This is the first video I've seen of one these engines flying, absolute pleasure. Usually they are only shown bench mounted for demonstration. Thanks again for showing this in it's designed environment
@@Ride-Fly trying to get back into the hobby for the last fue years, used to fly as a teen in the 90's. Sadly weather here, and life, job, family ect does get in the way. But it's fun building and dreaming. LoL. Hello from little New Zealand
Great sounding engines, I have 2 off them converted to run on pump gas, one is in a toprc spitfire the other ones in a sukhoi su26, up in the sky is where they belong.
I have the same plane powered by the FF240 Pegasus. The 320 came out shortly after my engine was delivered so I don't know if I would have gone with this larger model. I've only flown mine from floats and like this one, it has power to burn. Flew it about 5 miles from a chase boat with a Sony 8mm camcorder on board. The sound was very realistic at part throttle. You might notice that there is never any sound with drone videos due to the howling fans. I recall having to move the firewall back slightly to get the propeller in the right place relative to the cowl. Great to see this one flying. I gather he was eventually able to slow it down enough to safely land....
Great engine. Way overpowered Cub. News reports indicate that it went rougue, caught up with, and shot down to full scale jet fighters, later that day.
Please never start this engine with an electric starter. The connection rods are very sensitive and like to kick out when the combustion chamber is flooded. Make sure that the cylinders have an ignitable mixture and then start by hand. Close the choke and turn the propeller by hand a few rotations with throttle fully open, then start glowing and the engine will start at the first try. The connection rods are not more available as a spare part, be careful!
Slow that thing down. 😂 You'll fly the right wing slap off of it. I have the exact same airplane and I love it. Nice engine on it just don't wreck it because of too much throttle.
Way to much power for a 1/4 scale. That engine is the perfect size for a 1/3 scale. I had the twin cylinder cousin to that 320 in the OS160 twin on a BUSA 1/4 scale Cub. That was a little overpowered as well. Take-offs were accomplished at 1/3 throttle and cruise at half. It was perfect on floats.
Beautiful model and the perfect engine for the plane, even if it is a little overpowered lol. Looks like a Sig 1/4 scale kit maybe?? I built the Sig 1/4 scale clipped wing cub, very nice kits.
Wow! The power to weight of this model is about 3 or 4 times.greater than the real thing even with a Lycoming O320, which you don't see in Cubs, but on heavier PA18s. Would you limit RPMs in this beautiful model to half, to mimic more accurately the real thing's performance and sound?
Thank you for not making it electric. I am tired of seeing electic models. If you do not have a bunch of batteries, there is a long charge time. They last a short time, and the batteries produce solid waste. Electricity is easily the worse fuel for any vehicle, even model ones.
I agree, I own both electric and petrol models, enjoy both but you can't go past the ease of use with electric, batteries don't take long at all to charge and no mess
Slow the dang thing down will ya. Would sound better and look more scale flying. A better choice would have been the little brother to this motor the ff-240. Looks great and ya did a nice job on it

Fantastic mate. Beautiful aircraft and engine. My favorite RC Aeroplane by far.
That's awesome. Sounds like a tiny motorcycle too
I love my 81" Cub with a Saito .62
This is nuts!
This Piper is so beautiful! Nice flight! ☺️
Really great model, sounds awesome!! Only problem is in a full scale cub you solo from the rear seat!
What a sound! Fantastic!

Took off like an Extra 300!

Love the Cub, and that engine makes it perfect👍
Nice to see real engines in these models …. Electric motors have their advantages but they are just not the same 👍
PERFEITO, NO BRASIL ESSE AVIÃO SE CHAMA PAULISTINHA, FABRICADO EM SÃO PAULO ! VERY GOOD PIPER 👍👍 🇧🇷
embora semelhantes nao eram absolutamente iguais e ha outros tambem - Decathlon, Citabria etc, com o mesmo desenho basico....
The idling sounds like someone farting in the bath...😁😁😁
Oh that is adorable!!! love the engine. My J3 is only 1/4 scale with a 1.20 Gemini.

*too much
Wow.. this is so cool 👍

Super cool. The bubbly sounding exhaust is a bit comical though. I'll bet a 4 in to 1 would sound great
Быстрей настоящего летит
Very attractive aircraft
Beautiful

Very powerful! Looks like it could be a bit heavy too lol
Very nice 👌 😇🙏🎣
JA VOEI NUM DESSE DE VERDADE 👍🇧🇷
3800$ ain't a bad price. real cub is the most fun i've had flying.

@@CharlesBerryamericanlinkage price?
Too fast ?
Nice
A friend of mine have a 2,60 M Cub with the O.S 160 4 T 2 cylinder engine which is 1/2 power of this engine...
Why does it sound like a bubble mower?
Awesome
I've not see a landing😢
Adorei vôo perfeito qual motor 4cilindros usa J3
Who make that Pegasus engine?
OS Max I believe
Whats the prop size?
When I paused the video it appears to be a 20x10 as labeled on the prop
What size prop?
Im not sure
20x10
Perfeito.
Tô fabricando um.
Escala:1/5,5
I flew the same aircraft but with Saito 15cc 4stoke motor. Great aircraft.
i had a ft twin 160 one time on a super cub boy i missed the plane
Too much engine power for a Cub...
who cares its an rc plane not a real one 🙄 u must be fun at parties

Babbling in the background sucks
It's part of the hobby.
You sound annoying
Awesome
I fly same model....powered by O.S 70 4 sroke engine....flies well
