CubCrafters Introduces Quick Build Program

Gemini Sparkle

Key Takeaways:

  • CubCrafters now offers a Carbon Cub FX quick-build program, allowing pilots to acquire the experimental version with a higher gross weight without building the entire kit.
  • Customers participate in a five-day "builder assist" program at the factory to fabricate parts, satisfying the 51-percent rule, after which CubCrafters completes the aircraft assembly.
  • This experimental Carbon Cub FX offers a significantly higher useful load (over 900 lbs) compared to the LSA version and includes an unusual one-year warranty.
  • The program has limited availability, requires no prior technical experience from the customer, and the base price for the Carbon Cub FX is $204,990.

In order to offer the popular Carbon Cub with the experimental gross weight limit to pilots who don’t want to build the entire Carbon Cub EX-2 kit, CubCrafters is now offering a quick build program.

CubCrafters’ Carbon Cub FX builder assist program involves the customer in the construction of steel, composite and aluminum parts in order to satisfy the 51-percent rule, a process that takes only five days at the Yakima, Washington factory.
