Do you guys fly with the CARDS? If so, maybe I'll see you in June or July, at their two flyins.

Status: offline 		This Cub was my third kit. I modified the strip ailerons into "scale" ones. I had never had a model with flaps, and it was an easy conversion to add them, so I did. They added more fun to flying the model.

You can't tell from the picture, but i made the J3 into a Super Cub.
