Characteristics
RC model of the popular J-3 Cub aircraft with a wingspan of 2.1m in 1:5 scale. It is designed to provide the classic look of the original and a comfortable flying experience with modern features. It features the advantages of a lightweight, rigid and strong wooden structure with a combination of balsa and plywood (lite-ply), which is coated with the original UltraCote® film. The wing is two-piece, with a mounting on a tubular reinforcement in the fuselage, for easy transport and storage. The model has a lot of scale details, including transparent windows, wing struts and more. The landing gear includes classic wheels and covers. Optionally, wheel covers or floats can be installed (sold separately). The model is suitable for a wide range of intermediate to experienced pilots!

The Plug-N-Play® version requires no glue for assembly. It features four factory-installed Spektrum A6380 digital metal gear servos, a Spektrum Avian 70A Smart Lite ESC with 4S - 6S LiPo power options and Smart telemetry support, and a 4260-480Kv outrunner brushless motor.
With nearly 20,000 aircraft built between 1938 and 1947, and over 5,000 still registered and flying, the J-3 Cub remains one of Piper's most iconic and beloved aircraft. Originally designed as a light trainer, it has undergone many modifications, including shortened-wing versions such as the Super Cub and Carbon Cub.

Skill Level 2 – Requires some experience
Skill level 2 aircraft like this model are best suited for RC pilots who already have some experience and skills in building, setting up and flying similar class models. You should have experience with models like the E-flite Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m, Turbo Timber SWS 2.0m, Carbon-Z Cessna 150T 2.1m, Carbon-Z Cub SS 2.1m or other models.

Smart™ technology
The exclusive Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart ESC provides a range of real-time telemetry data, including motor RPM, current draw, flight battery voltage and more, via a compatible Spektrum receiver and transmitter equipped with Spektrum AirWare™ technology (DX6e, DX8e, DX6 G2/3, DX8 G2, DX9, NX6, 8 and 10, iX12, iX20 and more) during flight.

Plug-N-Play version
The Plug-N-Play (PNP) version comes with a factory-installed power system and servos ready to connect to a compatible receiver of your choice (sold separately), plus a transmitter and batteries you supply (also sold separately). Simply install the receiver, complete the final assembly, and you're ready to fly!

Universal drive
The factory-installed Spektrum Avian brushless motor is compatible with 4S to 6S LiPo batteries and offers a wide range of performance - from normal flying and basic aerobatics on a 4S LiPo with the included 15x10"E propeller, to much greater power and more complex aerobatics on a 6S LiPo battery with the included 14x7"E propeller (batteries not included)! In addition, the practical top cover with magnetic locking makes it easy to install and remove common and popular 3200–5000 mAh batteries.

Wooden airplane kite
The balsa and plywood (lite-ply) airframe is lightweight, yet stiff and strong. Most parts are factory assembled and finished, including a genuine UltraCote finish. The PNP version also includes durable, factory-installed Spektrum A6380 metal digital servos. In the event that you damage any part of the airframe and are unable to repair it, a full range of spare parts are available.

Easy assembly
The PNP version of the J-3 Cub comes with a factory-installed power system and servos. No glue is required for final assembly, so the model can be ready to fly in a matter of hours.

Detailed processing
A large upper canopy with windshield, transparent windows, seats and a pilot bust complete the scale model look, along with wing struts, tailplane cables and other details.

Chassis options
The package includes a chassis with standard wheels, chassis covers, and Cub wheel covers. You can also install optional DU-BRO Treaded Lightweight Cub Wheels (sold separately) or optional round wheel covers (sold separately). Or you can install optional silver floats (sold separately) and custom strut kits (sold separately) for flying on large ponds or lakes.

Wing options
Optional wings (sold separately) with a shorter span of 1.7m are available, offering different handling and improved aerobatic capabilities. You also have the option of applying black "starburst" decals (sold separately) to the wings and tail.

We recommend buying
To fly the model you will need a 4+ channel RC kit (transmitter and receiver), a 4S-6S 3200–5000mAh LiPo battery with an IC/EC5 connector and a matching charger.

Recommended RC kits Spektrum
For pairing models in PNP versions, we recommend modern programmable RC kits SPEKTRUM:
- Spektrum DX6e DSMX 6-channel DX series transmitter with telemetry, 250 models in memory + AR620 6CH Sport receiver.
- 14-channel NX+ series transmitter Spektrum NX7e+ DSMX with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility + Spektrum AR6610T 6CH receiver.
- 20-channel NX+ series transmitter Spektrum NX8+ DSMX with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity + Spektrum AR8020T 8CH receiver.

Recommended batteries
To power the model, we recommend a LiPol battery with 4-6 cells (14.8–22.2V).
- For economical flying, the 4S Spektrum Smart LiPo 14.8V 5000mAh 30C IC5 LiPo battery with Smart technology.
- More power 6S Spektrum Smart LiPo 22.2V 3200mAh 50C IC5 with Smart technology, or Spektrum Smart G2 LiPo 22.2V 3200mAh 50C IC5 with Smart G2 technology
Spektrum batteries with Smart technology represent the most modern and safest way to maintain and charge batteries today. Find out the benefits of Spektrum Smart technology here.
Smart G2 batteries are even simpler and safer, thanks to the absence of a balance connector. G2 batteries also have up to 3x faster automatic discharge to storage mode. Smart G2 batteries can only be charged on Spektrum Smart chargers.

Recommended chargers for conventional LiPol and Smart batteries
If you decide to use modern Smart LiPo batteries in your RC model airplanes or helicopters, or to charge your batteries from other manufacturers, then we recommend these chargers:
- Spektrum S155 mains charger with one output 1x 55W .
- Spektrum S1100 mains charger with one output 1x 100W .
- Spektrum S2100 mains charger with one output 2x 100W .
- Spektrum S2200 mains charger with two outputs 2x 200W .

Accessories for normal operation
For normal operation of flying RC models you need suitable adhesives, a tool kit and a storage case for LiPol batteries. From our range we recommend a quality set of 1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0mm Allen screwdrivers and Modelcraft Phillips screwdrivers (set of 6). For assembly, Modelcraft mini pliers in a case (set) will certainly come in handy, and for cutting, Modelcraft cutting knife with A6 washer.
For quick repairs of aircraft models, we recommend a fast-curing 4-minute Epoxy glue. From our offer, we recommend Speed Epoxy 4 min. 71g

Protective covers for batteries
Protective packaging is designed to reduce the risk associated with transporting and charging batteries. LiPo batteries can provide high discharge currents and have a large capacity while maintaining small dimensions and low weight. LiPo batteries are particularly susceptible to mechanical damage and therefore need to be carefully protected.
