I assumed this was the same fuselage that appeared at some shows and that the testing and configuring of the floor, seats, W/B, controls etc., was going to end up in the final version. Perhaps I am wrong. Kind of a bummer that the first build is getting scrapped, and parts kept for a two place...

Oh sad, not the update I was hoping to see... Any further details about the hurdles that will be required to make this 4S fly? I have been patiently waiting in the queue with a deposit for this kit to complete and deliver via Javron assuming the/this prototype flew. Is there another aircraft...

Any progress on this project? Looking forward to the next update...

Well, That's a nice tease for motivation... I don't mind seeing the fruits of your labors as I wait for this prototype to come together!

Any progress reports on this project? What changes and configuration lessons learned? Curious how you are going to lay out the panel, pedals and stick(s)? Any cowl considerations being made at this point?

Being a busy shop known for quality is always a good problem! The friction of finding quality labor, materials and production space has been no joke for any small business I imagine. Jay seems to be more of a shop phone guy than an email guy from my experience. Mike picks up the phone a...

Adding the new Rotax 916is to this list. 200lbs, Avgas, Mogas, E10 capable. Air and water cooled, EFI, EMS, etc. with a 2000hr TBO. Checks a lot of boxes. I have no qualms buying my fuel at costco if that becomes an option.

I would assume Rotax and CC are trying to make these engines and aircraft appeal to DOD buyers as well. With rotax already in use for several UAVs, and the military preferring to train maintainers on a common power plant... This will probably become more common to see in many new flying...

I want efficiency. Have been flying an 0-540 LOP after installing an EMS and fuel flow meter and it just makes sense after going from 12-15GPH to 8-10GPH. I do not see fuel prices coming down over the course of this aircraft's lifespan. So, mogas LOP is one of my goals. The EFII option also...

Wonderful feedback from all. Very much appreciate and respect this insight. Obviously, I am chasing after reliability and efficiency not speed and power for power's sake, which makes the detailed notes about these options very helpful. I have a request in to Thunderbolt, AC Aero and will add...

Charlie, Got an 0540 in my Cherokee 235 (1550 empty, 2900 gross weight), but it is Very heavy (+370lbs). Its a great engine, but still seems to large for this. Feels like there is a breakpoint here where the big 12gal/hr engine would just be building too much plane. StewartB, is 308lbs an...

Hi StewartB, This post is in reference to an ongoing thread about the new Javron 4 place cub. Several members, including myself with a down payment, are on the waitlist for this new Javron kit. Very similar to other Javron Cub Clones, but with an experimental clean-sheet redesign of the...

Not wanting to hijack a great thread that has already been started on the Javron Four Place Cub (4S)...But needing a place to get more educated feedback on potential engine options that have been discussed on this new experimental platform. I'll start with some eligible engines, and some...

Thanks for the update @billrusk ! This seat configuration makes for a very versatile and large space. Will it be sleepable? Now that you have sorted out the revisions, do you think that they will also be adopted by Jay? Also, will your build be using a performance STOL type flap from Keller &...

Would this work instead? (not cheap, but has a quote builder and live pricing tool for the fiberglass composition) https://www.professionalplastics.com/Showa-Aircraft

Hi Bill, Thanks for starting this thread. I have been on the list with Jay since the spring for one of these 4S kits. Looking forward to seeing the next round of progress and refinements you make.

Hey ACD17931, Can you report more on the FL200 from AC Aero? Is it cub capable, and would you consider it on this project? Been lusting after their CAD animation and spec sheets, but its almost unbelievable. Would be a really neat capability to burn JetA. I know they are taking deposits, but...
