Sig 1/5 Scale Clipped Wing Cub
My Sig 1/5 cub project is about 2 planes down on the list to finish. Lately I have been thinking of moving away from the traditional full wing version with an OS .52 4 stroke and going with a clipped wing. I would move up to an OS .70 4 stroke that is presently being unused. Has anybody built this Sig kit with the clipped wing? If so, let's hear your details about it?

All a person can say is it makes it more responsive, moves a little faster land a little hotter but it wil have it limitations a Cub is A Cub fly and enjoy.
And the parts for the clip wing are in the kit, some people make both

RE: Sig 1/5 Scale Clipped Wing Cub
I was allso thinking of making a clipped wing for my Aniversery Cub. Right know when I roll the plane it takes a pretty large circle in the sky. I am hopping that this will be reduced with the clipped wing. The plane is a blast to fly, right know it is on floats for the snow. Just wondering what the clipped wing was on the sig, on my Goldberg it is 67 1/2 inches. I have a Magnum 70 RFS on it, alot of power for the plane, but nice to have when I put the floats on it. I still need to get a knew cowl and the right windshield for the plane. Here is a pic of mine.
