8,419 RedBeard66  9.1 years ago

This is my little Piper Cub that I designed less to look like, but more to have the exact specs of the real plane (weight, wing area, prop size and power) for this competition ive added a little weight and power so that she will fly perfectly level and wont be so intolerably slow!
