New developer Big Tire Productions has released their first aircraft for X-Plane, the CubCrafters Carbon Cub EX. The Carbon Cub is a revamped version of the Piper Super Cub which features usage of modern materials such as carbon fiber, allowing it to operate in very short fields.

The Carbon Cub's features include:

Liveries from legendary STOL pilots:

• Kevin Quinn
• Bobby Breenden
• Mark Patey

Panel options:

• VFR with Electronics International instruments
• Executive Glass with dual-axis autopilot
  

Technical features:

• FMOD sound
• High-res PBR textures inside and out
• Incredible flight model
• Simulated hydroplaning

Announced just over two weeks ago, the Carbon Cub from Big Tire Productions is a welcome addition to the ever growing collection of general aviation aircraft in X-Plane. Being a Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) aircraft, it's an interesting option for those who do bush/backcountry flying.

The Big Tire Productions CubCrafters Carbon Cub is available on the X-Plane.org store for 34.95 (USD) and can be found here.
