The L-4 was the military version of the J-3 Cub, Piper said that the conversion to a military spec was no more difficult than some green paint! Used for artillery fire direction, front line liaison, glider pilot instruction and as a courier plane, it would be fair to say that the L-4 was a total success in military form, the L-4 also has the distinction of participating in the last dogfight of WW2 (ETO) when it was involved in a pistol fight with a Fiesler Storch!
This superbly built ARF suits a 20cc gas engine and of course would also accept around 1.20 glow, it would also be an easy electric conversion, requiring a minimum of a 6s power train. The scale color scheme features invasion stripes, ideal for orientation, also there are many scale details that will make this a model to be proud of, they include full scale, working under-carriage, scale rigging and struts, vac formed windows and so on. For practicality, one door is hinged and secured with magnets, and the 2pc removable wing makes transportation a synch.
