Default Re: Harold krier Aerobatic Cub

Hey Jeremy!
Looks like they raised the bar again on you guys at the etoc again.
I have about 10 flights on the plane with the scratch built wing. I built a little anhedral into the wing and it flies just as well inverted. point rolls and rolls pretty quick. wont waterfall just yet, but I have the cg pretty far forward still. It WILL harrier roll though.

If it's still around next time we get together, you'll get a turn on the sticks.
I was thinking about this the other night....what was the maneuver you were doing with Elie's plane in St. Louis? got any video? I came back home and tried a few times. Came to the conclusion it works best with an edge.

The Krier Cub flew for the first time this year...yesterday. It has a new DA 85, and what a combo! Dale Lathem sold me the engine and made a pimp mount that matches the firewall exactly. Again, this is a replica of Harold Krier's Cub. Harold lost his life in '71 during spin testing. Was a mentor to Charlie Hillard and others. If you're good enough, you can win the Krier aerobatic cup....just like Soucy, Scholl, Loudenslager, Weeks, Wagstaff, Chapman, Chambliss, Martin...and others.
