The FC seems to designed just fine to what it was intended to do.

Just my 2 cents ... And yes, you have change coming.

Agreed. I have both the Funcub and the Parkmaster. I am very new to 3D, but I had one of the guys at the field who flys quite a bit of 3D fly the Parkmaster and he said it handles very much like his Precision Acrobatics Addiction. Obviously it's lighter but he said it still felt a lot like the Addiction. Even I can hang it on the prop pretty easily. A lot more easily than the Funcub. It can do edge flight FAR more easily than the Funcub and it doesn't much matter which side is up. It flies the same either way. But it is not as much FUN as the Funcub!

I was worried about the gear being a bit 'soft' so I added a couple o-rings last night, turned out to be a little too stiff, and she tended to bounce on landing but I think we've got them dialed in now! Time to get started on the struts and a few other details and then ~ Fly Robin Fly! ~

That is a beautiful Funcub. Looks even better in the air than on the ground! Congrats!

Can you give a source for that FunCub? I have not seen a completed FunCub for Real Flight.

I have an early test version that Junkboy999 was working on and it flies almost exactly like my real Funcub. Even has flaps, but it is all an aqua color. The texturing was never finished and Junkboy doesn't seem to respond anymore. It is a shame because it is very, very good in it's flight characteristics..

That won't help :P I had one from the get-go. I never used the plastic mount on it. It was the plastic brackets (1 on each side) that let go. It broke right off 1/2inch from the front. Look at my posts in this thread and you will see the pictures.

I appreciate the warning on those wing strusts. They did look flimsy, but for 2 bucks what can I expect I guess. Ill fly the funcab as intended before I start making mods that I think are necessary.

So what is the report on those cublandinggear.com gears?

Remember someone is trying H-9 Super Cub gears and if there is any more report on those?

Way to go Robin! What a beauty you created. Flies great brother, thanks for the video.

When you guys trim out a plane how do you determine if you need to change rudder or aileron input since the rudder has so much authority on this plane?
