Hello mates,
My Funcub NG is in the mail, I would like input on a few things before it comes in so I can have parts waiting. First off, what length servo extensions are you all running, for the tail and the wing? Also, for those of you who are running a spinner, what size? Thanks! |

I’ve been flying mine for about a month now. It’s a definite improvement over the original Funcub...better landing gear, flaps and motor mount. I ended up using a permax 3720-630 motor and a 13x8 prop. With this combo I can use 2200 3s or 4s batteries. I tried a 5 blade prop, it looked good but wasn’t enough thrust on 3s.

Interesting . . . it seems like Hitec/Multiplex isn't importing them into the USA. It would be nice to know what's up. Last I heard the fire in one of the factories was holding things up, but it looks like the assembly line is working in other places worldwide. The website is simply blank.

I ordered mine from https://www.hoelleinshop.com/e-vendo...in_e&a=catalog . Due to Covid limitations, they had to ship ocean freight.
Have patience...mine took 2 months to arrive but was worth the wait. |

Probably only in a dusty back shelf of a hobby store. I don't know of any North American distributor that still carries it and the websites are all dark on the model.

What should I do?
Hi all
After 5 year hiatus I am getting back to RC flying. I have a brand new ready to be flown Fun Cub then I see the NG version. Should I go ahead and purchase the NG or just fly the original version? I wonder if there is a HUGE improvement that I should not be bothered with the original. Dai |

How did the weight comparison work out? Some of their “fixes” look like they added a lot of weight and made any repairs much more difficult.. ditching the one wire landing gear and just bolting a simple two wire gear on a flat plate on the bottom and providing struts would have fixed 99% of the issues All the competitions planes are heavier than the fun cub and flew crappy in comparison. Hope they didn’t over engineer it and add weight that it didn’t need. |
