Overview

The Piper J-3 Cub is a small, simple, light aircraft that was built between 1937 and 1947 by Piper Aircraft. It was intended for flight training, but became one of the most popular and best-known light aircraft of all time. The Cub's simplicity, affordability and popularity often invokes comparisons to the Ford Model T automobile. FMS captures the classic looks of the J3 Piper Cub with this 1400mm EPO model. Pre-painted in Cub yellow, with scale touches such as a pilot figure and seats, clear hard molded windows, engine detailing, scale landing gear and wing struts, brings this model of the J3 Cub to a whole new level.

Key Features

  • New type of EPO foam is lighter to save weight, increase flight duration, and increase performance
  • The position of the main wing has been moved slightly and the main wing has been updated. The change in design and position of the main wing means lead ballast is no longer added by the factory to maintain the center of gravity (CG)
  • The position of the cockpit has also changed slightly for improved CG and flight characteristics
  • The fuselage has been updated and improved
  • Due to all the changes above the plane is lighter and flight characteristics have improved. Overall weight savings is about 5% compared to the pre-V2 version plane
  • Scale details including clear glass canopy, hand painted pilot figure, multi-point wing struts, and authentic Piper Cub graphics
  • Large, spring dampened landing gear help smooth out rough landings
  • Two blade prop for performance and durability
  • Steerable tail wheel makes it easy to taxi on the ground and makes it fun for touch and go practice
  • Main wing easily removes for easy transportation
  • Rugged plastic engine cowl
  • High wing design provides very stable platform at slow speeds, while also allowing for acrobatics such as loops, stall turns, rolls, reverse half Cubans, and more
