The package came without any delay and the contents were well packaged. No damage to any parts. Assembly was fun and not really challenging. Having built many airplanes from scratch in the '50 and '60 with balsa and silk is perhaps why I found the assembly to be easy. The end result is a beautiful aircraft.

This plane is spot on! Worth the price tag. I went with an Admiral Gp10, a Gecko 85a esc, and a 4000mah 6s pack. Unlimited vertical. 15 minutes of flight with the smallest pack recommended. Five stars from me guys! I've been out of the hobby for over 20 years so I am glad I did my research. Couldn't ask for a better built plane even for a few hundred more bucks! Big thanks from Nate!!

I tried my cub for the first time today. It was eventfull. The left aileron servoe striped out on the takeoff roll. It did takeoff rather gracefully, but once in the air I was hit with radio interference. The plane started to roll right. I tried to correct it but nothing happened. I tried full deflection on the aieron stick and that just leveled it and caused it to roll hard left. I screamed that I didn't have control and reduced the throttle to idle. She then started to leave out. The only thing was that I was only approximately 50 feet high. With the power at ide, she was coming down. I got semi-lucky though. She landed on her gear, fairly hard, but no damage, other then the struts, was had. I brought it home, looked at it, and tried to order struts. MISTAKE!!! Motion had them out of stock. Now I'm unsure as to when, or if, they will come into stock so I may order them. Only time will tell.

Etc me start by saying this kit is AWSOME! It was well built, well packaged, and just an overall beauty. In fact, it's so pretty I had to make it ugly. I added a bomb drop mechanism between the gear. It looks awesome. She's a bit large, but if you make fun of her, she'll drop a load on ya.

Haven’t started on the build yet but it looks good. No shipping problems and no damage. All extra parts packed inside and secured. Well pleased.
