X-Plane Piper J-3 Cub

Thank you Jenn for this gem of an airplane. I love flying the J-3, I even still fly the old A2A J-3 Cub I purchased for FSX years ago. I got excited when I saw that this was the whole package with all different variants.

I do have one criticism of this airplane though, and I'm just being honest. Comparing it to the A2A Cub which feels spot on when it comes to the accuracy of the flight model, I think the flight model of this plane needs a bit of tweaking to make it a little more accurate. The A2A Cub feels a little more sluggish and a bit lazy compared to this plane which feels a bit too nimble and sporty imo. I still greatly appreciate your efforts Jenn, thank you again.

Lovely airplane. The flight model feels a bit off though. Was it ever updated after the XP11 version 11.30 flight model update?

I really wish you or someone could make a good Lockheed constellation for x plane 11!...... Please!?

Hi, will the X-Plane 11 J-3 Cub work with X-Plane 12?

Hello! I am A-Pilot, the developer of this J-3. My name is Jenn Kimball, not Alex Jenns, you can see my interview on flightsim.com... I am glad to see people still enjoying this little Cub... thank you for uploading it. Guys, sorry about the flaps, there shouldn't be any. I think they may be leftover from the Super Cub I built a while back. Sorry about the late response, I just found this now! All the best, AP

Thanks, Donald USA, My Bad for not figuring out the seating position and flaps, which I should have with a bit of reading up on the J-3 Cub.

Question for the Dev. A-Pilot, will you be releasing this on the Org. as well? I've got a small lua script (high-jacking the Speedbrake control) to operate the Primer. In any event a great plane again for the low and slow enjoyment of my Ortho scenery. TinkerNZ.

Is this plane compatible with a Mac? It says it works on X-plane11 so I'm assuming it does...

TinkerNZ You must fly a Cub solo (if no passenger) and many tail draggers from the rear seat for balance (Center-of Gravity). They have no flaps, you have to "slip" to lose altitude at the last minute. The sound is obviously from a standard sound system for flight sims.

Thank you for this neat plane. It flies great, however, I have a couple of questions.

After installing the default position for the pilot seemed to be the rear seat, is that correct? Or should it be the front seat? I note the external view shows the pilot in the rear seat, so maybe that answers the question I guess. Second, the flaps don't appear to be animated on the wings. I can hear them being applied but can not see them moving at all. Also, there appears to be no flap indicator of any kind in the cockpit indicating what the flap position is and without any animation externally there is no way of knowing what their position is.

Other than that. Great plane and flying experience during the first flight. Looking forward to hearing back from you. TinkerNZ.

Hello Alex … I am a french Piper Cub pilot. Is it possible to add a passenger to your plane? Most of the time I fly with friends and the way I take off and land is very fun... because of the poor visibility. Best regards Olivier
