Piper Cub (oz14860)

About this Plan

Piper Cub. Radio control scale model. For .25 to .40 engines.

Quote (google translated from the German): "The PIPER CUB is exemplary, easy to transport, robust in construction and easy to fly. These are the typical features of this model. These building instructions describe the construction of the model (in the version with ailerons) with the OS MAX 25 FP motor. The installation of the OS MAX 35 FP and OS MAX FS 40 motors is shown on the plan. The installation of all other engines must be carried out at your own discretion. All wooden parts required for the aileron design are included in the kit. A list of the additional parts required can be found on plan sheet 1.

The construction instructions are mostly kept in the order of the parts list numbering. The structure of the flight model is explained chronologically. The information summarized at the end of the construction instructions should provide some additional explanations.

All pre-cut wooden parts are carefully separated from the boards with a sharp balsa knife and then deburred. All parts must always be fitted or adjusted; various parts are oversized for adjustment. To assemble, use a flat, straight building board, e.g. order no. Use 503. Deviations from the listed order when building the model are to be made at your own discretion. Subsequent installation of the remote control or a change may be difficult or not possible.

Use construction instructions with illustrations, parts list, the selected motor as well as servos, receivers and batteries as constant aids during construction. The positions marked * on the plan and in the parts list are not included in the construction kit. They are included in the fitting set, order no. 585 included. Although the middle part of the fuselage is essentially finished, we still recommend examining the glue spots. If necessary, rework with white glue (HENKEL-Ponal-express, UHU-coll or similar). Sand cleanly with a sanding board.

If the OSMAX 25-FP motor is installed, a spacer (frame) must first be made from strip (8)! It is best to saw the individual parts to size and glue them directly to the engine frame (section A-A) with white glue or epoxy. Tighten with a screw clamp. For the 35 FP and FS 40 engines, the respective engine mount is mounted directly on the engine frame (appropriately underlaid)..."
