I was pretty excited to see this until I saw the 27 to 31 pound weight! Chubby Cub for sure.

That's at least three or more pounds heavier than the Aero-works version.

I could definitely trade in my 1/4 scale Cub for this one!

I dont care if it is fat. Looks to handle beautifully and the XPwer 60cc motor will have no trouble yanking this around.

It might look thinner on top of a pair of floats. The big wheels make it look fat.



Chubby Chaser.


I will be selling a H9 1/4 and floats - unopened. Going to standardize on 60cc Electric

I don't guess that weight is with the PRbush wheels. That might push 40lbs.

does the RC world really need another cub and one at 900 bucs ?

dont get me wrong it's a cool plane its just been done over and over again plus I don't really like buying a special cub only for it to be discontinued with the next two years. were I will never be able to get a cowl or parts again

No other Cub has an led lighting system, tow-release mechanism, 7" Sullivan wheels or multiple engine mounts as standard equipment. I'm sure this airplane will be very popular and around for years to come.
