Just a little note to tell you all that my Sig 1/4 scale CUB flew its maiden flight this morning at the Arnprior r/c Club. It flew remarkably well with no bad habits what so ever. I want to take this minute to thank every one that helped me in what ever way with your suggestions comments and ideas whenever i came across a question regarding either the plane or the weed-eather conversion engine.
THANK YOU R/C Canada and all you who helped me!!!

Hope you're winter projects all come out flying as nice as mine...

What would you like to know?

It's a sig 1/4 scale 105 inches span, covered in cub yellow monoquote powered by a 23cc weed eater gas engine (converted) and flown with hightech electronics using 5 servos and one for the drop bomb bay door.

it swings a 16 6 prop at 7600 rpm.

slow passes at about 10 to 15 miles per hour and high pass at something close to 60 if i'm lucky

very gentle plane to fly...

Zenoah engine?

Drop bomb bay door .. cool. What will you drop out of it? Parachute dude?

[jessy]

YEP!!!

for the moment i dorp badminton birdies. 4 at a time, very slow descent.

but for our funfly i will have a big 36 inches parachute i am puting together now, something cheap in case the wind decide to take it for a ride.

ALWAYS wanted to drop parachute from my planes, also later i will work on some kind of camera box to take aerial pictures, then post them on our club's web site. I love r/c ing.
