A fresh look at an old friend!

While there’s no end of Cubs to fly, there’s nothing quite like the classic Cub by Great Planes. It’s more than a seamless combination of performance and appearance; it’s assembly ease and affordability, quality and completeness, nostalgic style and sporty performance all wrapped up into one easy-to-like airplane. Docile and forgiving, it’s a fast way for the past-trainer pilot to get to the field and a fond look back at the best of aviation’s “Golden Age.”

Ready for small fields and relaxing flight after just 4-6 hours of assembly.
All-balsa parts offer traditional stick-built strength and straightness, plus assembly ease.
Provides era-authentic looks and details with a near-scale silhouette, a Cub-yellow heat-applied covering, built-in Cub trim scheme and color decals that include NACA numbers and the Cub logo!
Delivers matched-component performance and extra value by including a 280 motor, gearbox, ESC and prop.
Ideal for ROG or hand-launch, and slow enough to fly at nearby parks and sports fields.
Stable and gentle by nature and capable of lazy loops and stall turns on command. Flat-bottom, high-wing design delivers maximum lift and stability, even at slow-as-a-walk flight speeds.

A 280 motor, 3.5:1 gearbox, ESC and 10x7 prop are included and the key to the Cub’s strong performance, scale-like speeds and extended flights!
