Description
The DPR Hyper Cub Kit Plane, part number DPR1008E, is an electric-powered model aircraft kit based on DPR's rubber-powered park flyer from the 1980s. Re-engineered in 2017, the design can be converted for three-channel radio control of the rudder, elevator and throttle. Its laser-cut construction parts are intended to make assembly accessible to beginners and younger builders with some assistance. The kit includes the main materials for building the airframe, while the adhesive, tissue paste and dope must be supplied separately.
What's Included
- Laser-cut balsa and plywood parts
- Wire undercarriage and wheels
- Full-size building plan and sandpaper sheet
- Push rods for the elevator and rudder
- Tissue covering material
- Protective clear plastic sheet for the building plan
- Step-by-step building manual with illustrated colour radio control conversion instructions
- Hyper Cub waterslide decals
The pre-shaped undercarriage wire, wheels, pre-cut windscreen surround and push rods are supplied for the build. The instructions cover both the standard construction and the electric radio control conversion, giving builders a route from the kit assembly to a three-channel model. Tissue is provided for covering, although a suitable covering material such as Oralight can be used instead. Glues, tissue paste and dope are not included.
Required to Complete
- Electric motor, with the Roxxy 22-16-25 suggested
- 12A electronic speed controller
- GWS-type slow-fly 7 x 6-inch propeller
- Two 4.5g ultra-nano servos, with the HS-40 suggested
- 2S LiPo battery rated at 350-400mAh
- Suitable covering material if not using the supplied tissue
The suggested electric setup uses a 2S LiPo battery measuring 50 x 10 x 27mm, together with the motor, speed controller, propeller and two servos listed above. Builders will also need their own adhesives and finishing materials to complete the model. The kit is supplied with a shipping weight of 0.43kg.
