    Great build. I’ve built several of these back when the plans came out. Great flyers if you don’t get heavy. I’m still flying and building gas large ships. Today’s DLE and DA motors should be fantastic. Terry&ThePirates

    Andy, this is going to be great, I hope that it does fly well, I have a Yellow Aircraft Cap 10B I would love a Cap 21 especially that size. Looking forward to this build!

    I too love flying the CAP 21’s. They are a simple, elegant design. Can’t wait to see her fly!! I just thought of this, If you coordinate a gathering of chipmunks, I’ll surely venture up north. When you build your Texan, could you possibly do a video on covering that aircraft? You do such a good job with the compound curves on the fuselages, that I think quite a few members of your audience would a appreciate a warbird being covered with monokote or whatever shrinkable material you like these days. Thanks man!

    Way cool project!! Interesting that it has that airfoil too. Same as on full scale Extra's as well. I'm aware of one ARF designer that has a new model being manufactured with that airfoil because he says that it "breaks loose" a lot easier than the more conventional airfoils we use. I was 21 when that plan was published and remember that article. Never saw one built / fly so will watch with great interest!!

    Thank you for explaining the hot wire tool building. I have always wanted to try to make a cutter. I am doing a cap 21 arf. Please continue with showing your build. I would love to watch.

    Hi Andy,
    You have convinced me that I will be able to cut the foam wing, stab, and rudder for the A3J Vigilante project. Thanks for the info on the cutting bow and the voltage and amperage as a start. I bought a long kit off Ebay and Fiberglass Specialties had all the fiberglass parts needed. I will check for some foam companies near me, if not will try Foam Factory. You and the family stay safe.

    Andy, I forgot to ask but are you keeping a list of the wood sizes and amount you are using for the Cap 21? If so, could I get you to email them to me as I am having a hard time figuring out the amount of wood to order. Thanks.
