Vintage Mercury IV and My Indoor Cub Enjoying the Breeze

They both get an airing, not an ideal day but great fun nevertheless. The Mercury IV tests out her new esc and my light-weight Cub does her stuff.

Nice flying

[@mikeparkercreative5136]

A lovely bit of flying Cliff...very therapeutic

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Thanks Mike, she's a great model to unwind with 👍

[@busabrye]

Takes off and flies just like my big Guff

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

I think they all fly pretty much the same don't they 😁👍

[@IansRCExploits]

The Mercury IV looks well sorted now Cliff some great electrical trickery!! Cub looks good and old too 😀👍

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Thanks Ian, I don't think I'll have any more trouble, I took the Cub up just in case I did though! Cheers 👍

[@ModelAV8RChannel]

The big Mercury seems all sorted out. flying great, and what a classic! The hovering with the super light Cub was awesome. Great flying in the wind Cliff!

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Thanks Adam, a good day, it seems if you don't fly in the wind this year you don't fly!

[@bobflyman]

Looks like a good day at the strip!

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

It was Bob, cheers 👍

That Mercury is one cool plane Cliff. Wish I had her in my fleet

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time to pick her up but as you know she required a lot of work 🙂👍

[@JeffinLowerAlabama]

Cliff what a great day of flying, both planes flew very well. Jeff in LA USA

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Thanks Jeff, I knew the wind was getting up as the day went on but I was determined to fly the little one, she handled it pretty well 🤔👍

[@downwindchecklist6567]

Really nice. The Touch and Go of the Mercury looked really great, even if unintentional. The Cub was also great. It reminds me I still have one of those to fly myself. I wonder if I'll ever find the courage.

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Thanks Andrew, you must get round to trying the Cub, if it all goes horribly wrong then you can use the equipment in another aeroplane 🤔👍

[@garygullikson6349]

The Merc is one of the most attractive old timers, wouldn't be surprised if you started a fad of Mercury IV scratch builds. I enjoy trying to fly my Sig 1/6 scale Cub in a scale like manner, there are a lot of instructional Cub videos on You Tube

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Hi Gary, the Mercury is a long build with all the planking, I honestly can't see anybody finding the time these days even if the end result is rather stunning 🤔👍

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Great video, makes me want to take out the Falcon. 😊

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Absolutely Mark, float on! 👍

[@tonycamplin8607]

Looked like a good day out. Can you tell us where it was or would they then have to kill you?

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Hi Tony, it was a great day, it's my local flying club, Exeter and District RCC, great chaps and facilities 👍

[@tonycamplin8607]

@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes Thanks, I live in the Cambridgeshire Fens so too far away to come and watch.

[@diceman2004]

Whaaaaaat ? The Tube Al Gore rhythm must have thought my comment that ( you should take the Cub to the slope ) must have been too Right wing , and controversial to post 2 day ago .

[@CliffHarveyRCPlanes]

Well let's face it DM it is a little 'out there' 🤔😁👍
