super flying models piper cub

[Guest]

Hi I was wondering if someone has the instructions to the model.

First build and no instructions in boxed, second hand.

Hi James, what is the make and scale of the kit? Is it the Minicraft 1/48 kit or the Guillows one? Or another make?

Just may help if we know what type etc to narrow down the instruction sheet.

If it is the 1/32 Revell Piper PA-18 SuperCub then there is a PDF here: http://manuals.hobbico.com/rmx/85-5483.pdf

James is this a wooden RC model, shows it aircraft in yellow on the box? If so then this maybe what you're after: http://www.jperkinsdistribution.co.uk/downloads/5500340a.pdf

James, after having a further look, yours should be covered by the version in the link above. Model number 867 is the .40 class. As for the revision of the A after 867 I am afraid I don't know-sorry about that.

It look like the one from jp , but its a Artf kit the one i have .

But it seems to be the same plane so might be able to start.

But i have seen a member on this forum who had made the actual kit i have.

So hopefully he will get back to me sent him a msg.

Next time ill buy a new kit to build

Thank you all for the help greatly appreciated

Ok nearly done it, just stuck figuring out how the tail wheel fits. Any ideas guys?

Also for wing bolts I guess I need to drill wing for holes.

Cheers

The drawings show the tail-wheel attached via a collar and two screws. What does the tail-wheel look like? As for the wings, it does look like you need to drill to attach.

I think I'll stick to not rudder tail wheel,don't wanna drill rudder do I need to cut cover we're rudder glues to allerions, or glue direct on.

[eddiesolo]

If it is the fixed tailwheel it should have holes on that are marked for screwing, fits into/onto base of fuselage IRC, not rudder. The other variety is the steerable one and that fits into a holder-or something like it. As for fitting the rudder to the ailerons-not sure, check to see if the assembly fits via screws, could be from underneath or there is a slide assembly. I wouldn't have thought you would have needed to cut the covering to attach the rudder assembly-this is what this model is about-pre-done so no covering and doping.

My boomerang was so easy to put together.

More of a challenge I suppose.
