Status: offline 		Get this ARF, and put your time into the details... you'll be glad you did. Here's one at our club. He put over 100 rivets in it, installed scale grab handles in the rear of the fuse, scale landing gear, turned the fuel stick on top of the cowl into the on/off switch, installed scale Cub speed wheel pants, Scale spring loaded landing gear. He has a couple of full scale pictures he followed, and really pulled it off. This isn't the best picture to show the details, but it's all I got right now.

Compared to my Sig 1/4 Cub, it seems a little smaller than 1/4 scale, but with a little effort, I don't see why it couln't be turned into a nice sport-scale model. And, oh, it's covered in real fabric (Solartex, I think), which is always nice on a Cub.
