E-FLITE UMX J-3 Cub

Radio-Controlled Planes for RC Pilots

Overview

The J-3 Cub is widely regarded as one of the best-flying light aircraft ever built. Originally designed in 1937 to be affordable and forgiving, it helped generations of pilots experience the joy of flight. The E-flite® UMX™ J-3 Cub is an ultra-micro tribute to this aviation icon, offering classic looks and modern performance in a compact, ready-to-fly package.

Lightweight construction, an authentic outline, and molded surface details capture the character of the original aircraft. A 2S brushless outrunner power system provides smooth, slow cruising as well as enough power for basic aerobatics. The integrated AS3X® stabilization system, built into the 6-channel Spektrum™ receiver, is precisely tuned to reduce the effects of wind and turbulence, delivering a stable and natural flying experience that feels like a much larger, well-trimmed scale model.

Factory-applied graphics in Lock Haven Yellow, along with scale wing struts and exposed engine details, enhance realism. Molded hard points allow easy installation of optional floats, making the UMX J-3 Cub suitable for both land and water operations. Whether performing touch-and-go landings or relaxed park flying, this model offers a smooth, realistic, and enjoyable flying experience.
