RE: Great Planes Cub
I'm currently building the clipped wing version of this kit and have built and fly the 76" wingspan also. This kit was the first R/C kit I built, so if I could put it together and actually get it off the ground, it must be a good one!! 
The full wing Cub will definitely fly and handle on the ground like a Cub! Once I learned how to use the rudder on take offs and not to rush it into the air, it was a very nice plane to fly. The full winger won't be as aerobatic as the clipped version, but if you like 'slow scale' flying, it'll be a lot of fun. My full wing version uses a Saito .56 for power, and I'm planning to install a Saito .72 in my clipped wing "hot rod" version.
