Default World Models Piper J-3 Cub – 48

Been flying my WM 48 cub for about 6 week and just love how it flys on a old Satio 50. The building was the quickest on any arf I have build and the wood,glue joints were excellent and the covering was flawless.

The only building tips I could give are I used about 1 1/2 sticks of triangle stock to brace up the fire wall, landing gear block and the plywood bulk heads along with the servo tray.

The only other Mod I did was after attaching the wing the first time the bolts were to close to the fuse side(well for my big fingers anyway) so I made longer aluminum strut attachment strips and drilled holes farther up the struts arms.

This ARF model get a 9 out of 10 in my book.
