- Tiny engine, big fun. Cox Tee Dee 010 in power pod on Graupner Sonny glider converted to 2 channel RC. Glider pod hollowed out to take servos, receiver, pull-up regulator and lipo.
Nice evening flight before the rain came in. Tried to keep the plane in close proximity of the camera, fortunately had the perfect camera man, who did his best to keep the tiny, fast plane in focus, thank you very much!
Graupner Sonny scratch built from outerzone.com plans in original size.
2 Servos: GH-S37A
Receiver: Flysky FS2A
Lipo: Gaoneng 350mAh 1s
Transmitter: Flysky FS-i6 10 channel mod.
Fuel: Rapicon Car 16% Nitro + 10% castor - Наука та технологія
I’m 7 or 8 years old in the lush patch of open lawn across the street on a hot sunny day with blue skies and wearing bell bottom jeans, I can smell the castor oil and feel the warm breeze and hear the old lady shouting me down, thankfully drowned pit by the screaming Baby Bee - thank you for that!
Don’t forget the occasion of bloody fingers lol.
We must have been at the same park
Fun time backs in the early 1960’s with my day who passed away 14 years ago.
Haha, I can relate! :-)
That's awesomeness. I had myself a Cox motor and left it a home in it's original packaging which was sitting in a box of other hobby supplies and my Mum decided to throw out my hobby supplies not knowing what this Cox packaging contained. I'm still upset many years later and here in Australia Cox is pretty difficult to find any vintage motors especially as Cox went out of business. 😭
Thank you for the memories! Too bad there is no internet smell transmission for a complete immersion into the souvenirs.
Ahh, what memories, flying control line- building and launching Estes rockets- teaching my father how to fly RC. Good God I miss him! Thank you for the memories!
Oh yes, technology of my youth many decades ago :-)
Haha, yes, but enhanced with top modern 2,4 micro RC! Best of two worlds.
I can still smell the castor oil......... fifty years later. Thanks for the video.
My index finger never fully recovered 60 yrs later from the constant strikes of those nylon blades. I still have a few of those engines here somewhere.
Still have a scare on my index finger when I accidentally slipped when throwing my plane and sent my finger right into the prop. Thankfully just an .049
They need to get some air again! :-)
@@gregzielinski Ouch! They can bite, true!
That is AMAZING that an 010 plan can fly that fast!!! Blistering!
I forgot about that clever spring behind the prop! Brings back memories - of frustration!
Oh no, had troubles with Cox starting also when I was young, but now I find them very easy starters. I think the most important thing is the glow source. A adjustable glow panel works best for me.
Had one of the .010s and an .020 when I was a kid and built a couple of free flight gliders for them. Never had the guts to launch the airplanes as I was sure they'd fly off and never come back. Had great times and learned real skills and brain knowledge with this wonderful hobby.
RC ing these cox planes is the next logical step. Looks like a blast.
We used to buy 10 cent balsa gliders and glue them together and put on a firewall on the front and mount one of these ... sometimes we would do a free flight others we’d install a belcrank and some tape on the tail and make a control line... hours of fun on the Cheap
True. And you also learn much in this process.
I haven't heard one of those engines and years! Full throttle is the only speed and it's amazing how long that little fuel tank lasts. Great little video.
Thanks! :-)
Wow I thought that was going to be a free flight plane then up comes a remote. Awesome.
Great minds.....
Same thought here bro
Haha, the plane is a free flying glider, but modern 2.4 RC is really so small that it can be hidden.
I thought the same.
I like the r/c addition, we usta just chase it to the next zipcode.
I remember those!! :-)
There was always a tree between us and the next zipcode as far as I remember, haha!
this brings back fond memories of my childhood
character, excitement and soul. Something electric flight totally lacks. Great vid of this little screamer!
Thanks! :-D
Excellent, beautiful model aircraft and very good flight! Congratulations. Thanks for sharing the video!
Thank you very much!
These cox engines are superb power to weight ratio and quality...and your video shows you d'ont need a big engine/model to enjoy yourself. Thanks for the download!
The "beautiful " COX sound , 55 years ago I hat one on my own! My P51 !!
U control?
@@hondaxl250k0 with the lines
@@rastalomengo6646 yes that’s u control. Hours of getting dizzy. Lol and bloody fingers
You gave me memories of my childhood - thank you ! I used to have the Sonny Glider, too. And I used to have COX-Mini Engines, too. But this combination I didn´t try. The radio controls of the late 60th were heavier, than two of those planes. We got the thing in the air by thin tow ropes, running as fast, as we could.
...beautifull job, beautifull model, beautifull video...love this little engines, have 3 020, 3 049, my first one was a pitts babe bee 020 (1969)...lovely sound..congrats..👍😊🙏
Thank you very much! :-)
Really nice! so good to hear this little guy run-and fly so nicely!
I COULD NOT GET RID OF MY BIG SMILE FROM MY FACE THROGH OUT THE WHOLE VIDEO WE USE TO RUN THOSE SMALL ENGINES BACK IN MY HOME TOWN IN MEXICO BUT WE WHERE POOR AND DIDNT HAVE REMOTE CONTROLERS SO WE JUST ATACHED TWO STRINGS TO THE PLANE AND FLEW IT AROUND US BEAUTIFUL STUFF BRIG BACK GREAT MEMORIES I CAN SMELL THE FUEL 😁👍
Haha, thank you for your memories! :-)
Control Line is a ton of fun, too. Have dogfights with your buddies!

This was my first self buildet Model about 55 years ago. To that time its name was "Der kleine UHU". Nice to see it fly again with Cox and RC.
I believe the Sonny was a smaller brother of the Uhu ... did you also fly it with a 'smouldering cord' to release the elevator :)
This Model an the Engine will become very precious one day. I wouldn't dare to use it.
The model is not precious at all, because it is newly build after a plan, no vintage kit was harmed in this process. For the 010 Tee Dee: If you are patient you still get used 010s at reasonable prices, and you also get spares for them. I already got 3 this way. If you want a NOS, you'd better sell you car first, haha! I don't want shelf queens, the things are made for flying and need air!
I Still have one of those old ass Cox .049 with the tank attached from the late 50's (I'm guessing) that was my grandpa's. It Still runs! Loved the video! Thanks for sharing.
Just take it out, build an easy balsa plane from Outerzone plans, and let it soar again! :-)
Sonny war mein erster - Uhu war 4,95 DM teurer. Mensch - tolles Video. Das mach ich jetzt auch! Ich habe noch 1 Sonny Original-Baukasten aus dem Verkauf eines Restbestandes eines Gymnasiums. Danke für die Inspiration!, LG, R.
Vielen Dank! Ich hab diesen Sonny nach Plan gebaut, das geht recht gut, da alle Rippen gleich sind. Also ein Muster nach Plan aus Sperrholz ausgesägt, und anhand dessen die Rippen ausgeschnitten. Den Plan hab ich von Outerzone. Den Baukasten würd ich aufheben!
I remember those Coxes still very well..Have still scares on my fingers from playing with them in late 70's...
Haha, they can bite, especially when the prime is too much!
I've always enjoyed smaller models. Faster to build, easier to store and transport, and you can have a whole fleet of them. Yours is the perfect size. Some people say the smaller engines are troublesome. I've never had a problem with the .010, .020, and 049. They all ran beautifully.
Yes, very true. I find Cox engines very easy to start. If it doesn't start well, usualy there is a problem with a clogged venturi or a sticking reed. Important is a good power source for the glow plug, I use an adjustable power panel.
An experienced man struggled about one hour with my new cox tee dee 0.8ccm until it ran. That was in 1978. Where has the time gone!
when i was a boy i had 3 of the cox little engine sizes and made free flight planes. it was lots of fun 60 years ago, i can still smell the fuel burning.
Magic...Cox Vintage Glider🛩😀👍Fantastic Graupner😉🛩🌠🛩🌠🛩🌠
I built I think half a dozen of them when I was a boy and scattered them in the woods, haha!
Bravo! I would love to have my .020 and my collection of .049s back. They provided hours of fun and hours of dreams of fun!
Wonderful, I remember when that cute little engine came on the market. Sounds like a bumblebee.
*During the 1970's the .010 was so cheap I just put them in the garbage-can and ordered 10 new ones by mail order - $96.00 for a 10 pack as a Cox dealer (My dead helped me get that dealership via his hardware store). I must have trashed over 300 of those .010's in my 7 years of flying,,, before I discovered GIRLS! Now I HOARD everything and tell my kids to HOARD stuff too.*
Ach Gott waren das Zeiten als wir damals mit den Cox-Motoren hantierten. Hatte gerade ein deja vu. Danke dafür.
Just the sheer noise of the little Tee Dee is what keeps it in the air.
I can smell the nitro now...back in time
It is amazing how smells bring back memories! :-)
That's a zippy little glider. Looks like a lot of fun once it gets in the air.
2.4GHz radio with 2.4MHz rpm! ;-) Nice job thanks
Hehe! Thank you!
Had one of those when a child but of course without controls. Just a burning fuse cut a 3 minutes, 2 minutes approximately on fuel for the cox. The fuse was to burn through the elastic band on the elevator which would than go into 100% vertical the ruder slight right to make slow turns gaining altitude. Spend many hours in the evening at school building it and very proud of my achievement. Still remember looking at it spiraling up in the air making nice slow right turns it caught the wind the cox spurred on the fuse didn't burn through I guess as it was never to be seen again.....
Been there, done that! :-) Timing the fuse was always a problem. Sometime it even DTed while holding the plane to throw it, because we made the fuse too short, hehe.
The Angry Wasp that is the Cox 010 - a sound from my childhood (along with the 049)
Ja.. gute alte Zeit. Mein ersten Modelle waren tophsy und dandy mit einem cox 👌👍
Mein erstes Motormodell war auch eine Topsy. Bin das Ding aber nie geflogen, der Tee Dee den ich hatte sah viel zu groß auf dem Ding aus. Hab mir aber kürzlich wieder einen gebaut und hab viel Spaß, hat einen Babe Bee jetzt drauf, und der ist sogar eher zu stark.
Sonny multivitaminé!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Excellent!!
very nice
Thanks!
Excellent! I luv the Cox motors.
Nice video....
They are pretty quick !
Your flying skills are very good !

Thanks for your kind words! :-)
I remember the old Cox cars as a kid..I'm 54 ...
Very cool I thought it was going to be a free flight!!
Free flight is hardly possible these days I find. You need really open space which is scarce aroud here. But thanks to the new 2.4 you can hide the little helpers in the free flyer fuses, and I find this the best of two worlds. :-)
Magic! I’ve still got a TD .010 and a TD .020 kicking around somewhere.
Get them out to the light! Download a plan from Outerzone, get your Exacto and a few balsa sheets and off you go! Or a kit, there are so many kits and short kits around these days, I for example converted a chinese mini stick balsa kit to glow with a TD 020 and I am having a ball!
if only the carburetor did not disappoint))
Voll Krass: ein kleiner UHU mit 0,8er TD. Wir haben in den den 70ern nix verkehrt gemacht und Spaß gehabt!!!
El zumbido,, y el olor del nitro quemado,,, grandes recuerdos de la juventud cuando volaba control por líneas
Yes indeed, especially the smell, hehe!
sorry - in your language:
Sonny was my first - Uhu was 4.95 DM more expensive. Wow - great video. I'm doing that now too! I still have 1 Sonny original kit from a sale of leftover stock from a grammar school. Thanks for the inspiration!, Greetings, R.
My language is German, too, although I am from Austria!
It sounds like a pissed-off bumblebee!!!
Or a happy mosquito, haha!
Nice flight. And that thing cooks. Makes me think my old .049's were way over powered.
Muito legal, parabéns. O piloto é muito bom, também!
That thing is mivin with that 010 on it
I was fearing that the engine would be too weak for the plane but it is really surprisingly powerful!
It's been a half-century but I'm smelling the fuel right now.
It’s a little ripper !! ❤
What a cool idea !
Hermoso vuelo, saludos desde Argentina
Thanks, saludos desde Austria!
Almost chopped my fingers off several times with those COX planes when I was a kid.
The 010 is fortunately not very powerful, but it can also bite, because everything is so small and fumbeling the needle is very delicate with my big hands.
the good old days ,,Love it
Der "kleine Uhu", später wurde er in "Sonny" umbenannt.
GOOD BOY SWEET PLANE!
Muy buen vídeo, cuantos recuerdos del Cox Tee dee 0.10, y el Graupner, yo tengo como 5 motores Cox 0.10 para mi son una joya, saludos cordiales compañero de UA-cam.
Yo tuve los .049, pero en modelos de vuelo libre
Thank you! :-) I have also three 010, to be on the safe side, haha!
Excellent, flight Very good. Márcio Brazil
That is very kind from you, thank you!
Wow it's amazing😊😊
Absolutely AWESOME ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks very much! :-)
Cool plane!
irgendwo liegt bei mir auch noch ein alter 049er rum.... :-).... // Dein kleines Ding tönt ziemlich "hässig" wie eine Stechmücke.....und bewegt sich standesgemäss noch "zickig" wie eine kleine Diva in der Luft........:-).....= schön wieder mal so was in der Luft zu sehen und zu hören /danke
Freut mich sehr dass es Dir gefällt! Ja, das Ding sollte 25000 Touren drehen, das klingt dann schon mal ein wenig forsch, hehe! An sich fliegt der Sonny recht gutmütig, ich wollte aber in der Nähe der Kamera bleiben, und dadurch musste ich recht herumkurven.
Absolut toll. Das freut mich.😉😊
I remember having 3 of the .049 cox motors on my custom built plane. Imagine how frustrating that was to get all three to fire up and running
Somewhere here is a model Spruce Goose with 8 .010s. A bugger to get them all started but it flew well.
Da muss ich mich anschließen, schön!
The good old times :-)
But with the merits of 2,4 micro RC equipment, haha!
I never had an .010 but I had a pee wee .020 in a Ranger 30 free flight that was a climbing demon! With today's radios that thing would have made an excellent RC model. Plenty of room for gear.
And I thought the PeeWee (.33ccm) was the smallest ... propelling my Graupner Mini Piper recommended for a 2channel Bellaphon rc .. but the most appealing to me by name was the mighty 'Black Widow' huhhh . :)
@@aureliobrighton1871 By name I got to give the win to all those old ignition engines before my time like the Comet and others from that period.

fuel power cox motor is a sooo cute small engine...
alot of fun with R/C model airplane
Memories galore! And the smell of that fuel! That's a .020? The .049 engines were the most popular. Had a few "U-Control" Cox planes way back in the day.
Haha, it is even smaller, the smallest engine Cox ever produced. It is a .010 Tee Dee.
They also made an .010 believe
@@johnorabone6112 - You guys are bringing back memories 🙂 Never had an .010 but had a .049 and still remember the sound of the engine and smell of the burnt Cox fuel.
Build all week. Spin around in circle on the weekend until you crash. Rinse and repeat. Wish I'm am a teenager again
This is so cute 😌
Thanks! :-)
,,,,D E R ..GUTE "COX"-Sound...wie damals...vor 50 Jahren...🤣 war kilometerweit zu hören...da wusste MAN(N) bescheid...
Nice got to love the .10s do ya want to sell it ???😂😂no man in there right mind would sell them engines if ya have 1 just priceless great vid🤙🤙
Oha, wenn ich das sehe, wird es Zeit das ich endlich die Retro-Sunny baue😉
Unbedingt! Machst es auch mit RC oder Freiflug?
Nice bro ❤❤
Wow fantastic.
Thanks! :-)
I own 2 of these TD 010.cox engines they run at 29thousand RPM .. amazing little power house
What plane do you use them in?
@@cyburgsengines5099 I use arrow kits or make my own from scratch as 2 way radio
Back in the day I used the exhaust throttle on those then switched to Norvel and MP Jet engines! Nowadays its just Brushless and LiPo's! Maybe I should get them out on some planes and freak people out!
You definitely should! I also love the MP-Jet 040. You will finde that most people don*'t freak out but start to giggle and can't stop.
Love those engines. Sounds like a mosquito in your ear. 😂
Hehe, I also love the sound! :-)
Wonderful! 🐝 👀
All the memories come flooding back. The noise is a bit antisocial in the Twenty-First Century. I have a couple of .049 variants in a box somewhere.
Haha, no problem, if you are not flying in the backyard as we did in the last century. Somewhere out there is perfectly OK! As I mentieoned before, download some easy plans from Outerzone, built a plane and let the Coxes sing again!
Que chulo!
Very good
I really wanted to see it take off and drag glo-plug line, battery, toolbox, and car with it.
One question: Wasn't the smallest engine from Cox the engine for the Mini-Piper? It was hell to get that thing running and made more noise than it made power.
Ah, the Cox .010 knuckle destroyer
Haha, setting the needle is very delicate with big hands, true! :-)
Die RC-Elemente sind wohl ganz schön geschrumpft inzwischen. ;)
Oh the flicking prop to start it, yes remember that well. But was free flight in my early days.
Free flight is hardly possible nowadays. But fortunately the electronic is so small, cheap and reliable these days, so I think we are better off now!
@@cyburgsengines5099 Thanks to dumb drone fliers the entire model plane hobby has been pretty much wrecked.
TD engines have some power .10 .20 .49 .51. .09
Cool ! 👍😎
Thanks! :-)
Perfect!
Thanks! :-)
Süper güzel olmuş 😁♥️🇹🇷🇹🇷
