Overview
NE-1 Cub 2400mm (94.5") Wingspan - ARF from Nexa - NXA1053-001
The Piper J-3 Cub is an American light aircraft that was built between 1938 and 1947 by Piper Aircraft. The aircraft has a simple, lightweight design which gives it good low-speed handling properties and short-field performance. 230 dual-controlled versions were built for the United States Navy with a NE-1 designation.
The Nexa NE-1 Cub can be built as either gas or electric powered, with a large door for battery access. Being lightweight with a high wing, this plane has a similar flying feel to a high wing trainer. Fully covered in weathered detail and including a working pilot door, this NE-1 Cub is perfect for those who love scale planes.

I built ski's for it and it's my winter bird. Do not use CA glue for the hinges like the manual says! Use canopy glue or 30 minute epoxy for the working time. Had to add some lead to the engine mount to get CG right. JI Joe makes and excellent pilot! -Matt

It is still a pain to put and hookup the servos thru the side door and if you go electric, changing the batteries. The wings attach thru the fuse, better then the L-4. Now the 2 big problems, first they pack it very good except for the wings, they tape a piece of thick paper between the wings to protect them from scratching each other but the tape is stronger then the covering. Peel the tape off gently or you will tear the covering at the wing tip seam like I did. 2 the biggest issue is Nexa is color blind, the Navy tri-color scheme was dark sea blue on top, intermediate blue on the sides and insigna white on the bottom. What you get is a darker inter. blue on top, a pale sea foam green on the sides and RAF sky green for the ins. white. The graphics are nice, the landing gear with spring suspension is very nice. I have to wait to build mine cause I am going to paint it in proper colors and use Callie Graphics, which she already has a NE-1 set. I have to wait for warmer weather in a couple of months to paint it outside because of it's size.
