    3D CAP 232-ST design / build / prototype

    Yes I agree on the wing and stab placement. You brought the wing up some but not so much as to take away from a good scale look. Looks great.

    3D My first Design. I Dubb it The ChubCub

    3D 50% cap 232

    Interesting idea on taping a better tip to the ca bottle. I have been using the gorilla glue CA as my local lowes stopped carrying the tightbond in favor of the gorilla. They only carry the medium and I have to say I really like it. I also agree with you that the tip on the bottles suck. Build...

    3D My first Design. I Dubb it The ChubCub

    I screwed up and used hardwood for the wing joiner over 1/4" ply like the plans called for. In a WOT snap it did just that snapped. Didn't hurt the fuse and I will build new wings. Was flying to good before that not to rebuild them. Here is video of it and also a video of the V2 ChubCub flying...

    I think he had one to many to drink on the maiden. This is what's left of it. In the process of rebuilding now.

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Is there any way you can put smaller standoffs on the motor so it doesn't stick out as far? Looks killer by the way.

    3D My first Design. I Dubb it The ChubCub

    The fuse of V2 is all done. Just need to glue on the motor mount and some tristock the. Stuff the last of the guts into it. So long as all flys ok then it will be on to redesigning the wing to cut some weight. In the fuse alone I was able to cut over 1/2 oz of weight and there is still more to...

    Scale David Kocjančič Is The Worlds Greatest Scratch Builder PERIOD.

    That thing is wicked looking. Check out that crazy rudder swervo setup.

    3D CAP 232-ST design / build / prototype

    I think Matt Chapmans cowl is the standard old school cowl and terry is going for the look of the newer cap cowl. The cheeks are not as pronounced in my opinion on the one terry is doing but it still looks badass.

    Quick way to ruin family relationships! (Funny but true story)

    Heck I never had to tell my wife. Always interesting when at her parents house and my wife and her dad get into farting contest. I can't make this up either and she would prolly kill me for sharing this.
