Hey Jim,

Found two sets NIB on Ebay a few months back. Great floats!


Thanks Dave.

I really like the World Models Cub. I am really impressed with the build quality and covering job for a $130 ARF. Can't wait to fly it!

Lance-

Just curious how you mounted the floats on your cub. Are the struts/etc home made or a commercial set?

Did you use the existing main gear mounts for the front? How about the aft strut mounting - did you add an area of reinforcement in the mounting location?

Sorry for all the questions, but I'm aquiring a WM Cub and will be immediately mounting my floats on it -and there's no sense reinventing the wheel!

MANY Thanks!

Steve
