Update.
All LODs done. DP done. Weapons done. Sounds are going to be from FS04 so they are done. .Air file is okay I guess. New/Alt paint is WIP as well. 2d panel not started. Maybe look for better gauges too.

Thanks Allen. This will be fun. I actually got to pilot one of these little beauties for a few hours back when I was getting my tail dragger training.
Cheers,
Captain Kurt

Thank you, Allen! A very nice little airplane!
I fly a Super Cub in real life, among other planes, and I love it!
Isn't the Super Cub just a Cub with flaps, wet wings and a bigger engine?
"Let Being Helpful Be More Important Than Being Right!" Some SOH Founder.
The PA-18 Super Cub is basically the same airframe, with a few changes. It has the fuel tanks in the wings, therefore can be flown solo from the front seat. Most have flaps, and there were several engine choices available, up to 180 hp.
Ours is a 1960 model, with a 95 hp engine and no flaps.
Looks like a nice project.... I did this just last nite... on a sudden urge lol.
A question... does the glass on the top of the cabin extend all the way to the trailing edge of the wing?
G.
I meant how far does the greenhouse extend...
Here is the other texture...

Maybe once the float L-4 is done I'll work on a L-18C Super Cub.
@gaucho_59 This wireframe may help you. Attachment 85876

Thanks for the float version, Allen!
Gaucho59, I found this picture of a real L-4, it shows the size of the glass on the fuselage. Hope that it helps.
This does the trick... Thank you. Using it I added the actuating rods for the aileraons...
G.
The burn out is real now but progress on a L-18C Super Cub.
