Those are for the smaller cub.

You want the discontinued 1/4-Scale Cub Floats (HAN4580) if you can find some.

Is it ok if you tell us why? I was lucky enough to get a set for my 3DHS Bigfoot, but haven't used them yet. Is there something I should look out for? I can imagine having problems putting them on...

Just found this. Guy throws it around a little. Too bad it sounds like a weed whacker!

None of these are mine, but I don't think I've seen any of these in this thread yet.

Enjoy.

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

I haven't done anything to my gear, it came with the camber on one wheel. It's not that bad, and I can probably just bend the axle to compensate if it's a problem. It would be more of a hassle to...

Anybody tried the big bush wheels on pavement? The only place that is mud and snow free at the moment is pavement. I would like to get the maiden done though. I'm a little worried that it won't...

I have a couple of sizes of cloth from years gone by. I have no idea what the weights are anymore, but i do have some ultra thin stuff. I just use whatever epoxy I can get in town. I'll check out...

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

I see. No I didn't weigh them before. The stuff foams a lot when water is added to it, and I can't see it adding more than an ounce per float.

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

Do you mean the CG with the floats and without, or the final weight of the floats if I glass them? I don't have much experience glassing, so they will probably change a lot!

My CG with floats...

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

I tested a can of the supposedly high expansion stuff. The end result about the same size block of foam, but it weighed 1/2 an ounce less than the standard stuff. I think I'm just going o go with a...

Here's an example of Gorilla Glue & water on a gear plate. I did a low snap-to-pancake with my 70" 3DHS Slick a few years ago and this was the result. You can see the gear plate in the lower RH...

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

Thanks for the offer, but you don't have to go through the hassle of doing that for me.

The Gorrila Glue was done inside the float. If you squirt a little water on it and mix it up it expands...

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

Well I sprayed out a small can of the expanding foam. It looks like the correct amount to do the forward half of one float. It felt pretty light for it's size, but I weighed it and it came to 10...

Love the wig wag wing lights! Is the bottom landing light a scale location, or just to help you see the ground coming up on approach?

Looks great!

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

Sweet, I didn't know that the home stuff was two part as well. I would actually prefer the nozzle to get the stuff in the floats without having to cut any extra access holes. I've got a few places...

Thanks for the link Brian!

What is the advantage of the 2 part stuff, is it worth the added time and cost to get it?

Ouch. What is your setup? Big wheels?


Thanks for all of the info on filling the floats with foam guys. I think I'm going to look into it a little more.

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

We've had another blast of winter here, so I haven't done a maiden yet. Here's some info from post 549 on the VG's, I think there are more pictures around that part of the thread too:
