Now you went and made me want one. I'll have to explain this one to the wife. Any way, always remember to keep your wings in the air. Thanks.
I like how Fitz covers the issues he has with good humor. It reminds us that obstacles can be overcome and not to despair.
Really enjoyed your build process, great sense of humor.
ok im impressed. the air valve, the slats and flaps, build quality, and the way you present it is so unbiased.awesome plane man
That's a heck of a plane. If you shrink yourself a bit, wala it's a full sized aircraft.
I always enjoy watching a good instructor whose skills vastly exceed my own, but who will bend down to my own level so I can imagine it possible ... if I stretch a bit!
Lots of work filming and narrating the build process! Thanks for all your hard work!
Accidently just found this chanell. Its worderful - calm, instructional, fun. Greetings from Lithuania!
Great build! I had started watching your video on my phone while on my lunch break, but had decided to watch it on my smart TV was better, and it was.
I like how you had tackled each issue and made it look easy while doing it. I wish that your video was around when I had assembled my 1/4 scale Lysander three years ago. Heck, I wish that I knew of your youtube channel back then. Oh well. I still need to assemble the electronics and pull-pull wires, plus get a hold of a motor, fortunately your video will easily cover those.
Once again, thank you for your videos. They help out the amateur pilots like me.
This Plane looks incredible. I've never seen a shock Cub before. You do such a great job with your videos, I love all the comments you make when fixing all the Gremlins. Always a joy. I want this plane.
From one friend to another. When operating the band saw, always keep the guard as close to the bed as possible. For your safety and for stability of the blade. Thank you for a nice review! Definately wish for one of these now and might actually build a fi Storch with similar setup.
I use the adjustable standoffs from Extreme Flight. The "Blazing Star" Standoffs. They have them in a few sizes and they are made extremely well (to withstand the extreme stresses associated with hard core 3D/XA flying). Each standoff comes with several different size sections...and different length bolts that can be added/omitted as needed to get the perfect length. I use them on my 3D and scale planes. Can't beat them. Makes getting the right spinner to cowl gap so much easier.
Good info, I'll look into them.
Looks great. Just one critique. Use a ball link on each end of your throttle. The metal to metal z bend can cause two problems. One metal to metal and gas engines can cause RF noise which can be very bad. Add to that the play that is present in the z-bend makes it tough to get a consistent and reliable idle. Cheers!
Fabulous plane great great .video. professionally built
It looks like a well designed model. Many balsa models seem to be built without components in mind, especially when fitting a fuel engine.
What a beautiful plane! I've watched all of your hangar 9 builds and now, this. You did a great job on each with a side of humor. After watching this, I had to have a cub. So, I went ahead and bought a Cub Crafters xcub 60cc arf. A little on the pricy side when adding on the electronics but, the enjoyment from this hobby makes it worth every penny. Great video and I look forward to more!
I have a 50cc RCGF twin i am fitting in mine - yet the specs give much the same dimensions for the 40cc across the heads at 190mm as 50cc versions - yet you were able to fit the engine in with no plug cut outs - I have had to cut holes in the cowl to allow the plug heads to clear ...i can only assume seagull have made a smaller cowl in width between your model and the one i just bought. I actually have a spare cylinder for a 40cc one and was able to compare it against my 50 and the are the same height (width lying flat ) ...I got it sent in error so if anyone needs a new 40cc twin cylinder its available
the manual makes no mention of stripping the covering off when you fit the 4 shaped front flap mounting parts, so good point there.
This is an old man's airplane. Scary part is im totally diggings it lol
I love your build reviews because your a pro and they really help.
i have just assembled the wheels; ( which is NOT shown in the video ) the 4 bolts provided to join the wheel halves are too short to allow easy assembly - either get ones that are 1/2 longer and then cut them once together, or what i did what use clamps to force the halves together, as the big tyre makes for difficult assembly with the supplied bolts
Great work Fitz! Love your sense of humor.
Thank you for this build as it reminds me of the days I had a place to do so and built many large models which I still have.
Great work Fitz! Love your sense of humor.
Got to be the best out of the box and review I have ever seen !!
What a beauty - I really love your style of video making, not too much waffle and still lots of tips :)
Builds much like my Hangar Nine Carbon Cub...I went electric with a 60 series brushless and 22 volts....also did a video on the maiden and posted it.
"A jilling drig" - new tool by Fitz. @15:55
I like the spinner fit and clearance!
Excellent video Fitz and very well done. I was planning on unboxing mine this week but life has a way of changing plans. I have the silver version with the same motor.
He, Larry. We'll have to fly them in formation at some point.
Nicely done video.
One thing i noticed was the slack in the pushrods to the carb arms. The vibration from the gasser will enlarge those holes causing more slop in the linkage or possibly worse break. You also want to isolate any possibility of rf interference from the EI by using some type of nylon, whether it be a ball link or clevis at the ends of the linkage to the carb and throttle servo.
Yes, eventually I plan to redo the linkage with a ball link just like I did on the P-47 build.
Beautiful model! I hope for a flight video, more than the 90 second teaser you dangled over our cage weeks ago! Whenever I get frustrated with a build & begin to be tempted to take short-cuts, I gain inspiration from your build videos wherein you take such great care in each detail. Thank you Fitz! And I apologise for repeatedly requesting you to sell me your Arcus M glider, that had to be irritating after the first couple requests. Currently I'm flying the Conscendo Evolution & I love it! To death! But resurrected it by buying a new fuselage for it and to slow down the landing I'm adding aftermarket air brakes. This should aid in it's longevity. Thanks for your great videos and I am enjoying the podcast too!- Joe
Flight video is next. This is a two parter!
I really enjoyed this video. I don't know why you said ocd it is just common sense to want your plane right. Plus it comes with a free hat lmao
My friend, I will have to live vicariously through you at the moment.
EXCELLENT VIDEO. You cover a lot of small things that could be an issue. WELL DONE!
Use a soldering iron to cut the covering....it doesn’t cut the wood and risk weakening it
this is the most enjoyable build video i've ever watched. thanks for the entertainment. the plane is beautiful, too.
Lots of helpful tips. Nice work. Thank you sir!
Wow I love that model. And I appreciate your excellent review of this neat looking aircraft
I loved it. Want to learn how to fly one day. The video was very enjoyable . Two thumbs up
Excellent build !
P.S. I hope you had time to hide the wires inside the cockpit ;)
Awesome Job! Like your Videos, Bob Ross of modelling :D
I think it is a great and outstanding presentation
Questions
1. Have you considered adding tge pixhawk flight controller to make it autonomous?
That was so well narrated that I want to make one.
Awesome video! But now I want one. 😀
sweet build, cant wait for the maiden, slowjo
Beautiful model.
What a nice build review. Love the plane. Especially the tailwheel
Very nice build video! Thanks for sharing, now enjoy flying!
me parece espectacular
Thank you for your videos, they are very much enjoyed and I always learn something!
Wait! After all that, we didn't see it fly?! Rats!
Great construct walkthrough
Get some of the fiber reinforced cut off wheels for your dremel. They are so much better.
You do nice work
Ok, when's the flight review coming? I am very interested in how those movable leading edge slats work. I was a bit surprised when I found out they were movable and coupled to the flaps. I wouldn't have thought that would be the case and I'm not sure exactly how they work aerodynamically. Great building review though. This kit is definitely on my list for down the road and you chose to install the exact engine I want to use.
Nice Video... cant wait to see a full flight video! Fly it like you stole it!!!!
OMG! I want one. I enjoyed watching...
Excellent and complete video,
Love your videos. Thanks Fitz all the way from Sweden
Nice model.
AAAAH man that was one tough build, good job.
Another outstanding video well done Fitz
Thanks for sharing I’m going to order this model next month..
The leading edge slats what is the best way to have them crewed tight or loosened thanks
Eye yam gun-huh kneed hay nappy-nap, B4 cont. my "Fitz-Marathon"!
Very well edited video, thanks for this.
Fitz, Finished my shock cub finally. I was setting up the throws, and was wondering if you went with 120mm from leading edge for CG? Also, is the 120 just from leading edge or from stohl leading edge?
Thanks
Nice build video, always enjoyable.
Good job enjoy your video !!
Great time watching your videos 👂👍
just wondering if you would be able to mention the Price of the kits you make plus accessories etc...Thanks
Fitz, I love your instructive videos they are spot on tech wise and very entertaining. Could you give us a guide comparing the nitro engines to electric motor conversion? I have call many places and they try to impress me with nomenclature and acronyms.. I m about to pull out the rest of my hair. I talked to a guy on UA-cam that does explaining of electric vs fuel. He only insulted me saying or rather implying that I was stupid. thanks if you can help, I really don't want to get electronic engineering degree just to know what motor I need for what airplane.
That is an interesting topic as I've done electric conversions in the past. In fact I have a model on the back burner for one.
I could do a live show about it or a normal produced one. Let me think on it.
Rocky.. Found badly injured and had slight chances of survival.. This little fighter today is enjoying his beautiful life with his lovely family ❤️❤️❤️.
This is our goal for every animal! A beautiful life!
You can she his rescue video here :

Thank you!
Hello, great build!!! I built mine off your video as the manual was horrible. Would you mind sharing the programing for the spectrum
Ailerons:
High - 100%, 30% exp
Low - 65%, 0% exp
Elevator:
High - 100%, 20% exp
Low - 65%, 0% exp
Rudder: 100%
Flaps/elevator mix:
-100%/0%
-56%/5%
-10%/12%
do you trust those servo reversers?
best review ever thanks
Love yourvideos thaks mate. Alas I would love to be wealthy enough to afford such a wonderful outfit siiigh PS your tires are back to front ie harder to inflate
Nice!!!
good looking airplane
whoa....
Your video inspired me to buy this kit, thank you.
Is the CG 120mm back from the slats or from the leading edge of the wing?
Use the LE of the wing to start and not the slats.
Nice..... beautiful.
great video
yay!!
Quick question...How do you store the wings in the wing bags considering the metal strut assembly? does the assembly fold down?
Yes, the assembly can fold down if you pull the pin out of just one of the struts on each wing.
I saw the take-off it was so scale
Do you know the length and diamater of the wing tube? Cant find info on it anywhere
19mm diameter, 790mm length
@HobbyView Thank you so much!! Very much appreciated sir!
What do you do for a living? I really dreamed those huge rc plane.
Bonjour trop trop beau votre avion !!!! A quand votre vol inaugural ??? Stéph de France

Super comme modèle !
Thank you for a great video, quick question for you. I have spectrum NX6 will I have enough channels on the radio to run this aircraft?
Yes you can use the NX6, but you will have to use a servo reversing "y" harness like I used in the video.
Good Review ,as I have the older 40 twin with straight plugs I wonder if it will fit the cowl , of hand do you have the cowl size ? cheers
Cowl width is about 210mm (8.25").
@@HobbyView Thanks Cheers.
great vid....wondering which battery you used for the ignition? thanks
I use one 2s, 5000mAh LiPo for both ignition and servos
@@HobbyView thanks a lot
Nice build. I enjoyed your build process.
When will you be posting the tuning and flying video? LOVE the "OCD" comment.
Soon...
@@HobbyView Looking forward to see it fly!
Are you using stabilization on the AR637T? If not, the AR8020T has all the same telemetry, and 2 more channels
No. Not using stabilization.
The AR8020 would have been more ideal, but I already had 6 channel
Hello. What size prop did you use? and what size tripod can it go? Thank you very much.
Tripod?
yes tripod
@@leonardonavarro1131 , sorry. I'm not sure what you mean with out more context. Tripod for what?
Are the wings held on only by the struts?
No, there are also screws on the tops of the wings.
hi there sorry to bother but i have a quick question....so far all the planes i've had used 6.0 volt Nihm batteries, i am swtiching to 2S lipo 7.4 volt...i have hitec servos designed for 6 volts, can i use this 7.4 volt lipo with the servos? haven't tried that yet....appreciate your comments...or should i get a voltage regulator?
No. I would not recommend using a 2s lipo on non-HV servos. 2s LiPos can have a voltage as high as 8.2 volts fresh off a charge.
You will need to use a regulator. Make sure it is a fairly powerful one.
@@HobbyView thanks a lot....will look into that....happy flying
@@HobbyView do you know of any good regulator? thanks
@@ScalePlanesHangar , I don't have a particular brand per se. Spektrum and Castle are two major brands you can look into.
I personally would aim for about 1 amp per servo in sizing it.
Is Legend Hobby sponsoring you?
How did the cg end up. needed any weight in the front? or was the engine weight a perfect fit ?
CG was perfect. No extra weight needed.
@@HobbyView Thanx :)
'Shock'? Why?
Nice!! How long did it take in total to complete?
A little hard to say as I spent much of it mucking with the camera. Best guess is about 15-20 hours
