    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Several small epoxy batches and several hours later I got the front end tri-stock all glued in place, as well as the tank mount. I was finally able to close up the big hole in the side!

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Well, I spent the better part of the last two days brainstorming an instrument panel. I've not done very many of these and I don't have the right equipment to make a realistic one, but I gave it a go anyway. I wanted something back lit, and I've seen one done on another forum, so I gave it a go...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Today, after work, I decided to tackle the rear fairing. I wasn't quite sure how to proceed, so I just jumped in. I decided to put the wing on and use my incidence meters to match up the wing and stab. I also matched up the stab with the wing tube for parallel while everything was just clamped...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Thanks! No need for apology though. I have a hard time catching up as well. Some times weeks before checking in. Keep up the good work on your Cub. Learning lots!

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    It's the OS GF40. I've got a bench vid of it a couple pages back. So far, it runs really good. Though I've not yet tested it with the Turbo muffler.

    Thanks Balsa, I've got a lot to learn about towing.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Thanks Tony, I've never towed before, so I'm not all that familiar with the process. But I think the tow line stays with the tow plane and the glider also has it's own release. I've got to do some research to find out if there is any interference with ridder operation, limited turn angles, climb...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I used some 1/8 ply to cover the rear cabin top. I also used the F2 that came with the kit and not needed, to add a center support for the tow release. I should have moved the tow release another 1/4 inch forward, so the servo was on the face of F6, I thought it would be, but missed. I might...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Got some work on the Cub done today. Got the wing tube sleeve cut up to proper lengths and installed the center section in the fuse. I also glued in F16, and used the left over ply doubler to add a front piece.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Haven't got much done lately, but I did fit the wing tube and make some donuts for the wing tube doublers I'll add when I glue the sleeves in.
