What motor do you have on the U Can Do? I have a couple of DLE 30s I like a lot.
Here is a couple of my Planes. This a Giant U Can Do 3-D. It has a 4 hp gas motor, and is my favorite plane to fly.  This is my son laying under the wing of my 35% Carden Edge. It has a 10 hp gas motor, and a 104" wing span. I've never been able to get comfortable flying it because of the $ I have in it.

This is the type of flying I do. Not quit as good as this guy but i can do most of what he can. I meet Andy at the PRO BRO in nashville a few years ago awesome guy.
If anyone is around Liepers Fork this last weekend of September 22 through the 25th go out and check out the PROBRO event there. They have night flying and their is always some awesome 3D pilots there. It is a blast also. It is unlike any other fly in or get together i have ever been to. Especially during the iron man competition.

Just wondering insteading adding 2 more motors on it, what about putting a couple of bigger motors on?
We had a guy that came to one of our fly-in's and he built planes like this. They flew great to!
I have a JR 2.4 radio and can fly all my planes with just the one TX, just have to buy the RX to go into the planes.
Get - R - Done and post pictures of it in the air.
Allen  You all are already making me want to git r done even more now. Then I can have pics and aerial videos to post here and brag  As for the Tx I am just going to get another 72mHz because that's the Rx I have in the plane, don't want to spend the extra money on a new 2.4 Rx and Tx, trying to keep it affordable for now. A 2.4 conversion is a possibility for the future though.
Leave the two motors in place and just claim it's a C-123 or a C-160.

Heck no man!  It wouldn't be right. The Herc is one of my favorite planes, next to the C-5 galaxy...
oh crap...
I just gave myself an idea like a virus... now I'm going to have to build a C-5 too. OK I will build just the plane, and leave it in storage for a long time till I have the money for the electronics to put inside.
