The video quality is excellent and well above the normal CZcams videos. Great flying and a perfect day, Enjoyed watching,
By far the BEST carbon cub video on CZcams! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
Our favorite Hangar 9 plane! Great flying! Cheers from Switzerland
Beautiful flying
As soon as these came back in stock at Tower I ordered one and the next day they were out of stock. Almost done putting mine together but did have an issue with the door and window not closing so I modified it to my liking. I am also going electric on mine. Great video, great flying!
This is so nice. I really enjoy flying my Carbon Cub s2 with no As3x no gyro 😎🤙
Beautiful plane, excellent flying and excellent footage!! Great job!! We are building our Carbon Cub 15cc now on our channel! Love it so far. Going electric route as well!
Thank you! Yeah it is a great plane to build and fly for sure!
Your landings are so buttery smooth, great skills
Thanks!
Beautiful.
Superbe. Bel avion, super pilote et bien filmé… bravo à vous (Luxembourg)
Thank You

Noch viele flüge mit der schönen Carbon Cup 😅😊
I wish it had some washout in the wings and the flaps bigger.
Very beautiful plane, I have also the Carbon Cup! Which type of wheels do you use for the main gear? Ich would like to buy also the wheels, they just look amazing
Awesome! What’s your flying Tim with 6S batteries?
Congratulations! Great footage! I 've recently purchased this plane too, still searching for to time to build it. One question please, do you use any mixing with landing flaps? Thank you nad regards from Greece!
Thanks! Yes, I do use some mixing with flaps for the elevator. I usually "eyeball" it / use my gut for the first flight (a few millimeters for each notch of flaps) then tweak it from there after flying it. Your flaps will produce some pitch up moment though and this depends on the speed of the plane, so remember to test your flaps around mid-throttle.
@@michaelbackus7107 thank you very much for your feedback! I'll take notice of it when time comes. Still in the box unfortunately. ;-)
I really want this plane but the size puts me off,I have a pheonix models cessna 182 which has a 1.65 meter wingspan that's enough for me.I love the way this looks
Honestly though the bigger they are, the easier and more fun they are to fly. If you do have access to an RC club its only natural I think that in time you'd want to try the bigger planes!
My first "big plane" was the original blue Eflite Carbon Z Cub 2.1m. I got it in 2012 and had around 200 flights on it until I finally moved on. It was a lot of fun!
@@michaelbackus7107 I'd love to fly it,its travelling with it I wouldn't like,taking it apart and putting it back together
Beautifull!!! Great your flight , she looks so gorgeous whit this wheels, 5 or 6” ??
6"Kavan wheels.
Does anyone know what
four stroke works well with this plane?
What ESC and prop size are you using for this and do you have any idea how many amps you are drawing?. I believe that motor is supposed to only be rated for 65 A sustained.
Is the Carbon Fiber Falcon propeller better than a wood one?
Maybe. Wood is a little heavier. Carbon Fiber is lighter, giving a little more RPM and maybe more power I'd imagine.
Are those tires the stock ones that come with the kit? Or did you install bigger ones?
These are the Kavan air tires, they are not the stock wheels.
How do you like the HC-X2000 camera??
It's my brothers but as you can see it's a great camcorder. It even has built-in ND filters.
@@michaelbackus7107 sweet thanks for the info good flying!
How much does that cost and where can you get it from? 😊
The setup for this plane in electric was about $1,100. A gasoline setup would be about the same cost. Horizon Hobby's website still sells the almost ready to fly kit of this plane for $359. But just keep in mind that only gets you the core model of the plane- you still need to put it together and purchase the engine or motor, batteries, servos, receiver, etc. I've had 2 of these planes- both in electric and gasoline form. It's a solid size (90" inch wingspan) and looks pretty good too!
Take off in five feet!
Nice scale flyimg! I am thinking about getting this plane are there any negative things you have found with it?
No negative experiences at all with this one! I've flown it in both electric and gasoline configurations.
Anything but scale flying.
How does it fly in the wind?
I typically fly in the mornings or evenings, but this one does handle wind well. Most RC planes with good power will be able to handle wind since you can fly against it or power out of it. I wouldn't fly my old 80" Cub with a Saito 4 stroke nitro engine in anything other than a light breeze since it doesn't have very much power at all as that one is a vintage model.
Hey Bro, what engine are you using?
- Eflite Power 60 470kv brushless motor for this one. A few years ago I had another one which I put an RCGF 21cc twin gas engine on. Both work well but the brushless motor setup gives more power.
Thanks
Cost? Where purchase?
I believe this plane is still available from Horizon Hobby's website, its been out for about 3 years bow. Its about $350 for just the balsa model which is almost ready to fly- you just need to add electronics and either an electric motor setup or gasoline setup. One of my channels oldest videos has this same plane with a 21cc engine. A full setup is around $1,000 for this plane.
You new to RC planes?
@@michaelbackus7107 thanks for the info, yes I am new but have long admired RC planes, helicopters and boats....particularly sail boats....thinking of taking the plunge for fun times with grandson.....appreciate your response! RalphDeKemper 🛸
@@rdekemper I would recommend the smaller foam planes to start with. The "bind and fly" models that are around 4 feet. They even have a "safe mode" or auto leveling mode. Easy to jump in to. Don't forget to get a good radio too.
