FMS PA-18 Super Cub PNP V2 kit

PA-18 Super Cub V2: Dominate Any Terrain, Even the Toughest

The PA-18 Super Cub from FMS isn’t just a simple leisure aircraft; it’s a true adventure machine. This V2 version further enhances an already legendary concept by incorporating the latest technological advancements for a more realistic and safer flying experience.

STOL Capabilities and High-Strength Landing Gear

This model stands out with its oversized “Tundra” tires mounted on spring landing gear, capable of absorbing shocks on the roughest runways (tall grass, dirt, rocks). Thanks to its functional flaps, the Super Cub can take off in an incredibly short distance and land smoothly at walking speed.

Cutting-Edge Electronics: Reflex V3 System Included

To ensure a worry-free flight in any condition, FMS includes the Reflex V3 stabilizer as standard. This 3-axis gyroscope acts as an invisible copilot: it locks in your flight path against the wind and offers an auto-leveling mode to correct minor piloting mistakes.

Quick Assembly and Powerful Brushless Motor

The Super Cub V2 is designed to be ready to fly in less than 10 minutes thanks to its tool-free assembly system. Under the hood, the 3541-750KV Brushless motor paired with a 45A ESC delivers ample power for towing small gliders or performing basic aerobatics, all powered by a simple 4S LiPo battery.

Main Features of This V2 Version:

• 1700 mm Wingspan: Majestic presence in the air and great stability.

• Reflex V3 Stabilization: Assisted flying for maximum safety.

• Balloon Tires: Land anywhere with confidence.

• Functional Flaps: For ultra-slow and realistic approaches.

• Navigation LEDs: For a scale look and better visibility.

• PNP Version: Install your receiver, plug in your battery, and fly!

Pilot’s Opinion

"The Super Cub 1700mm is one of our favorites at FlashRC. What we love is its versatility: it can fly calmly and smoothly or transform into a rugged bush plane. It’s the perfect plane to move up to after a trainer. My advice: Use a 4S 2600mAh LiPo battery for perfect balance and enough flight time to fully enjoy your sessions!"
