Default Goldberg Cub Build - back at the table

This will be a catch up post as construction has been underway. So not the most complex plane to build. Actually built several over the years. Even framed one on a hotel dresser during an extended work out of town trip. I have been out of hobby for 12+ years. My youngest has expressed interest. I thought I would at least show him the foundation of RC flying before he falls into the world of ARFSs. Which have come a long ways since my departure from hobby. I still love building from sticks. Hoping to get onto bigger and better like Nosen Citabria or Precedent Champ 1/4 scales. I have done several Sig 1/4 Cubs in past and bashed to various forms such as L-4 with greenhouse to E-2 Taylor Cub and typically clipped as well as full length. Enough rambling, onto build. The Goldberg Cub kit is a great kit IMO and assembles quickly. I picked this one up off local Craigslist. Appears to have been an older design as the engine mounts were aluminum vs resin. Excuse the iphone pictures and poor lighting.

early framing. elevators redesigned to resemble Supercub. kiddo getting shot at assembly.
