Is there any adjustability in the landing gear? I picked up a used cub and and the right side sits much higher up than left. As soon as I land it, it wants to spin around to the left.

The last owner had overtightened the gear mounts, causing one side to bind, and sit higher than the other. On top of that, the struts had their holes machined at different points and one side has tighter springs than the other

Re-maiden was last Saturday. Forgot what a joy she is to fly. Floats will be going back on soon for the Lake Mary float fly in September. Thanks for the help.
Cheers and beers. Matt |

Hanger 9 carbon cub engine setup
Hey i am new to rc planes and i just bought a hanger 9 carbon cub and i was wondering if any one put a saito fg-19-r3 or Fg-33-r3 in it and would know if it would bolt up to the engine mount?

HANGAR 9 Carbon Cub 15 ccQuote:
Hi venum, If you are completely new to rc planes I would not recommend the carbon cub as a first. It is a fairly heavy aircraft and isn’t the most forgiving. I would suggest joining a club and getting a trainer aircraft of some sort first. |

You surely do not want to mount lower than the thrust line. |

Use a dle, rcgf or whatever 15cc or 20cc. A radial on this would be a mess. Could be done, but why?

Have fun, it's your hobby. Enjoy it anyway you want it. Post before, during, and after pictures. I'm sure it'll be spectacular.

Hi Venum, I understand that you already have it, but if you are new to rc planes I would seriously advise you to not fly this plane first. As i already said it is a heavy plane and not the most forgiving plane to fly. If you aren’t a competent pilot already it could be extremely dangerous for yourself and anyone around you. |
