GlassCub - Ultra Slow Flyer Bush Plane

[@ajw61185]

Hi everyone. I have updated the description to include a link to the original build thread for the small version which includes the plans I drew. Hoping to get back to making more videos soon.

[@TIRCQ]

Today I've found your post and project. Love it... taking notes to build it. Greetings from Costa Rica PURA VIDA!

[@afrog2666]

It looks like a lot of fun, thanks for posting the build notes (:

[@Noah-u2z]

Lots of fun!

[@ARCEYE78]

Would loved to of seen your build vid on this, can’t seem to get depron here in Oz now so I’m going to try eps instead with a hotwire cut wing, I doubt it will be as light and pretty as this fantastic build but I’ll give it a go, thanks for the free plans and info, it’s really appreciated 🙂👍

[@tompryor3034]

This is what makes me want to get into r/c planes. I have been watching a lot of videos on slow flyers and have been on the fence about diving into this area of the r/c hobby. This video sealed the deal!

[@shop970]

This is very refined & exacting. Not a place to BEGIN r/c flying. You're looking at years of skill. Expert building. Master piloting skills. Slow flying and extreme low wing loading, are not typical rc models. Good luck. Build your own. You will achieve much more of your goals.

I LOVE how well lightweight models fly, but this is next level! Magnificent!

[@MoritzWeller]

Here I am completely focussed on gliders, and suddenly I get a lovely micro like this in my recommended.. Love it!

[@samuelarpas1103]

Just beginner looking for starter planes and this combination plane + flying skills are real joy to watch. I am really intrigued to build one.

[@raymondo162]

probably the best build and flying skills i've seen on the choob. inspiring

[@beegee22]

What an amazing little slow flyer! Love how it handles with the flaperons - incredible rolling circles and even a knife edge early in the video. Fantastic little airplane! Thanks for sharing.

[@montri399]

This is a slow flight video. The most wonderful thing I've ever seen.

[@DRosend44]

That is a fun plane! Must. Have. Plans.

[@stephensowell9578]

Slow flying is one of my most favorite things to do. I would love to build one. Thanks.

[@knutneumann2397]

Just came across this video. What a gem of a plane, really love it.

[@TailHeavyProductions]

Now THIS is right up our alley. Great stuff. Fly 'em light!

[@sethburdge2684]

The plane and your piloting skills are awesome!!

[@michaelwhinnery164]

This is Absolutely Brilliant !!! Every body wants to fly fast, but it is so much fun to slow down and fly at the other ends of the limits. Is there a build video ?

[@CANALROBBY]

Bravo et merci. Le pilotage comme j'aime en vol lent, c'est magnifique et tellement plus proche du vol d'un vrai avion. 👍✌

[@cr2fabrication]

Beautiful build, and some nice flying!!!!

[@thomasseeley8124]

What an amazing flyer you made there. I'm very impressed!

[@Swankthe____]

Been having a blast with your design man, have built a 15.7' or whatever the sock one was and a sized up 27" with turbo timber evo linkage and guts, a fatty high lift custom airfoil and reinforced all with 1mm carbon fiber rod. maxed out flaps to 90 degrees and stol is nearly vtol. Thanks again man! more plans please!!!

[@steveyoth1]

Oh, I want one like that! Very cool!

[@ddyodaman5515]

Lol. Very ultra light! Great job!

[@ajw61185]

Thanks dude

[@sparks991]

Too Cool! Current state of the art fun flyer.

[@nathanbarraud4349]

That's amazing ! Are you going to share the plans ? I would really like to build one

Hi, where can I get the plane for this slow flyer, its amzing

[@danielmontmeny9880]

Agreed, this looks like a must build! Please add plans!

[@ukmitch86]

Multiplex funnycub is very similar gents

[@tomicktwo]

you can get the plans here for the 3mm version, you can scale it 2x to make the glasscub: www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?1746834-SkeleCub-Plans-and-or-maybe-Kit

[@granttoye5852]

Seems pretty simple to do, to me! Looks like you could do a very similar thing out of foam board, and tissue/wax paper. Wax paper will be somewhat heavier. Very small motor requirements, and flaperons. And the wheels look 3d printed. Could shave weight and make them thinner, sand them down, use wire or balsa discs, etc

[@DarrenMaunu]

Looks like a fun aircraft to fly!

[@garypaisley]

Multiple answers to topical questions, Thanks!

[@BillKisel]

That was so much fun to watch.

[@mattdrat3087]

[@raymond4191]

Very nice little airplane .. well done! And such nice and fun flying of it 😄👍 Inspires me to go back and try out ultra light micro cub-like flying again. Just for some backyard fun once in a while.

[@wwkanchanaarunakumaraperer4425]

nice flying

[@budblues]

That was some amazing flying skills! I'm going to try and build one of these. Hope it will fly as good as yours. Although I know my skills at flying are nowhere near your skills. I'm hoping this plane is very light and therefore forgiving.

[@basgerritsen9669]

Absolutely awesome plane! I do more high performance stuff these days but this reminds me of when I used to fly indoor 3d planes. Amazing build and incredible performance, this plane is the embodiment of everything a slowflyer/3d plane should be!

[@danfosgett5154]

I've been doing 1/2 scale powered gliders. This looks really fun. I have the Herr Cloud Ranger plans Im thinking do a foam version similar to your glass cub. The Slow flying is amazing. stay safe and happy flying!

Hello, clip owner. This machine looks very beautiful, clean and heartfelt. I would like to ask you, what exactly is the wingspan? I have downloaded a pdf file on the forum that discusses this airplane, but I don't know the length of the wings and various fuselage parts. Please tell me. Thank you very much.🙏🙏🙏

[@matthewchernikeeff8131]

I have to say amazing build, very clever. I have been inspired to build and cut one myself so thanks for the dxf. i have all of the parts on order but have a couple of questions that i am hoping you can help me with. First is what size carbon rod did you use? Is it the same through out the whole plane? Also the construction of the under carriage, some detail of attachment and rubber band suspension, are the Funny cub wheels EPP, as i will have to make a set? Cheers and many thanks fro Aus.

[@Airguardian]

Absolutely outstanding! :D

Hola, quiero hacer este avion, para hacerlo en el mismo tamaño que el del video, es solo imprimir los planos el doble de grande? Muchas gracias.

[@SkrawnCPT]

www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?1746834-SkeleCub-Plans-and-or-maybe-Kit You will need to double the size of the plans to get the size in the video.

[@polylight]

Some might say, but what do you fly on windy days? Windy days are for staying inside and building lighter planes.

[@hawkfpv4950]

WOW this is so cool keep it up man!

[@spiroskatsikas]

What did u cover the wing with and not buckle it

[@thewatersavior]

What was the crossbreeze? Have been trying to get my ft cub to fly in small area but requires twice the area desired to get in the air. Love to know your setup!

[@racerx600rr]

De-light-ful!!!

[@collective.ink_pro8598]

Did u applied 2° angle motor mount or just straight

[@LWJCarroll]

I was trying to see if you used strip foam rather than cut outs on a sheet? Thanks Laurie

[@ajw61185]

I but it from foam sheet, but you could probably use strips. It would end up around 20% heavier without the cutouts, which would still be pretty light if you wanted to try that.

[@LWJCarroll]

Thanks

[@adamburry]

It is like watching a muppet, it looked so alive! Fantastic job.

[@osalbuos]

Realmente maravilloso. Felicitaciones. También me gustan los modelos grandes, lentos y livianos y es por eso que hago alas volantes; en especial porque aquí no tenemos estos materiales.

[@giovanni545]

Por favor mira Apocalipsis 14:12-13 de las 2 cualidades de que un santo es. Apocalipsis 14:12-14 (Reina-Valera 1960) 12 Aquí está la paciencia de los santos, los que guardan los mandamientos de Dios y la fe de Jesús. 13 Oí una voz que desde el cielo me decía: Escribe: Bienaventurados de aquí en adelante los muertos que mueren en el Señor. Sí, dice el Espíritu, descansarán de sus trabajos, porque sus obras con ellos siguen.

[@MrZizilis]

Outstanding build & flying!!!!!!!! Guess that its wing loading must be extremely low....maybe less than 2 oz/sq.ft ..?!?!?!?! Very well done!

What are the specs? Motor, Battery, Wing span, Weight, ETC. AWESOME Job!

[@ajw61185]

Motor and ESC are from the Twisted Hobbys "Lite Series" power combo 2203 1800Kv motor and 15 A esc. Battery is a 2s300mAh. Prop is an APC 9x3.7. Span is 1 meter, with an AUW just under 100 grams. I used the little 1.7g servos from Hobby King

Hi Adam, I noticed your ailerons are both going the same direction. Do you have them setup in your radio as flaps? Also, curious as to what size prop you're using. Thanks!

[@ajw61185]

@@budblues yes, they are setup as flaperons in the radio. Also I'm running a bunch of differential, so they deflect more up than down for roll. I think the prop is a 9x3
