RE: Dave Patrick super cub
ORIGINAL: flyn_colorado If you read post #786 Hill202 had the same problem. I have the same set-up but have not maidened mine yet. Glad to see Keleo has great customer service! Ouch! His header broke clean off at the first exit bend. My flange broke inside the exhaust nut. My new header has tougher flanges, so I sure hope the tubing isn't the next thing to break now. So far it has held up well. How did your maiden flight go? |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Daniel-EL,
Sad to say I have not finished mine yet... Its about 3/4 of the way done... just finished the cockpit last week.... I am way behind! :-) Hope to get her up in the air this spring... Thats my goal anyways! I have been messing around with the Hanger 9 Piper Pawnee latley but back to the DPM Super Cub now! Are you still flying yours? |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
ORIGINAL: G.P. Can one of you that was lucky enough to get one of these please let me know how the corrugated flaps and ailerons were done? I am going to be doing an Adrian Page Super Cub over the winter and I would like to duplicate that if it doesn't add too much weight. Thanks, Greg Mark |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Hey Colorado, can you post some pics of your cockpit. I would love to see it. I too have been dragging my feet getting mine done. I ripped all the covering off and am just finishing up on the cloth and dope finish. It's been interesting, but very much worth the trouble as now I have a wrinkle free scale finish.

RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Ill post pictures, no problem...when it is complete. My first cockpit job.. I have some touch ups to finish up :-)
|
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Thank you Mark! It sounds like that may be a little hard to duplicate though! My build has slowed to a crawl because of a new addition to our family last Dec, so I guess I'll have some time to think about how to do it.
Thanks again! Greg |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Hey Bud, are you still on here? I have been going back through the posts looking for the info on where you got that little canoe to haul on the float rigging. I can't find it. I know I saw it somewhere back there. Could you please post or PM me the info?
Thanks, Mark |

RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Thanks Bud. I was talking to a friend about it and he got all excited about getting one for his Hangar 9. He is putting on a float fly in August and wants to spruce up his plane.
Thanks again, Mark |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Your welcome, you think you can get him to post a picture?
Bud |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
I'll give it a try. Most likely, I will shoot and post it as soon as he gets it done.

RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Does anyone on here know what kind of paint was used on the DP Cubs? I need to repaint and it would be nice to know for compatibility issues.
Thanks, Mark |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
I used a lustercote cub yellow spray in a can to repair the landing gear parts and it matched well
|
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
Just curious if anyone has any flight videos of their super cubs?
|
RE: Dave Patrick super cub

RE: Dave Patrick super cub
WOW thanks for the link. I saw the DP name on the lists of booths for Toledo this year on their web site, but I though it was just a misprint hold over from a pevious year. I spoke to Dave P at the WRAMS show several years ago when the cubs first came out (I got mine then) and he said that he was having terrible priority problems at the factory back then.

Steven
I would hope you would make the Super Cub available in white so we could add some scale trim. Jim |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
I like to do my own finishing and think that ALL arf's from any company should be offered in almost ready to cover version. DP had the S Cub set up that way. It allows for better personalization.

But if what you say is correct can you please reply to the email I sent you 3 days ago regarding a replacement aircraft / parts DPM had promised to send me 2 years ago, which I still haven't received, Mine was damaged in international freight. I hope you will respond and help DPM make amends with one unhappy camper. You can contact me directly on [email protected] Thanks and kind regards, James |
RE: Dave Patrick super cub
I just purchased a used clipped wing version. It's got a First Place Engines 40cc gas engine on it. 52 oz. Is this too much engine?

RE: Dave Patrick super cub
I know most of you have long ago finished you Super Cubs, but I finally just completed mine this evening. I purchased this Super Cub not long after they first became available. Through job change, a marriage and a move I finally made the time to get 'er done.
The engine is a YS140, servos are Hitec 645MG and the radio is a JR9303. There were several issues that added to the time needed to complete this Cub, but thanks to companies like Fiberglass Specialties and Aerotech I was able to get on the right track to complete the assembly. I just absoloutely love the plane and understand why this Cub has the following it goes. It's great news about Cermark bringing this Cub back to the market and look forward to seeing the Cub available again. Sure would like to have the CLipped Wing version!! I may attempt the maiden flight tomorrow 6/10 nothing else gets in the way. I did take soome photos this evening and will post them soon.:D Dan |
