Default CAP is gone?

I believe it is coming back at some point?

I know where you can get one if the price is right I believe you even really like the scheme on it haha. I am going to be getting a WH 260 in a week or so (waiting for my bonus) and I am toying with the idea of getting a Yak which will mean I have to move the Cap. Course right now I have no idea what I am doing.

The Cap is gone with this exception. I had 4 planes sitting here which had been scavenged for parts for other planes, in particular wings. I have 4 sets of Cap 91 wings plus other parts coming in a couple days, so I will have 4 shiny new Cap 91" available.

The 91 was the more popular plane, since there's really no other top performing 3d plane at that size. The 85" Cap was a good plane but a poor seller, you would not believe the number of times where I suggested it and people said "I just don't like Caps".

If you want a 91" Cap call me on Tuesday, they should be available.

I agree, that mid-wing is awesome! Only complaints I have with the Kap are, the lack of a cowl ring mounted cowl, and pocket hinges... I know now I have gotten just plain picky!!

Its probably a good idea not to do pocket hinges on your 50cc birds, as I would GO BROKE, it has to be the absolute worst part of ARF assembly LoL.

Well I timed myself hinging the last plane I built, a 50cc Sukhoi which is typical of any of our planes. It took me 1 hour and 10 minutes;

30 minutes to prepare all the parts by taping across each hole, clean out the hole with an exacto, and slit the tape along the V edge.
15 minutes to glue the hinges into one side. I don't count drying time.
10 minutes to attach the mating surfaces
15 minutes to pull the tape away, put a drop of oil on each knuckle, and clean up.

It makes things go a lot faster if you have all your stuff out and prepared; blue masking tape, xacto with a few spare sharp blades, gorilla glue or probond polyurethane, toothpicks, small paper cups.

You should also make some kind of a stand to support the parts while you are working on them. Just a piece of cardboard with some slots cut in it to hold the ailerons/elevators and rudder while the glue dries. Nothing fancy is required.

I hinge mine almost the same way, but I still DONT LIKE IT! You forgot time to seal hinge line hehehehe. I am sure I am not the only one who would LOVE to see the pocket hinges on the 50cc birds..
But alas I will continue to clean glue and play with masking tape...
