Default Help Cessna 182 or a Piper Cub

Which wouls you suggest as my next plane? A 81" wingspan .60 size Cessna 182 Skylane or a .60 size Piper Cub. If you chose the Piper Cub which one the 90" wingspan from Great Planes or 105" wingspan from Sig. If you chose the Sig do you think a 23cc Gasoline engine would be to big for the plane?

182.... I love my Cubs, but they are limited and will usually get boring. Not to mention winds blow em around some...

i've had two goldberg anniversary cubs that i built to the clipped wing version. i put k&b 65 sportsters on them. did you ever see a cub do a lomchevoc? unlimited vertical, five foot take off roll, and with this engine it balances perfectly. good luck.
