Piper Super Cub by Simon Smeiman

(for MS Flight Simulator FS2004, FSX and FSX SP2/Acceleration)

The Piper Super Cub for FS9 and FSX of Simon Smeiman of South Africa comes in 4 versions of the aircraft  for three different configurations of MS Flight Simulator.

When purchasing the package you will receive 3 files and you can install any of them, depending on your current Flight Simulator installation.
There is a version for FS2004, one for FSX ‘default’ (without Service Packs) and one for FSX SP2/Accelleration.
Please also see the reservations at the end of the page!

Today, the Super Cub is still manufactured as the PA-18 "Top Cub" from Cub Crafters in Yakima, Washington. Many enthusiasts all over the world also tackle it as “home build” projects. Thanks to them we will hopefully see Super Cubs dancing in the clouds for many years to come.

The Flight Simulator model is based on the “Top Cub”. The “blue prints” of the real world full size Super Cub were as far as possible used in the design of this model. The full package contains the following four versions:

•  Wheels for land surface operations.
•  Ski’s for snow surfaces as well as dry land operations.
•  Floats for water surface operations.
•  Tundra Tires for soft surface operations.

There is also a paint kit included and a nice 22-page handbook showing you the workings of the Pipers in every detail.

Some animations include:

•  Pilot, moving head, arms and legs
•  Cowl doors
•  Passenger doors
•  Window and cabin ventilation
•  Elevator trim

 
And of course there are various landing gear configurations, with animated ski action and water rudders where applicable.

Simon already had over 5000 downloads of the free demo version of the package. If you want to support his work in future, then just $ 11,11 for the full package is not that much, and you get the nice tundra wheeled version in addition, plus the repaint kit. You can of course continue to fly the free models instead. Isn’t that a great deal!?

 Please note:

(After at least ONE complaint, let me be VERY clear about this product:
The Cub is designed using FSDS, in FS9. It has been made to work in FSX without patches. It has been tested (see screenshots) in FSX with Acceleration (and SP2), and it works fine.
We figured that would be enough and honest information for any prospective customer…… but, to be totally clear:

It has NOT been tested with FSX in DX10 preview (demo!) mode, nor will it probably work in Bruce Artwick’s Flight Simulator, in MS FS1.0, FS2.0, FS3.0, FS4.0, FS5.0, FS5.1, FS95, FS98, FS2000 or FS2002. We also have not tested it with Windows Vista (although it should work at least with Vista 32 bit).

As with all downloaded and non-returnable products, we do NOT do refunds, unless a product is physically defective.
