(Piper Cub Plane) |
Although at this age Piper Cub Plane was very old, but these airplanes were not a few that are still viable to operate. This is probably due to the uniqueness and history of the war so that the owners of these airplanes take good care of this.
For those of you who are in the stages of learning to fly rc airplane, then I think Piper Cub Plane is very suitable for you. Type of engine that use propeller make these rc airplanes flying at low speed so it is more easily controlled than those using jet engines. In addition, the stability of this type of Piper Cub Plane is high enough. It is caused by the placement of the wing at the top position (upper wing). Upper wing configuration like this also allows us to use a shorter runway distance both during take off and during landing.
And those who are already proficient, Piper Cub Plane is capable of landing with the engine turned off. Wing configuration above will produce a larger lift, so it can land by gliding safely. However, for beginners, I still recommend to first learn basic techniques using a simulator.
