 |  Carden Cap 232 Wing Build Thread!!!!
Hey guys how are yall doing today. I am going to start this thread and hopefully add some pictues by this weekend. Recently I acquired a brand new Carden Cap that was built perfectly. There were some things done to the wings by the past owner that I just dont think will hold up to the type of flying I do and will be doing with this Cap. I'm not going into specifics about them to keep from bashing the past owner. So I will make this a Carden Wing Build thread. I will be adding pictures to this thread as my builder gets them to me. His name is John Monahan. He is a top notch professional builder that builds with really good rates. His building is second to none and is also a recommended Aeorotech builder. His shop is in Opelika, AL inside a Hobby Shop, and does work for folks all over the world. If anyone is close to him or needs something built by him let me know and I can get you his numbers. He does crate up and ship his builds if you live out of town from him.

His last name is spelled Monaghan and here are a few pics of his current project. His work is amazing and he is working on several new projects that will be even better than this FW-190!

Great thread, My pop was telling me about this guy the other day... Thanks for sharing. Keep the pics coming! As far as Carden goes, I had an old busted up Carden Extra I got from a guy and one of the things I needed was a new canopy. I called up Carden and were very helpful with providing me the part I needed (Even gave me a free hat!). In fact they said if I needed any info at all they would be more than happy to help out. There's a guy I met this past year stationed down at Moody AFB that had busted up his 40% Carden Edge, he was going to write it off and just buy a new kit, he told me Dennis talked him into just replacing the busted parts and he rebuilt it instead! Great Folks... |
