Default RE: Sig 1/4 Clipped Cub (Which engine?)

Yeah, I kind'a had a love/hate relationship w/ the Sig Cub until it was done. Now it's one of my favorite planes. It has about 100 flights on it and has proven top be very sturdy and reliable. It does a very pretty flat spin at full power and full opposite aileron once in the spin. It stops rotation within 1/2 turn by neutralizing ailerons/elevator and reversing rudder.

An interesting thing is that using standard servos (one for each control surface, except rudder) has proven adequate. I fly mainly IMAC/Pattern type planes, so usually push the Cub around quite aggressively, yet the standard servos have been up to the job.

Here are a couple more pics to keep your juices flowing.....
