Default RE: Sig 1/6th J3 Cub

It's a shame not to fly this one! Mine is five years old now. Had a Fox 35 on it, but it was too loud. Has a Saito 30 now which is just right.

Covered in yellow Solartex. HS 81 micro servos all around with pull pull on rudder and elevator. Weighs a little over 4 pounds. Slow flybys and touch and goes are about as good as it gets. Doesn't like wind though.

I added 1/32" shear webs to the wing spars. The wing struts are functional and must be used for flight.

I think this plane won the 1959 Nationals in Scale. It's one of my favorite planes.
