SportLite LLC STOL Super Cub

25.2k JacobHardy64  8.9 years ago
Auto Credit Based on 1PlainPlanes's Cessna 170B

Original cub by sgriggs0525, I decided I should make such a beautiful classic have modern STOL technology. This aircraft features redesigned wings, new paint, and an airbrake that is also an engine cowl! Stalls at 60mph. This speed is a little fast for a STOL, as the Hawk X2B stalls at 25 mph, but remember this aircraft is fairly large aircraft. Minimum fuel payload, but feel free to change that, while keeping CoM and CoL placement in mind. AG1 for engine. Please rate and enjoy!

    Lol, something my hawk X2B can't do. Except for the fact that it takes off before the tower XD @jimbojet
