Airplanes


50% Ultimate 20-300

This newly released Ultimate is designed for a 200cc-275cc motor.

The entire Ultimate wing design was made so flying wires would not be needed and assembly times would be fast.

2-lower carbon fiber wing tubes proved all the strength needed with a single C/F tub for the top wing.

The Ultimate was originally designed to be the smallest airframe possible for use with the 3W-275cc motor. I did this so this airframe would have the most available power to weight available for this engine/airplane combination.

The J-3 Cub

The Piper J-3 Cub is a small, simple, light aircraft that was built between 1937 and 1947 by Piper Aircraft. With tandem (fore and aft) seating, it was intended for flight training but became one of the most popular and best-known light aircraft of all time. An icon of the era, the J-3 Cub has long been loved by pilots and non-pilots alike, with thousands still in use today. Piper sold 19,073 J-3s between 1938 and 1947. Now you can own a piece of history with Bill Hempel’s HUGE J-3 Cubs. Bill offers 3 different sizes of Cubs in 40%, 50% and 60% scale. Click here to make your choice!
