One of the most recognized names in aviation history is the Piper J-3 Cub. A child of the Depression, Mr. Piper's Cub began production in the early '30s, evolving into the 65 HP J-3 version in 1939. Proliferating in the years before and during WWII, the Cub has introduced more young men to the joys of flight than any other airplane ever. Now you can own a part of aviation's history and enjoy the relaxing and realistic flight characteristics of the venerable J-3 Cub. Thunder Tiger's ARF J-3 has been meticulously built from the finest material and covered with UltraCote® in the classic Cub Yellow color scheme. Scale details such as wing struts, landing gear bungees, Cub wheels, accurately contoured fuselage, and dummy engine cylinder heads create a head-turning beauty. Only a few hours of enjoyable assembly and you are ready to step back in time and be a part of history by flying the classic, IMAA legal J-3 Cub. Specs:
