Adventures in Cub building

[Tiger Tim]

My understanding is that the Reed STC was developed exactly for the reason that you stated, not for improved aerobatic capability.

I had heard the same, and also that clipping the wings from the root end had the additional effect of really perking up the roll rate which got it noticed as a cheap aerobatic machine.

I did my tailwheel checkout in a homebuilt clip wing Cub with an Aerovee-carbed O-200 on it. Lovely airplane to fly.

Mike Finney's home built clipped Cub from Wag Aero plans. He absolutely loves it.

Bumping an old thread to see if there was any progress on the fuselage?

(I finished and fly a Wag Aero Cubby. Love it so much I want to scratch build another one.)

I could not get it to fit in my plumbing shop. And I’m not adding on to my shop, lol.

currently working on gear for a baby Ace.
