If you are looking for a Beginner-friendly Real-scale Pa-18 Piper Cub FPV version that can fly for a long time in the air you might want to check out the CraycleCub 800 mm FPV Trainer Plane.
The CraycleCub is based on the classic PA-18 Piper Cub design but with FPV compatibility. It has a durable Regular PLA construction, a strong fuselage for powerful brushless motors, a 3D Printed propeller spinner, a quick-release landing gear, and a steerable tail wheel. You can print this model with LW-PLA to make a park flyer.
CraycleCub provides nice VTX cooling for any FPV system in the market. Also like a real Pa-18 Piper Cub, it has extra motor cooling vents into the side of the fuselage. The wingspan is 800 mm, which makes it easy to transport and store.
The CraycleCub is suitable for beginners who want to learn how to fly FPV, as well as intermediate and advanced pilots who want to have some fun in the air. You can experience the thrill of flying from the cockpit of a plane. It is easy to set up, easy to fly, and easy to enjoy.
For Who?
You don’t need any carbon rod to build this plane and CraycleCub flies super stable and slow even if it's printed with Regular PLA. If you are an FPV Pilot, a Beginner, or a Piper Cub lover, then this model is for you.
