Note that I had to move the throttle servo to the left side for this engine. A little Tail Dragger RC swag.

    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    Like I mentioned before, not much detail here. But you get the idea. It was reviewed in Model Airplane News as a GRIZZLY ha ha. Probably because of the amount of aluminum parts they made for this cub... like the welded gear legs, aluminum struts and wing tube. makes this birdy a little heavier...

    Looks like we are switching it up a bit. New site is looking pretty sweet... I miss the pretty orange. Like @Bipenut said, it'll take a bit to get used to but so far I am impressed! Thanks for the e-mail @3dmike to let us know what was going on ha ha.

    Nice build, I was wondering when someone would do a review on this airframe! Are the tail feathers airfoiled on this little beast?

    DLE-30 Dies When Inverted

    Maybe instead of the metal arm, use a fiber/plastic arm to help absorb the vibration as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oracover Bordeaux Red

    Could you paint it instead? Just cover it with white, and buy an acrylic lacquer in a rattle can, paint it Bordeaux red, and put a blue monokote strip on it? Just a thought/idea if you get in a pinch.

    Been gone on a work trip thing last week... Looks like I get two weeks of rain in the forecast... Hmmmm the H9 15cc Carbon cub is just waiting for its first engine run and a maiden. And the building up the confidence to fly the laser again after my brief brownout... Couldn't seem to duplicate...
