EU1A Kit Quest
 

Hello everyone,

This is my first post on this forum and I have a question. I am looking for an unbuilt EU1A kit (the one with the fiberglass fuselage). If anyone has one they are willing to part with, please PM me and let me know. Thanks everyone.

Fly safe and have fun!!:D:D

Welcome, David. Were you aware that PAC still sell that kit?

Try Dan at Carolina Aircraft. Skip

Dan is one busy guy, it will likely be a while before he has any new kits going. I am waiting on the Aurora 60 myself...:D But his stuff is quite nice and he is a great guy to deal with.

Yeah, Dan is worth contacting.

he has a lot of irons in the fire... but sometimes that "Demand" for things can change a priority list :)

Last time I contacted PAC about the EU1-A it sounded like they had not produced one in quite a while.

RE: EU1A Kit Quest
 

All of PAC's molds are for sale. Well, most of them, anyway.

Anyone looking for a solid investment might seriously want to call MAureen and see what she will do for you price-wise. You may be quite suprised. I wouldn't think twice about buying them myself, except I have WAY too many irons in the fire, and no place to even keep them right now. That is a LOT of planes guys.....so who feels froggy? I'll be first in line for a couple of kits!

So you have heard Dan is going to do the Aurora60?? I tried e-mailing him about that with no response...Oh well...

If you hear any news on the Aurora I'd like to know myself....

Thanks

He has mentioned doing one in the future and I believe he had a fuse being shipped to him for a plug. I am pretty sure he will do wing and stab cores right now for both the 45 and 60 sizes, along with plans for a short kit. I volunteered to do a beta kit build for him after the first one is done, not sure if he will take me up on that, I also offered to buy the first production kit he does if the beta build doesn't work out. He is a very busy guy at the moment, so I expect it will be a while before anything happens, but you never know.

Just for reference, I currently have the T2A-40 kit sitting in my basement and I am waiting on a Brushfire kit that is in progress right now. Dan is very backed up because of a stretch of very cold weather that prevented him laying up fiberglass parts for a number of weeks a while ago. I am sure he is frantically trying to get the backlog cleared and get onto the new stuff...

vinny,

How about posting a picture of the model you still fly! Lots of us LOVE pictures...

RE: EU1A Kit Quest
 

Hello everyone,

All I can say is WOW!!:). I REALLY appreciate all of the help. It's like I have said in other forums, RCUniverse rocks!

RCBuilder42yrs, I have to agree with Tony. I'd love to see some pictures of your plane.

The airplane is for a good friend of mine who used to fly them in competition years ago. He said he ran his with a YS140 four stroke with the motor located in the cowl so the pipe on the exhaust ran concealed inside the fuselage. I'd like to get one and build it for him.

Thanks again everyone. Keep the suggestions coming.

Fly safe and have fun!! :D:D

Hello all,

Does anyone have an email or web site address where I can contact Dan at Carolina Airgraft? I am not in any hurry for the kit, but I do want one.

Fly safe and have fun!!:D:D

RE: EU1A Kit Quest
 

Dan does not have a website, his e-mail is:

carolinaaircraft(AT)earthlink.net

He may take a couple of days to get back to you, don't panic if he doesn't reply right away.

Mark,

Thanks for the information.[sm=thumbup.gif] I will get in touch with him. Don't worry, I won't panic. Like I said before, I am not in any hurry for the plane anyway.

Fly safe and have fun!!:D:D
