Key Takeaways:

CubCrafters is launching a "Carbon Cub FX" quick-build program, allowing pilots to acquire the experimental Carbon Cub with its higher gross weight limit without fully building the kit.
The program requires customers to participate in a five-day fabrication process at the factory to satisfy the 51-percent rule, after which CubCrafters assembles the aircraft.
The Carbon Cub FX offers an experimental gross weight of 1,865 lbs, providing over 900 pounds of useful load, a significant increase over the LSA version.
Priced at $204,990, this quick-build experimental aircraft is notable for including a one-year warranty, which is unusual in its category.

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.
