Je n'ai pas eu de chance, il manquait les guignols, les ressorts et les haubans du stabilisateur.
Après réclamation, HK m'a envoyé gratuitement les guignols du HK J3 Navy Cub qui sont identiques. Merci HK. Je réaliserai le reste moi même.

Very nice construction and detail. Flies slow and scale or will do easy loops and aileron rolls.
Everything worked well on mine. It has survived a few crashes with minimal damage. My favorite plane until I bent the prop adapter, seems to be a hard to find part.

Wow, it's way better than i expected. Arrived well boxed and undamaged. No factory dings in the skin. Very well molded and finished, all parts present. A great value for $75.53. I haven't tested the electronics, or assembled it yet, but its a beautiful model.
HK said they have electronic parts, but no body replacement parts. Told me to Email
"support@hobbyking.zendesk.com" for manufacturer info. I hope it assembles as good as it looks. Five stars so far. Thanks again HK!

Minuses

The yellow paint withstands almost nothing it go very easily by
Cantilevered wings are cheap plastic
Suspensions in cheap plastic with a metal hanger that does not fit properly into the groove on the hull
Skrews for mounting servohorn are too long
Servo cable y cable is too short and you try to bypass the y- cable is vingeservokabler also for short.
Cables from bec and esc is too short
Rudder wheel locks for rudder at full scale , this quick fix is ​​less deflection on rudders .
Wing Collection yawn in front so we were forced to glue the wings together , which was not following the recipe.

Pluses
It is not that expensive , so let's just say a cheap fly .
If you make an effort with a lot of that new solutions can be an okay school flies .
Motor works strong in testing on the ground, we have to see what happens when it gets in the air it flies with 4s
Despite the cheap plastic suspension feels like it has excellent suspension .

This is my first plane and it is a dream to fly. I love it. You can putter along at half throttle and get the feel for it, then floor it for aerobatic fun. And it's super cheap, so you will not cry too much when you break something.

And you will break something, namely the landing gear, which is thin, brittle plastic. Then you will search for parts, and find them very scarce. Since I own a 3D printer, I designed and printed my own replacement parts. You can find them on the Thingiverse website if you search for "J3 cub".

Apart from the flimsy landing gear, the plane is nicely done. I did add a stiffener to the elevators since the foam bridge between the two halves is too soft. Apart from that, it goes together easily despite the mostly worthless directions (which are for an older version and contain pictures far too tiny to make out what they are showing). A little common sense will see you through. Or a google search for a build log.
