Paint Blem - VA-Model 59" EPP FULL FUSE - Piper L-4U Cub Green

Printing has rubbed off in a few areas, mostly on the elevator. It is hardly noticeable and a great way to save!

Meet the VA Models Piper J-3 Cub! Inspired by the full-scale Piper, this 55-inch full-fuselage EPP model combines realistic appearance, smooth handling, and an impressive aerobatic flight envelope.

Its lightweight European EPP construction delivers the durability of a foam aircraft while providing the look and feel of a larger built-up model. The Decathlon remains stable and predictable at lower speeds, yet has the power and control authority needed for sport aerobatics, tumbles, and 3D flying.

The spacious fuselage arrives largely assembled and allows nearly all electronics to be installed internally for a clean finished appearance. Removable wings make transportation easier, while the model’s neutral handling makes it enjoyable for progressing pilots and experienced aerobatic flyers alike.
