Carbon Cub SS



Carbon Cub SS


 


SAFETY
The Carbon Cub SS is equipped with VGs and inertia reel shoulder harnesses. Stall speed is a very slow 32 MPH and the cabin is reinforced at the shoulder harness attach points, making these points the strongest in the airframe. The carbon fiber seat up front is not just comfortable, but extremely strong, protecting the pilot in all directions. Steel tubes in the fuselage were not sized just for flight loads, but crash loads were considered as well. Optional 2nd generation Amsafe airbags just add to this safety advantage and the confidence you will have when flying this modern Cub.

 

PERFORMANCE
The Carbon Cub SS is a POWERFUL airplane. It has no equal in takeoff and landing performance, takeoff in two or three lengths of the airplane when you are light, and four of five at gross weight! Speaking of performance, this plane will climb at over 2,100 feet per minute at sea level and still be climbing at over 1,100 feet per minute at 10,000 feet. Level off at 7,500 feet in less than 5 minutes after takeoff! Cruise at or near the speed limit for LSA aircraft… even with 29” tundra tires.

This power and performance is matched only by the its' nimble handling and slow speed manners. The fun factor is off the chart. Whether flying around the patch, camping, or more serious flying, the Carbon Cub SS will always deliver!
