Johnnie,

I, along with Don, will be conducting a presentation about the evolution of the Raven Program at one of the NASF meeting. I was orginially going to have a show-and-tell at the last meeting but something came up. Your son may enjoy attending since I will have hardware on display.

Tram,

I am interested in the Super Cub, but need more information. Is it NIB or built? If built, what is included? Flown? Condition? Picture please.

Here is a link to the bird: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=544818

It is build and flown and needs a little TLC..

I had an esc lock up and this was the result:

This pic is right after the action:

The plane is in decent shape, the damage was minimal, but I needed to pull the covering off to get to the crunched balsas.. I would be more than willing to recover it and/or include some covering with it..

It is only the airframe..

I will entertain any offers..

Here are some pics of it as it sits..

Is the cat included?

Looks pretty good, though.

The smaller one was in a 2 meter UHU electric powered sailplane. The larger one was in a 3 meter electric powered sailplane.

I have gotten out of powered flight almost entirely in favor of winch launched TD sailplanes. I still have a electric Estarter on floats at the lake.
