BOTTOM LINE

The Carbon-Z SS Cub requires that you do a bit more than just snap on the wings and charge the battery, and it took me about two hours to fully assemble. Nothing during assembly was difficult, and everything went together and fit well.

A lot of subtle changes were made in this new version, and it adds up to a lot. The new color is vibrant, the battery tray is a big improvement, and so are all the scale touches, such as wing thumb screws that are disguised as antennas and fuel caps.
