  The cub has been a lot of fun over the years, but that particular one has been discontinued.  The larger version that I got the wing struts, landing gear covers and wheels from is still available, but runs $199.99

  

  This is the one I want next.  Now that I have a boat I could fly it off several large lakes nearby.

  

  The problem is at $249.99 it cuts into the gun fund.......decisions, decisions.

  That is Dehavalid Beaver float plane,I made a Guillows version(no n float)and it simply wouldn't fly with the rubber band.So I glued the starboard wing back on and put it on display at my local Hobby shop.  https://youtu.be/_4XluyLytrM

  Ok, it seems somebody has made a working 1/4 scale model rotary engine.
