My "WM Evergreen Clipped Wing Cub" just might have been made by the same people who make the Blackhorse Cub. I've seen one Blackhorse cub and it looked identical except for the length of the wing. My Cub sucked. It had a couple of fatal design/construction flaws.

I've recently completed a Phoenix Decathlon that flies great. I saw one maidened just days before I maidened mine and learned a very useful lesson. Do not firewall the sucker to takeoff. If you're a "slam it and get the takeoff over with" kind of guy, skip the Decathlon. The rudder is effective as heck in the air, but before it's got airspeed on the ground seems to be ineffective. Just advance the throttle for takeoff, don't firewall it, and the rudder is no problem. I spent the last session with mine, doing touch and goes. Really was doing landing and goes. Slowed after touchdown until the tail came down. Just to see if it was going to give problems. It didn't. Of course, just because I was doing touch and goes, I still didn't firewall the throttle for the "goes" part.

There are a couple of fliers at my field who have the same opinion of cubs. They won't mess with them any more. Say they're lousy ground handlers.
