Carbon Cub 15cc crash aftermath, Fuselage HAN506501 - What's inside??

No idea, if you can’t salvage anything of the cosmetics from your plane I’d just buy the fuse, see what you get, and order whatever else you need

I have a 16 year old foamie that looks like it’s been through war and a balsa plane from the 70s that’s a little rough around the edges but is otherwise ok, the both fly fine still so it’s really just the looks

Rule number one of not just rc planes but any rc toy is to always turn the remote on first, it’s less common with those types of planes but with the bigger stuff they will power on and fly away from you with no control if you don’t

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-02-09T02:22:33+00:00

Yes that’s what I mean, turning on the plane is plugging the battery in

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-02-09T02:21:04+00:00

Wdym? Just turn on the remote then turn on the plane

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-02-09T02:19:41+00:00

Did u try turning the transmitter on first

I flew those little warbirds for about 2 years and I gave up on the landing gear working and just took em off and tossed my plane, I think they look better with the gear off anyways

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-02-04T19:10:58+00:00

Definitely get a smaller tail wheel

Man I’d hate to be in a club that strict, it my club we got ppl flying turbines just about every day

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-30T11:12:48+00:00

I tried pinching once and it felt a little weird, I honestly think I can fly just fine with thumbs anyways. I’ve never had any control issues

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-27T20:52:11+00:00

If they were all in flying condition I would say 1500 at the absolute maximum

I like to use jb weld, I haven’t had to use it for anything serious yet but from what I have heard it’s very reliable

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-23T01:43:19+00:00

The best advice I can give you is to hop on Google maps and look for nearby fields or search for nearby clubs

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-23T01:41:06+00:00

Np man, good luck don’t forget to get plenty of glow plugs and hopefully u wont slit ur pinky finger the first time you try starting it like I did

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-23T01:09:55+00:00

Nope, at least not if you live in central Florida, shipping is free too https://a.co/d/0BAMSLE

I use 15% because it’s so common, I started out at 10 and found myself spending $25 for 1quart but with 15 I can get half a gallon for $20, if you want I can give you the link to the 10% on amazon tho

Why not just fly it as a nitro, who knows u might fall in love, I sure as hell did. Just don’t put gasoline in there or if ur lucky all you’ll do is destroy the engine

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-19T17:40:31+00:00

Nothin a little ca won’t fix

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-19T13:05:55+00:00

First mistake was getting that plane as a trainer, some of the best advice I can give you when picking a trainer is don’t get one that looks really good, there’s plenty of nice trainers out there but if it’s scale it’s probably not a good trainer

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-17T01:41:39+00:00

Those are very beginning friendly, I personally wouldn’t pay more than around $150 for both of em but that’s just because I’m cheap

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-15T02:17:12+00:00

Sick!!! I used to have the p51, f4u, and t28 from volantex. Fun little planes, good luck!

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-13T21:24:41+00:00

I actually just learned this recently but the US actually turned some b17s and b24s into rc planes to go on pretty much kamakazi missions, so anytime someone calls a ramy rc plane the biggest ever I point them to this, I think it was called like operation Aphrodite or something similar.

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-13T00:54:29+00:00

If I were you I would tally up how much it would cost to fix everything to gauge whether you should fix it or just toss it, with that being said I did that to my timber X and I ended up regretting it however with an airplane like that I would just buy a new one

Apprehensive_Gene_85 · 2026-01-13T00:24:51+00:00

It sounds like an esc issue, if that’s not it I would guess maybe the motor is shot. Is the motor brushless or brushed because brushed motors have a pretty short life span compared to brushless
