Need cowl & windshield for Hanger 9 Cub
Guys,
I'm in need of a cowl and windshield for a Hanger 9, 1/4 scale yellow J3 Cub. The version that was covered in yellow fabric that was out a few years ago. Not the current one that is covered in Ultracote. Strangely the cowls and windshields are not the same size! The new styles won't fit.... I tried. If anyone has a spare, preferably never mounted, I'm willing to pay a fair price. Thanks in advance, Roy Z. |
The old H-9 J-3 was a "small 1/4 scale" @100" wingspan. I have one also. The windshield can be fabricated out of flat stock as it isn't a molded canopy. Use thin tagboard to make a pattern to trace onto the clear plastic after you have a good fitting example. Several tries may be needed to get a good fitting cardboard pattern but it can be done. For the cowl, Fiberglass Specialties offers one for the H-9 100" J-3 Cub. Their cowls are unfinished just out of the mold and require some sanding, pin hole filling, priming, more sanding, and finish paint. I have used some of their cowls and they fit well and are not difficult to finish up. I have a new old stock spare cowl but I am not willing to part with it, sorry.

Thanks Larry,
Hoping to avoid the filling, sanding & painting of a Fiberglass Specialties cowl, but if that is all I can find I may have to. I have used their cowls in the past and I agree, with some effort they are pretty good. Thanks, RZ |
