Default J-3 cub recommendations please

Hi, I'm interested in a J-3 Cub. Can you please recommend one? I like big wings, 65-80" wingspan. Oh, also must be an ARF. Thanks,

The Hanger 9 100" is a great flyer if you like big wings. I have a G-23 in mine, and a buddy has a saito 150 in his. Both are great combos.

Also if money is not an object, Dave Patrick has a very nice yellow super Cub coming out. I saw it at a show, and it really looks great.

Cruz send me an e-mail at [email protected]. I have a World Models J3 Cub-48 that I want to sell. It has a 71 inch wing span and it will fly on a 40 size engine. It is an ARF that I put together and have only flown 5 times. It flies great just not my cup of tea. I like biplanes and am trying to fund another project. If you want to contact me today send me e-mail at [email protected] as I am at work guarding the country today. I will not be able to check my home e-mail until tomorrow.

Cruzo, trroscoe is correct, the World Models Cub is an awesome plane, excellent quality, great flier. Here's a pic of mine (the clipped wing version)

I also have the WM Clipped Cub. I put a Magnum .52 FS on it and have a good time flying it around. The struts was a pain at first but I've gotten use to dealing with them now. I still get looks when I bring it out to the field.

By the way, I got the red one; in case you didn't see my av.

I have a cub from Great Planes with fabric cover. This plane is sweet, you should take a look. Great with a 61 fx or a 91 four stroke
