She only weighs 1.6g but flies pretty well as long as there's absolutely no wind! John Koptonak inspired me to put one together, here's his video • Build and Fly a Model ... and here's a link to the plan on Outerzone: outerzone.co.uk/plan_details....

Ha, just for a brief interlude while the glue sets on my latest rubber-powered model, tell me what you think, cheers 🙂👍

I'm honored Cliff! Great fun. The plastic bag plastic is a great idea. Especially for early dewy mornings. HA HA. Thanks for all the kind words. This is the type of project I like once in a while to bring me back to reality. Glad to see your success.

Interesting Cliff, it has all the genes to be scaled up for RC with a weight shifting gondola.....

Even more fun if you can access the second floor at work. Great way to have a little extra fun during lunch when the weather outside isn't cooperating. 😊

Another excellent model! That slow flying is really great. Maybe something to put together on a rainy lonely evening to pick up the spirits. Thx for sharing again!

@CliffHarveyRCPlanes Жыл бұрын

Bill Hannan was a great designer of probably hundreds of little models, and yes, an easy build if your looking for something quick to do while the glue sets on your latest project, have you fixed the Lidl conversion?

@downwindchecklist6567 Жыл бұрын

@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes Yes, the Lidl flies again. Not much time lately but it has flown. I need much more stick time before I dare to throw the Cub into the air ;)

What a neat quick build Cliff, and it glides so well! I think you're really on to something with the light plastic bag material. Should last a lot longer than tissue I would think.

@CliffHarveyRCPlanes Жыл бұрын

The plastic is incredibly light and yes, certainly less affected by moisture as well, it's a good option 👍
