I say go for the Cub. I built one a few years ago and it was a lot of fun. You may want to look around here on the RCU classifieds or an online auction site to see if you can find an older kit (pre-Lanier) still in the box. I've heard that some of the newer kits have pretty bad parts cutting and fit. Maybe that has changed now that Hobbico owns Goldberg, who knows.
