There really is nothing like a “Cub”! The C.G. version retains the honest, easy to fly qualities that made the full size airplane famous.
With the standard long wing, the model is a very graceful, realistic flyer. It’s aerobatic performance tends to be big,round, and slow.
Like the full size airplane, the model can be modified into an aerobatic version byshortening the wings. This “Clipped Wing” option
is a thrilling aerobatic machine that will provide outstanding performance, including point rolls, inside and outside
maneuvers, snaps and spins.
Building is easy, but to prevent simple mistakes, the step-by-step instructions should be followed. Many a modeler has made two
right fuselage sides instead of one right and one left as a results of not following the directions.
The Cub can be finished in any of the unlimited color schemes of of the original airplane.We show three popular types; standard,
sport, and military. Color scheme information's provided later in the instructions.
We’re sure that you will enjoy countless hours of flying fun with your Goldberg Cub, just as generations of pilots have had with
theirs!
