With the information given we have no idea which one you are looking for. Almost every major model Co. makes a Piper Cub. I own the Carl Goldberg kit. It is an easy build and can be built either Clipped Wing or standard. Here is a link for that one.

this would be my first kit how do you think i would handle it. Do u think i could handle the calrgoldberg. and how does it handle in the sky have u ever had any problems with it. I've been lookin at the Piper J-3 Cub 40 Kit wich do u think would be easier to build and fly. Thanks Nathan

I think that Goldberg kit would be a good "first kit". It goes together well and without dificulty. It also fly's wonderfully. It is only semi scale so some of the common "bad habits" scale cubs have are a non issue with this kit. If you are still fairly new to this build it with the full wing span as aposed to the clipped wing version.

i am in the covering stage of my gb cub and it is also my first build.it is not super difficult but it isnt super easy.it makes you scratch your head sometimes but i wouldnt enjoy it if it didnt challenge you a bit.
