Minicraft Piper Super Cub Floatplane 1/48 Scale

i'm building a huge O scale diorama of a fishing lodge and i needed a float plane. this fits the bill perfectly.

I love plane models, especially float plane models. This is a fun little kit. The Piper Cub is universally known among flyers, so it's a nice conversation piece.

I build loads of models.I go the extra mile for realism and accuracy.This model is a very poor choice.Parts don’t fit.The engine hood and cowling did not even remotely fit the nose of the fuselage.No guides to help align parts when gluing together.The floats did yes.But no other parts.Some parts were deformed or distorted.I got through it yes.Looks great yes.But that’s because of my experience and attention to detail.I don’t suggest this product if yer a beginner or not have the ability to modify parts to make fit.

great ol plane !!! Arrived on time. Is a great 1-48 scale...awsome. The kit is just what I expected. Yaa Hoo....

Ended up throwing the model in the trash.

A bit smaller than expected.

The motor is close impossible to set on the plane.. I had to do with out; the floats are the hardest no holes on the fuselage to guide. Good Luck!!

Pretty good I have built this before years ago.
