OK 007.5 gained access to the SSW Skunk works area 617 and managed a few shots of the Cub..

The Cub in her plastic wrapper, it is one long big model..!

Nice big MLG wheels...

OK NLG

Secret device..... actually it is one of the wing bolts...terrible...!!

ESC mounted under fan in air-stream

Fan mounted al la kero blow lamp style

The modifications are being kept to a minimum (DT will like that one), but from an airframe perspective two elevator servo's rather than a "Y" push rod and just the hole cutting for the ESC and making M3 / 4-40 push rods rather than the 2-56 ones supplied.

A new tray for the original 1+ liter tank area, reinforced MLG mountings so the wheels do not fall off on the return to Mother Earth with assistance of course of our friend Mr. Gravity. That really is about it... :'(

I will do a build thread when it is finished as it is a cheap entry model for HP EDF.. >:(

Great speed with this setup n vertical was good as well. Now will be the time to move down the list of other EDF conversionsssss.
