    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    The Morrisey is a great plane. The modern gassers are a great match for the older kits. I've also built quiet a few of the Sig kits in the past! One of my favorites is the Spacewalker.

    Thanks Mike! Yep, It's the Robart gear for the Balsa USA Cub. The Tailwheel assembly is from Sig.

    I did get the leading edge sheeting and cap strips on today. Oh, and some goodies showed up!

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I agree! But you are doing "Way" more detail and work than me!! I do have a set of plans for the 1/3 scale Cub, but watching your build is making me rethink why I got them. It's a very ambitious build for my skills.

    Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

    Hay Snoop, have an extra cup of coffee this morning. :) I think Tony was asking why you used epoxy on the tail hinges, and Gorilla glue on the wing hinges. I use Gorilla glue on all Robarts!!

    Got the wood I needed to build the missing parts for the other wing panel, so I got started on it.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Yep, it plugs right into the receiver and I use an aux switch to turn them on and off. It does work really well.

    I'm also thinking of installing the HK light I have.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Well, I decided to use the Sig Super X hinges. I've used them alot in the past and like them. I'll be using some music wire to pin them so I can remove the surfaces if I need to. Here's some pics.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I hear ya!! I've gotten a few robarts off kilter. Gives a nice squeak to the surface. :confused??: I have a better time with the CA hinges :too-cool:

    Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

    I'm a little late to the party, but Great build! Nice work.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I'm thinking of using the Sig X hinges, and a length of piano wire to secure them, as I'll be able to remove the surfaces if I need to. If I go with any thing else, it will probably just be Robart 3/16 pin hinges. I think the Sig X's will be easier to install though.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Thanks guys! Just got my wood order, so I can get started on the right wing panel. Hinging is another thing I've got to get worked out.

    Finally got the aileron built. Here's the method I used. It worked out good.
